Metalex-P 60Ml Syp belongs to the class of medications called ‘antihistamines’ used in the treatment of allergic reactions, common cold, insomnia and travel sickness. Allergy or hypersensitivity is an immune system response to foreign elements typically not harmful to your body. Insomnia is a sleep disorder characterized by difficulty falling or staying asleep. Travel sickness is an illness caused by motion during travel characterized by nausea and vomiting.
Metalex-P 60Ml Syp contains ‘promethazine’ which acts as an antihistamine. It blocks the action of histamines (chemicals causing allergic symptoms) and reduces the allergic reaction like runny nose, watery eyes and sneezing.. It also acts on the brain directly and produces the calming and anti-nausea effect. On the other side, Paracetamol is used to treat pain and reduce fever. Paracetamol works by inhibiting the production of certain chemical messengers in the brain known as prostaglandins that are responsible for pain and fever.
