About Delcon Syrup

Delcon Syrup belongs to the class of medication called 'cough and cold medications' used to treat symptoms of the common cold and allergies like sneezing, runny/stuffy nose, fever, headache, body pains, congestion, or watery eyes in children. 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.

Delcon Syrup is a combination of two drugs, namely, Phenylephrine hydrochloride (decongestant) and Chlorpheniramine maleate (antihistamine/antiallergic). Phenylephrine hydrochloride belongs to the class of decongestants that work by shrinking the blood vessels in the nasal passage. Thereby providing relief from congestion and decreasing excess mucus production. Chlorpheniramine maleate belongs to the class of antihistamines (anti-allergic drugs) that works by blocking the action of histamine, a substance responsible for causing allergic reactions. It helps relieve symptoms of allergies such as sneezing, running nose, watery eyes, itching, swelling, and nasal congestion.

Delcon Syrup is for paediatric use. Your doctor will recommend how often your child needs to take Delcon Syrup based on his/her medical condition. Delcon Syrup may cause common side effects such as drowsiness, nervousness, headache, dizziness, insomnia (difficulty falling or staying asleep), blurred vision, constipation and dry mouth. Most of these side effects of Delcon Syrup do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your doctor.

If your child is allergic to Delcon Syrup or any other medicines, please tell your doctor. Please do not give more than the prescribed dose of Delcon Syrup to your child as it may cause adverse effects.
