Is a Lemsip Max just a paracetamol?

The_Mike_Drop@lemmy.world to No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world – 65 points –

I have a man cold and taking my usual bowl of chicken soup washed down with a Lemsip Max but now I'm thinking... if the main ingrediant of a Lemsip is paracetamol, why don't I just have a paracetamol? It'd cost alot less.

Whats the point of a Lemsip other than the paracetamol?

Thank you.

Now that you've read this, you now have a cold sorry thats just how this one works.

What exactly is a "man cold?"

Its like a regular cold, butbwith more complaining.

I never understood this- if i get a cold, I deny its existence and power through. Most of the time my wife doesn't even know I was sick.

Cold that smells like Cool Sport Rush Wolf Power Machinery.

Somewhere south of "man flu" but north of "the sniffles"
