  • $45.50


Influbene cold drink is intended to relieve the symptoms of colds and flu.

It contains three active ingredients:

  • Paracetamol, a well-known pain reliever (analgesic). It is effective against pain, including headaches and sore throats, and can also reduce fever (antipyretic).
  • Guaifenesin (an expectorant) loosens phlegm, thereby helping to relieve a phlegm-like cough.
  • Phenylephrine hydrochloride (a nasal decongestant) reduces swelling of the nasal airways and therefore relieves nasal congestion.

You should only take Influbene Cold Drink if you have pain or fever, runny nose and cough with congestion.

If you do not feel better or if you feel worse after 3 days, contact your doctor.
