These tablets are also effective for soothing headaches and body aches. Paracetamol is an analgesic which reduces symptoms such as a sore throat or headache, while pseudoephedrine hydrochloride is a decongestant which constricts the blood vessels in your nasal passages, reducing congestion and phlegm production.
