Description
🤧 Triple Relief Cold & Cough Syrup
(Ambroxol 15mg + Pseudoephedrine 30mg + Chlorpheniramine Maleate 2mg per 5ml)
💡 What is This Syrup?
This combination syrup provides multi-symptom relief from common cold, allergies, nasal congestion, cough, and throat irritation. It combines:
-
A mucolytic (to thin mucus),
-
A decongestant (to relieve nasal stuffiness), and
-
An antihistamine (to reduce sneezing, runny nose, and itching).
Ideal for conditions like allergic rhinitis, sinusitis, upper respiratory tract infections, and seasonal colds.
🧪 Composition / Ingredients
Each 5ml contains:
-
Ambroxol Hydrochloride (15mg):
A mucolytic agent that breaks down thick mucus in the airways, aiding its clearance through coughing. -
Pseudoephedrine Hydrochloride (30mg):
A nasal decongestant that shrinks swollen blood vessels in the nasal passages, reducing stuffiness and sinus pressure. -
Chlorpheniramine Maleate (2mg):
A first-generation antihistamine that blocks histamine receptors, helping relieve sneezing, runny nose, watery eyes, and itching.
