FAQ

  • How do Sudafed Sinus Pressure & Pain Tablets work?

    Sudafed Sinus Pressure & Pain Tablets contain two active ingredients. Ibuprofen is a Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory (NSAID) that combats the pain and inflammation associated with sinusitis. Pseudoephedrine hydrochloride is a potent decongestant which acts on alpha receptors in the blood vessel walls, narrowing them, effectively reducing congestion, and stemming the production of excess mucus.

  • What's sinusitis? 

    Sinus inflammation and infections can cause a headache-like sensation at the base of your eyebrows and forehead. It can also spread across your cheeks, under your eyes, and in your nose. Also known as sinus infections, sinusitis is when the tissue lining your sinuses becomes inflamed. And when this happens, this causes sinusitis.
