About Benadryl DR Syrup
Benadryl DR Syrup is used to treat a dry cough. Coughing is a natural reflex that helps remove irritants such as allergens, mucus, and smoke from the airways and prevents infections. A dry cough is irritating and does not produce mucus, whereas a wet cough generates mucus or phlegm, which helps clear the airways, typically due to infections or irritation.
Benadryl DR Syrup contains Dextromethorphan hydrobromide, which works by blocking the cough receptor present in the brain, which is known to cause cough.
The most common side effects of Benadryl DR Syrup are dizziness, drowsiness, sleepiness, confusion, and nausea. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and typically resolve on their own over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your doctor.
Inform your doctor if you are allergic to Benadryl DR Syrup or any other medication. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, please inform your doctor before starting Benadryl DR Syrup. Benadryl DR Syrup should be given to children only if prescribed by the doctor.
