About Joycold Syrup Orange

Joycold Syrup Orange 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. Some might be allergic to certain foods and seasonal allergies like hay fever. Whereas, others might be allergic to pollen or pet dander.

Joycold Syrup Orange contains two medicines namely: Chlorpheniramine maleate (anti-histamine/anti-allergic) and Phenylephrine (decongestant). Chlorpheniramine maleate blocks the release of histamine in the body, which is known to cause allergic symptoms. On the other hand, Phenylephrine helps shrink the blood vessels in the nasal passage, thereby reducing the stuffy nose. Together, Joycold Syrup Orange effectively reduces allergic symptoms.

Joycold Syrup Orange can be taken with or without food in a dose and duration as advised by the doctor. The duration of Joycold Syrup Orange will depend upon your condition. The most common side effects of Joycold Syrup Orange are drowsiness, dizziness, headache, dry mouth/nose/throat, upset stomach, constipation, or trouble sleeping. Most of these side effects of Joycold Syrup Orange do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects are persistent, reach out to your doctor.
