What is Sudafed Sinus Pain Relief Tablets?

Sudafed Sinus Pain Relief Tablets are a form of treatment that works to provide relief for pain in the sinuses and also symptoms associated with a cold and the flu. These tablets work thanks to the active ingredients that are contained in them, which are:

  • Ibuprofen
  • Phenylephrine

Ibuprofen is a drug that’s part of a group of drugs known as Non-steroidal Anti-inflammatory Drugs (NSAID). These drugs work by changing how the body responds to pain, swelling and a high temperature. Phenylephrine is a decongestant that helps to relieve the effects of a blocked nose.

 

What causes a cold or the flu?

The symptoms of a cold and the flu are both caused by an infection that spreads from person-to-person. The infection can get into the body through the eyes, nose, or mouth after germs enter the air after someone has coughed or sneezed. Germs can also get onto the hands and end up on hard surfaces, where they can last for up to 24 hours.
