Jaswell Orange Flavour Children Syrup belongs to the class of medication called 'cough and cold medications' used to treat symptoms of the common cold and allergies like sneezing, runny/stuffy nose, fever, headache, body pains, congestion, or watery eyes in children. The common cold is a respiratory illness affecting the nose and throat. It is mostly caused by viruses known as 'rhinovirus'.

Phenylephrine hydrochloride belongs to the class of decongestants that work by shrinking the blood vessels in the nasal passage. Thereby providing relief from congestion and decreasing excess mucus production. Chlorpheniramine maleate 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 nasal congestion.

Common cold: The common cold is an infection caused by a virus, mainly known as ‘rhinoviruses,’ that affects the nose and throat (upper respiratory tract). Children younger than 6 years are at the most significant risk of colds, but healthy adults can also be affected by having 2-3 colds annually. In most cases, cold symptoms are recovered within a week or ten days. However, symptoms might last longer in people who smoke or are exposed to allergens like pollutants, dust, etc. The symptoms of the common cold include sneezing, sore throat, cough, congestion, mild body pains, low fever, mild headache, feeling unwell, and stuffy or runny nose. In some cases, the discharge from the nose may become thicker and yellow or green, which is not an indication of bacterial infection.

Allergies: These occur when foreign elements that cause allergy-causing agents (allergens) attack and invade our body, thereby causing the release of histamines. This chemical messenger, 'histamines, ' causes swelling, inflammation, redness, itchiness, itchy/watery nose and throat, and watery eyes. Allergies generally occur due to chemicals, air pollution, pet dander, dust, pollen hairs, seasonal allergies like hay fever, etc.
