Diana Posted November 18, 2005 Share Posted November 18, 2005 I feel the start of my first ever french cold coming on, sore throat, blocked/runny nose etc. In the UK I would have headed straight for the Day and Night Nurse. Can I buy anything similar over the counter here.ThanksDiana Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teamedup Posted November 18, 2005 Share Posted November 18, 2005 Can't remember what it is called but there is something like lemsip, only you will be told that it has to be mixed with tiede water rather than hot. As far as I know there is only one of these products in France. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agenais Posted November 18, 2005 Share Posted November 18, 2005 There seems to be an array of medicines for coughs and colds in our chemists, from herbal to very chemical. Night and Day Nurse is only paracetamol with a decongestant, (and lots of colourings), they will certainly have something that has a decongestant in it amongst their array of medicines. Paracetamol, effervescent vitamin c and a decongestant spray, that's what this nurse recommends Hope you feel better soon......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chrisb Posted November 21, 2005 Share Posted November 21, 2005 .......................but watch out when you take the night-time tablet, they really space me out, so much so that the last time I took one, I was still so woozy the next morning, that I took half my car off on the gate-post coming back from dropping my son off at the school bus!!RegardsChris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
