Why does this Panadol act faster?

If we look at the label of this panadol, the small prints say its "fast, soothing relief from colds." Why is pain-reliever more effective, faster and better? Why? wHy? WHY???
Panadol Cold & Flu - Hot Remedy

If we look at the contents of a satchet,
Paracetamol 750mg,
Phenylephrine Hydrochloride 10mg,
Vitamin C 60mg
                                          -------per 5g sachet.

Gosh! A standard tablet of panadol purchased from a clinic contains 500mg of paracetamol, we usually advised patients to consume 2 tablets, up to 4 times a day, that's 1g consumed..

If you consume this sachet of panadol, I cannot understand how and why it will work any faster......

Headache? Just pop any 2 panadol tablets... it won’t be faster than other Panadol.
