Medicinal Benefits

Actiza Tablet contains Caffeine, Cetirizine, Nimesulide, Paracetamol and Phenylephrine. Actiza Tablet is used to treat the symptoms of the common cold. It also helps treat fever and aches associated with the common cold. Cetirizine belongs to the class of antihistamines (anti-allergic drugs) that works by blocking the action of histamine, a substance responsible for causing allergic reactions. It helps relieve symptoms of allergies such as sneezing, running nose, watery eyes, itching, swelling, and congestion or stiffness. Phenylephrine is a decongestant that works by narrowing the blood vessels; this helps in providing relief from congestion and stuffiness of the nose. Paracetamol is an analgesic (relieves pain) and antipyretic (reduces fever) that works by inhibiting the production of certain chemical messengers in the brain known as prostaglandins responsible for pain and fever.
