Ingredients

Sudafed Decongestant Liquid typically contains pseudoephedrine hydrochloride as its active ingredient, which helps relieve nasal and sinus congestion. It may also contain additional ingredients such as flavourings, sweeteners and preservatives to improve taste and stability. The full list of ingredients and their strengths can be found on the packaging and patient information leaflet.

Always check the label carefully if you have allergies or are sensitive to certain ingredients.
