Wecure-D Syrup 100 ml is used to treat dry cough. It contains Chlorpheniramine and Dextromethorphan, which work by blocking the transmission of nerve signals from the cough centre in the brain to the muscles that produce cough. Also, it blocks the action of histamine, a substance responsible for causing allergic reactions. Thus, it helps relieve overall cough, cold and allergic symptoms. Some people may experience side effects such as dry mouth, throat or nose, drowsiness, blurred vision, constipation, dizziness, restlessness or excitation. Before taking this medicine, you should tell your doctor if you are allergic to any of its components or if you are pregnant/breastfeeding, and about all the medications you are taking and pre-existing medical conditions.

About Wecure-D Syrup 100 ml

Wecure-D Syrup 100 ml is used to treat dry cough. Coughing (dry or productive) is the body’s way of clearing irritants (like allergens, mucus or smoke) from airways and preventing infection. There are two types of coughs, namely. Dry cough and chesty cough. A dry cough is tickly and doesn't produce any vicious or thick mucus, while a chesty cough (wet cough) means mucous or sputum is produced to help clear your airways. 

Wecure-D Syrup 100 ml is a combination of two drugs: Chlorpheniramine (antihistamine) and Dextromethorphan (cough suppressant). Chlorpheniramine belongs to the class of antihistamines or anti-allergic that work by blocking the action of histamine, a substance responsible for causing allergic reactions. It helps to provide relief from symptoms of allergy such as sneezing, running nose, watery eyes, itching, swelling, and congestion or stiffness. On the other hand, Dextromethorphan belongs to the class of cough suppressants that work by blocking the transmission of nerve signals from the cough centre in the brain to the muscles that produce cough. Thus, Wecure-D Syrup 100 ml helps relieve overall cough, cold and allergic symptoms. 

Take Wecure-D Syrup 100 ml with or without food as advised by your doctor with the help of a measuring cup. Your doctor will recommend how often you take Wecure-D Syrup 100 ml based on your medical condition. Some people may experience dry mouth, throat or nose, drowsiness, blurred vision, constipation, dizziness, restlessness or excitation. Most of these side effects of Wecure-D Syrup 100 ml do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your doctor.

If you are allergic to Wecure-D Syrup 100 ml or any other medicines, please tell your doctor. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, it is advised to inform your doctor before using Wecure-D Syrup 100 ml. Wecure-D Syrup 100 ml is not recommended for children below 12 years of age.
