CHLORPHENIRAMINE+PHENYLEPHRINE+BROMHEXINE+PARACETAMOL+GUAIFENESIN

CHLORPHENIRAMINE+PHENYLEPHRINE+BROMHEXINE+PARACETAMOL+GUAIFENESIN belongs to the class of medication called ‘cough and cold preparations’ primarily used to treat symptoms of common cold and allergies such as 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 ‘rhinoviruses’. The virus enters the body through the nose, mouth, or eyes and spreads easily through droplets in the air when the person who is sick sneezes, coughs, or talks.

CHLORPHENIRAMINE+PHENYLEPHRINE+BROMHEXINE+PARACETAMOL+GUAIFENESIN is a combination of five drugs, namely: Chlorpheniramine (antihistamine), Phenylephrine (decongestant), Bromhexine (mucolytic agent), Paracetamol (analgesic and antipyretic), and Guaifenesin (expectorant). Chlorpheniramine 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 to provide relief from symptoms of allergy such as sneezing, running nose, watery eyes, itching, swelling, and congestion or stiffness. Phenylephrine is a decongestant that works by contracting and narrowing the blood vessels. Thereby, provides relief from congestion and decreases mucus production. Bromhexine is a mucolytic agent (cough/sputum thinner) that works by thinning and loosening phlegm (mucus) in the lungs, windpipe, and nose. Thereby, helps to cough out easily. Paracetamol is an analgesic (relieves pain) and antipyretic (reduces fever) that works by inhibiting the production of certain chemical messengers in the brain known as prostaglandins that are responsible for pain and fever. Guaifenesin belongs to the class of expectorants that works by increasing the volume of fluid in the airways, reduce the stickiness of mucus, and helps to remove it from the airways.

Take CHLORPHENIRAMINE+PHENYLEPHRINE+BROMHEXINE+PARACETAMOL+GUAIFENESIN as prescribed. Your doctor will recommend how often you take CHLORPHENIRAMINE+PHENYLEPHRINE+BROMHEXINE+PARACETAMOL+GUAIFENESIN based on your medical condition. Some people may experience drowsiness, nervousness, headache, dizziness, restlessness, flushing (redness of the skin), loss of appetite, vomiting, insomnia (difficulty in falling or staying asleep), nausea, stomach upset, blurred vision, constipation, and dry mouth, nose or throat. Most of these side effects of CHLORPHENIRAMINE+PHENYLEPHRINE+BROMHEXINE+PARACETAMOL+GUAIFENESIN do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your doctor.

Drink plenty of fluids while taking CHLORPHENIRAMINE+PHENYLEPHRINE+BROMHEXINE+PARACETAMOL+GUAIFENESIN to loosen mucus and protect yourself from being dehydrated or overheated during exercise and in hot weather as CHLORPHENIRAMINE+PHENYLEPHRINE+BROMHEXINE+PARACETAMOL+GUAIFENESIN contains chlorpheniramine that decreases sweating and increases the risk of heatstroke. If you have high blood pressure, diabetes fits, glaucoma, hyperthyroidism (overactive thyroid), stomach ulcer, chronic bronchitis, asthma, cough with mucus, cough caused by smoking, chronic bronchitis or emphysema (a lung condition causing shortness of breath), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), blockage in stomach or intestines, phenylketonuria (a congenital disability that causes accumulation of amino acid, phenylalanine in the body), enlarged prostate, pheochromocytoma (tumor in the adrenal glands), kidney, liver, heart or urinary problems, inform your doctor before taking CHLORPHENIRAMINE+PHENYLEPHRINE+BROMHEXINE+PARACETAMOL+GUAIFENESIN.
