About Medler New Tablet

Medler New Tablet belongs to the class of medication called 'cough and cold medications' primarily used to treat common cold symptoms and allergies like sneezing, runny/stuffy nose, fever, headache, body pains, congestion, or watery eyes. The common cold is a respiratory illness affecting the nose and throat. It is mostly caused by viruses known as 'rhinovirus'. The virus enters the body through the nose, mouth, or eyes and spreads quickly through droplets in the air when the person who is sick sneezes, coughs, or talks.

Medler New Tablet is a combination of three drugs: Paracetamol (mild analgesic and antipyretic), Phenylephrine hydrochloride (decongestant), and Chlorpheniramine maleate (antihistamine/antiallergic). Paracetamol works by inhibiting the production of certain chemical messengers in the brain known as prostaglandins, which are responsible for pain and fever. Phenylephrine hydrochloride works by shrinking the blood vessels in the nasal passage. Thereby providing relief from congestion and decreasing excess mucus production. Chlorpheniramine maleate works by blocking the action of histamine, a substance responsible for causing allergic reactions. It helps to provide relief from symptoms of allergy.

Take Medler New Tablet as prescribed. Your doctor will recommend how often you must take Medler New Tablet based on your medical condition. Some people may experience drowsiness, nervousness, headache, dizziness, insomnia (difficulty falling or staying asleep), blurred vision, constipation, and dry mouth. Most of these side effects of Medler New Tablet do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your doctor.

Please tell your doctor if you are allergic to Medler New Tablet or any other medicines. If you are pregnant, it is advised to inform your doctor before using Medler New Tablet . Do not use Medler New Tablet if you are breastfeeding without a doctor’s advice, as it may be excreted in breast milk and cause harm to the baby. Medler New Tablet is not recommended for children below four years. Please do not take more than the prescribed dose of Medler New Tablet as it may cause liver damage.

Phenylephrine hydrochloride is a decongestant that works by contracting and narrowing the blood vessels. Thereby, providing relief from congestion and decreasing mucus production. Chlorpheniramine maleate is an antihistamine (anti-allergic drug) that works by blocking the action of histamine, a substance responsible for causing allergic reactions.

Disease/Condition Glossary

Common cold: The common cold is an infection caused by the virus, mainly known as ‘rhinoviruses’, affecting 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: It occurs when allergy-causing agents (allergens) attack and invade our body, thereby causing the release of histamines. This chemical messenger, 'histamine', causes swelling, inflammation, redness, itchiness, itchy/watery nose, and watery eyes. Allergies generally occur due to chemicals, air pollution, pet dander, dust, pollen hairs, seasonal allergies like hay fever, etc.
