Night Nurse Capsules are used for the short-term relief of night-time cold and flu symptoms, including headache, fever, sore throat, dry cough, runny nose, shivers, and aches and pains, while helping you get a restful night's sleep.

The capsules contain paracetamol to relieve pain and reduce fever, dextromethorphan to suppress a dry cough, and promethazine, an antihistamine that helps relieve a runny nose and causes drowsiness to aid sleep.

Night Nurse Capsules are suitable for adults and young people aged 16 years and over. They are not recommended for children under 16 years of age.

Take two capsules with water at bedtime. Do not take more than one dose in a 24-hour period unless advised by a healthcare professional. Always follow the instructions on the packaging.

No. Night Nurse Capsules contain promethazine, which causes drowsiness. They are intended for use at bedtime only.

Do not take Night Nurse Capsules with other medicines containing paracetamol or other cough, cold, or sleep remedies unless advised by a doctor or pharmacist.

No. Alcohol can increase the sedative effects of Night Nurse Capsules and should be avoided while taking this medicine.

No. Night Nurse Capsules can cause significant drowsiness and may impair your ability to drive or operate machinery. Only drive if you are certain you are not affected.

If you are pregnant, planning a pregnancy, or breastfeeding, speak to your doctor or pharmacist before using Night Nurse Capsules to ensure they are suitable for you.

If your symptoms last longer than 3 days, worsen, or are accompanied by a persistent high fever, difficulty breathing, or chest pain, stop using the medicine and consult your doctor or pharmacist.
