About Coldover Syrup Pineapple & Black currant

Coldover Syrup Pineapple & Black currant is used to treat symptoms caused by the common cold, flu, allergies and other breathing problems like sinusitis and bronchitis. An allergy is an immune system response to foreign elements known as 'allergens.' Allergic condition varies from person to person.
