About Koffe-JR Sugar Free Syrup 60 ml

Koffe-JR Sugar Free Syrup 60 ml belongs to a class of medication called 'cough and cold preparations' primarily used to treat dry cough. Coughing (dry or productive) is the body's way of clearing irritants (like allergens, mucus or smoke) from airways and preventing infection. There are two types of coughs: 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. 

Koffe-JR Sugar Free Syrup 60 ml is a combination of three drugs, namely: Chlorpheniramine (antihistamine), Phenylephrine (decongestant) and Dextromethorphan (cough suppressant). Chlorpheniramine works by blocking the action of histamine, a substance responsible for causing allergic reactions. Phenylephrine helps shrink the blood vessels in the nasal passage, reducing a stuffy nose. Dextromethorphan works by blocking the transmission of nerve signals from the cough centre in the brain to the muscles that produce cough. Collectively, it helps to provide relief from dry cough.

Koffe-JR Sugar Free Syrup 60 ml should be taken as prescribed by the doctor. Your doctor will recommend how often you take Koffe-JR Sugar Free Syrup 60 ml based on your medical condition. Some people may experience dry mouth, throat or nose, drowsiness, blurred vision, constipation, dizziness, restlessness or excitation.

If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, it is advised to inform your doctor before using the Koffe-JR Sugar Free Syrup 60 ml. Koffe-JR Sugar Free Syrup 60 ml is not recommended for children below 12 years of age.
