Rapid CF Syrup is used to treat symptoms of the common cold and allergies. It contains Paracetamol, Phenylephrine hydrochloride, and Chlorpheniramine maleate. 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. Thereby providing relief from congestion and decreasing mucus production. Chlorpheniramine maleate works by blocking the action of histamine, a substance responsible for causing allergic reactions. Thus, they help relieve symptoms of allergy such as sneezing, running nose, watery eyes, itching, swelling, and congestion or stiffness.
