UPC: 016500583455
Alka-Seltzer Plus Sinus, Allergy & Cough Maximum Strength PowerMax Gels are a multi-symptom over-the-counter medication designed to provide relief from sinus congestion, runny nose, sneezing, itchy eyes, headache, and cough. The manufacturer formulates it with four active ingredients: acetaminophen as a pain reliever and fever reducer, dextromethorphan HBr as a cough suppressant, doxylamine succinate as an antihistamine, and phenylephrine HCl as a nasal decongestant.
This product is notable for its PowerMax designation, which the manufacturer describes as offering concentrated power in a liquid gel capsule that is 25% smaller than their original Cold & Flu Liquid Gels for easier swallowing. It is intended for fast-acting relief, with directions advising adults and children 12 years and over to take two capsules with water every four hours. The package contains 24 liquid gels, and other variants in the line include Sinus Congestion & Pain Maximum Strength PowerMax Gels and a Day & Night version.
