Cofdrain-P Syrup 60 ml

Cofdrain-P Syrup 60 ml is used to treat symptoms of the common cold and allergies (allergic rhinitis). 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. Allergies are caused due to the 'allergens' that cause 'histamine' to release in the blood, thereby causing a stuffy nose, watery eyes, itching nose/throat, etc. 

Cofdrain-P Syrup 60 ml is a combination medicine that contains Paracetamol, Phenylephrine hydrochloride, Chlorpheniramine maleate, Sodium citrate, and menthol. Paracetamol works by inhibiting the production of certain chemical messengers in the brain known as prostaglandins that are responsible for pain and fever. Phenylephrine hydrochloride works by contracting and narrowing the blood vessels. Chlorpheniramine maleate works by blocking the action of histamine, a substance responsible for causing allergic reactions. Sodium citrate works by thinning and loosening phlegm (mucus) in the lungs, windpipe, and nose. Menthol relieves minor irritation in the throat and provides a cooling sensation.

Give Cofdrain-P Syrup 60 ml to your child as advised by the doctor. Sometimes, Cofdrain-P Syrup 60 ml may cause common side effects such as drowsiness, nervousness, mild headache, dizziness, insomnia (difficulty falling or staying asleep), blurred vision, nausea, vomiting, constipation, and dry mouth.

Cofdrain-P Syrup 60 ml contains Paracetamol, Phenylephrine hydrochloride, Chlorpheniramine maleate, Sodium citrate, and menthol used to treat symptoms of the common cold and allergies. 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. Phenylephrine hydrochloride is a decongestant that works by contracting and narrowing the blood vessels. Thus, provides relief from congestion and decreases mucus production. Chlorpheniramine maleate is an anti-allergic drug that blocks the action of histamine, a substance responsible for causing allergic reactions. Sodium citrate is a mucolytic agent (cough/sputum thinner) that works by thinning and loosening phlegm (mucus) in the lungs, windpipe, and nose. Thus, helps to cough out easily. Menthol is a cooling agent that relieves minor irritation in the throat and provides a cooling sensation.
