About DEXTROMETHORPHAN(10MG) + PHENYLPHRINE(5MG) + CHLORPHENIRAMINE(2MG)

Introduction

This medicine is a combination of three active ingredients: Dextromethorphan (10mg), Phenylphrine (5mg), and Chlorpheniramine (2mg). It is commonly used to provide relief from symptoms associated with common cold, flu, and allergies. This combination works together to address multiple symptoms such as cough, nasal congestion, and runny nose.

Uses

This medicine is used to relieve symptoms of common cold and flu including: - Dry cough - Nasal congestion and stuffiness - Runny nose - Sneezing - Watery eyes - Allergic rhinitis symptoms - Upper respiratory tract infections with multiple cold symptoms

Benefits

This combination medicine provides relief from multiple cold and flu symptoms at once. Dextromethorphan helps suppress dry cough, Phenylphrine reduces nasal congestion by shrinking swollen blood vessels in the nose, and Chlorpheniramine relieves runny nose, sneezing, and watery eyes. The combined action helps patients feel more comfortable and allows better rest during recovery from cold or flu.

Side effects

Common side effects include drowsiness, dizziness, dry mouth, nausea, headache, nervousness, and difficulty sleeping. Some people may experience blurred vision, constipation, or upset stomach. Most side effects are mild and temporary, disappearing as your body adjusts to the medicine. However, if you experience severe dizziness, fast heartbeat, difficulty urinating, or unusual mood changes, contact your doctor promptly.

How to use

Take this medicine exactly as directed by your doctor or pharmacist. It can be taken with or without food, but taking it with food may help reduce stomach upset. Swallow the tablet/capsule whole with water; do not crush or chew unless advised. Use the measuring cup provided if it is a liquid form. Do not exceed the recommended dose. Complete the prescribed course even if you feel better.

How it works

This medicine works through three mechanisms: Dextromethorphan acts on the cough center in the brain to suppress the cough reflex. Phenylphrine is a decongestant that narrows blood vessels in the nasal passages, reducing swelling and congestion. Chlorpheniramine is an antihistamine that blocks histamine release, thereby reducing runny nose, sneezing, and watery eyes associated with allergies and colds.
