About LEVOCLOPERASTINE(20MG/5ML) + CHLORPHENIRAMINE(4MG/5ML)
Introduction
This medicine is a combination of two active ingredients: Levocloperastine (20mg/5ml) and Chlorpheniramine (4mg/5ml). It is available as an oral liquid formulation. This combination is commonly used to relieve cough and associated allergic symptoms.
Uses
This medicine is used to treat dry cough and cough associated with respiratory tract conditions. It helps relieve symptoms such as persistent coughing, throat irritation, and allergic manifestations like sneezing, runny nose, and watery eyes. It is particularly useful when cough is accompanied by allergic symptoms during common cold, flu, or other respiratory tract infections.
Benefits
The combination provides dual benefits: Levocloperastine works as a cough suppressant to reduce the urge to cough, while Chlorpheniramine relieves allergic symptoms. This helps provide comprehensive relief from cough and associated discomfort. Patients experience reduced frequency of coughing episodes, better sleep quality, and relief from irritating allergic symptoms, improving overall comfort during respiratory illness.
Side effects
Common side effects include drowsiness, dizziness, dry mouth, nausea, headache, and fatigue. Some patients may experience blurred vision, constipation, or difficulty urinating. Most side effects are mild and temporary, resolving as your body adjusts to the medicine. If you experience severe drowsiness, difficulty breathing, irregular heartbeat, or any persistent troublesome symptoms, consult your doctor promptly.
How to use
Take this medicine as directed by your doctor or pharmacist. Measure the dose carefully using the measuring cup or spoon provided. It can be taken with or without food, but taking it with food may help reduce stomach upset. Do not exceed the recommended dose. Shake the bottle well before use. Always follow your doctor's prescribed schedule and complete the full course of treatment.
How it works
Levocloperastine acts on the cough center in the brain to suppress the cough reflex, reducing the urge to cough. Chlorpheniramine is an antihistamine that blocks histamine, a substance in the body that causes allergic symptoms. Together, they work to control cough while simultaneously relieving associated allergic symptoms like sneezing, runny nose, and watery eyes.
Safety advice
Avoid alcohol as it may increase drowsiness. This medicine causes drowsiness and dizziness, so avoid driving or operating machinery until you know how it affects you. Inform your doctor if you are pregnant, planning pregnancy, or breastfeeding. Use with caution if you have liver or kidney disease, glaucoma, enlarged prostate, or urinary problems. Tell your doctor about all other medicines you are taking to avoid interactions. Elderly patients may be more sensitive to side effects.
