Medler Syrup 60 ml

Medler Syrup 60 ml belongs to the class of medication called 'cough and cold medications' primarily used to treat symptoms of the common cold and allergies like sneezing, runny/stuffy nose, fever, headache, body pains, congestion or watery eyes. The common cold is a respiratory illness affecting the nose and throat. It is mostly caused by viruses known as 'rhinovirus.' 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.

Medler Syrup 60 ml is a combination medicine that contains Acetaminophen (mild analgesic and antipyretic), Pseudoephedrine (decongestant) and Chlorpheniramine (antihistamine/antiallergic). Acetaminophen works by blocking the production of certain chemical messengers in the brain known as prostaglandins responsible for pain and fever. Pseudoephedrine works by contracting and narrowing the small blood vessels of nasal passages and airways, relieving congestion or stuffiness in the nose. Chlorpheniramine works by blocking the action of histamine, a substance responsible for causing allergic reactions. Collectively, Medler Syrup 60 ml helps relieve allergy symptoms such as sneezing, running nose, watery eyes, itching, swelling and nasal congestion.

Take Medler Syrup 60 ml as prescribed by your doctor. Your doctor will recommend how often you take Medler Syrup 60 ml based on your medical condition.

Common cold: The virus, commonly referred to as 'rhinoviruses,' which affects the nose and throat, causes the common cold (upper respiratory tract). The risk of colds is greatest in children under the age of six, but healthy adults can also be affected by getting 2 to 3 colds per year. Most of the time, cold symptoms disappear within a week to ten days. However, those who smoke or are exposed to allergens like pollutants, dust, etc., may experience symptoms that last longer. Sneezing, a sore throat, a cough, congestion, mild body aches, a low fever, a mild headache, feeling unwell, and a stuffy or runny nose are some of the symptoms of the common cold. It is not always a sign of bacterial infection when the nasal discharge thickens and turns yellow or green.

Allergies: These happen when foreign substances that can cause allergies (allergens) attack and enter our bodies, releasing histamines. Histamines, chemical messengers, cause swelling, inflammation, redness, itching, and watery/runny eyes, noses, and throats. Chemicals, air pollution, pet dander, dust, pollen hairs, seasonal allergies like hay fever, etc., are the most common causes of allergies.
