DanJARMouse · 01/04/2009 11:16

I havent got the box for my sudofed tablets anymore, but want to know if I can take them along side Beechams cold and flu tablets?!

I am absolutely full of it - my eyes and nose feel very full of crap and Im in pain!

I took Beechams about 9am and wondering if I can take sudofed or not!

TIA x

No idea, but their site may help.

Hope you feel better soon.

Not if it's the sudafed with the paracetomol (think it's called cold and flu?) My sudafed box is just the decongestant ones, so I do usually take them alongside a paracetomol or ibuprofen. But there are different kinds..the pills are yellow? (mine)

If you're not sure, wait another hour, then you'll be Ok

Hope you feel better soon!

If in any doubt, give your local chemist a call. They'll tell you.

website doesn't mention beechams but says not to take with products containing acitaminophen if that helps

thanks all. they are just the decongestant ones, so will chance it.

Luckily DH is keeping kids entertained so I can die quietly! (payback time from when DH was very poorly with flu 3 weeks ago!)

I've got sudafed, but it expired in 2004
It says do not take with any other paracetamol-containing products. Can't find anything else on the box.
Hope you're feeling better soon

If the beechams cold and flu contain a decongestant (pseudoephedrine or phenylephrine) then NO!
