About Chericof 12 Cherry Flavour Suspension

Chericof 12 Cherry Flavour Suspension is 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.

Chericof 12 Cherry Flavour Suspension is a combination of two drugs: Chlorphenamine maleate and Dextromethorphan. Chlorphenamine maleate stops the effects of histamine to reduce allergies. Dextromethorphan hydrobromide prevents cough by blocking signals from the brain’s cough center.

You may experience dry mouth, throat, or nose, drowsiness, blurred vision, constipation, dizziness, restlessness or excitation. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention. However, talk to your doctor if you experience these side effects persistently.
