Dif 25mg Suspension belongs to a class of medication called ‘antihistamine’ (anti-allergic), primarily used to treat sneezing, running nose, itches, common cold symptoms, and cough. An allergy is an immune system response to foreign elements typically not harmful to your body. These foreign elements are known as ‘allergens.’ It is also used to induce sleep, treat Parkinson's disease, and relieve cough caused by minor throat or airway irritation.
Dif 25mg Suspension blocks a natural substance (histamine) during an allergic reaction. Besides this, drying effects of Dif 25mg Suspension on allergic symptoms (like watery eyes and runny nose) are caused by blocking another natural substance (acetylcholine). Together it helps relieve allergy symptoms like sneezing, running nose, watery eyes, itching, swelling, congestion, or stiffness.
