What Are the Symptoms?

Advil^® Cold & Sinus Caplets

For over 20 years, people have trusted Advil^® Cold & Sinus for powerful, non-drowsy relief of their tough cold and sinus symptoms.

Advil Cold & Sinus

Many people attribute sinus pressure to an increase in mucus which blocks their airways. While it is true that increased mucus is a symptom of the common cold, it is not always what makes you feel so stuffed up. Sinus congestion can also be associated with the swelling of the tissues in the nose known as inflammation. The result is a shrinking of your airways.

Advil^® Cold & Sinus combines the relief of a strong decongestant to open your airways with the power of Advil^® to relieve the pain commonly associated with sinus pressure.

Advil^® Cold & Sinus is available behind the pharmacy counter.

Marsha	Relief Advil^® Cold & Sinus has been the only thing that has helped me. I felt relief from sinus headache in a matter of an hour. I have used a lot of other products but I need to say this is my favorite by far! I can sleep at night.
Kandi	2 Weeks of Misery I had a severe cold for almost 2 weeks. I used generic formulas from several stores and I got some relief, but not much. I just took an Advil^® Cold & Sinus this morning and I feel better than I have in 2 weeks. It is a miracle! Thank you!
Janette	Thank You! Thank you for rescuing me! I swear by Advil^® Cold & Sinus when I have a cold. We've tried many other products and this is the only one that gives us fast relief and allows us to return to school/work without looking and feeling ill. Love it.
Camilla	Finally, Relief I have tried almost everything on the market to help with my sinus headaches. My daughter told me to try Advil^® Cold & Sinus. Thank heavens I did!
David	Best Stuff Ever I've tried all the other "Cold & Sinus" products and none of them compare. I don't care when they hassle me to show a driver's license to purchase it at the Walgreens either. It's worth it.
Samantha	Advil^® Cold & Sinus I use Advil^® Cold & Sinus whenever I have a really bad cold. It works better than other cold and sinus medicines, and I know I can always count on it when I need to be at my best!
Zaneta	Works Wonders I used Advil^® Cold & Sinus for the first time today and it works just as the pharmacist said. I have a cold with a headache and nasal congestion. It started working within 20-30 minutes after taking it. Relieved my headache and nasal congestion!

Amy	It works! Went to work one morning, couldn't breathe, couldn't smell or taste anything at all. I was completely clogged up. Advil^® Cold & Sinus is awesome. I would say within an hour my nose was unclogged and I could breathe again. I couldn't believe it, now if I get sick, it’s the only medicine I will take- it is the only thing that works well for me. Thanks Advil^®!!!
Lauren	12 hour work day Had to work a double today all stuffed up. Advil^® Cold & Sinus got me through that day with just two pills. I took one in the beginning of the day and one about 6 hours later. If it wasn't for them I would have been hiding in the bathroom sleeping on the baby changing table.
