COFEX TABLET

COFEX TABLET belongs to the class of medicines called ‘expectorants’ primarily used to treat cough associated with mucus. Coughing (dry or productive) is a 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. 

COFEX TABLET is a combination of two drugs, namely: Guaifenesin (expectorant) and chlorpheniramine (antiallergic). Guaifenesin belongs to the class of expectorants that loosen the chest and throat congestion, making it easier to cough out. On the other hand, Chlorpheniramine works by blocking the action of histamine, a substance responsible for causing allergic reactions. It directly acts on the brain and relieves symptoms of allergies by preventing the release of histamine. It helps to provide relief from allergy symptoms such as sneezing, running nose, watery eyes, itching, swelling, and congestion or stiffness.

Take COFEX TABLET as prescribed by your doctor. You are advised to take COFEX TABLET for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you, depending on your medical conditions. You may experience drowsiness, dizziness, constipation, blurred vision, restlessness, headache, nausea, vomiting, dry mouth, nose, or throat. Most of these side effects of COFEX TABLET do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your doctor.
