lemsip is okay but not the lemsip max. Just make sure you buy the one with just paracetimol in it. ------------- Jayde 25/12/04 Alyssa 08/04/03 http://Alyayde.bebo.com |

I was told both the normal lemsip and lemsip max were fine by the pharmasist (sp?). I did have a lemsip max the other day and felt yuk afterwards. Maybe just stick to the normal one and let us know what the midwife says.  ------------- http://lilypie.com">

Lemsip is fine - though to tell you the truth, a nice warm drink of lemon, honey and a little bit of ginger with a couple of panadol on the side is tastier - and even better still if you can get someone else to prepare it for you. ------------- |

I don't mind the Lemsip taste, I just dumped a giant teaspoons worth of honey in it... can't remember where I put my panadol. Hubby made me a cuppa of lemon and ginger with honey last night and that was nice too. Didn't think to ask m/w about Lemsip Max, sorry ! ------------- Jacquie - Mama to Erin, 13.07.06 - Chief Cat Chaser & Marmite Sammie Eater

just dont take the lemsip and panadol, as you'll be getting a double shot of paracetamol if you do! ------------- Mel, Mummy to E: 6, B: 4 and:
