Phenylephrine is a 'decongestant' that helps shrink the blood vessels located in the nasal passage, thereby reducing stuffy nose. Dextromethorphan works by blocking the transmission of nerve signals from the cough centre in the brain to the muscles that produce cough. Thus, Ventryl D Syrup helps to relieve overall cough, cold and allergic symptoms.
