About Grilinctus-L Oral Suspension

Grilinctus-L Oral Suspension is a cough suppressant. It is primarily used to treat dry cough. A cough is a reflex action that helps to clear any foreign irritant or mucus in the throat. Dry cough refers to a cough where there is no mucus or secretion along with cough. The most common causes of cough are cold/flu, asthma, emphysema, and COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease). 

Grilinctus-L Oral Suspension contains levocloperastine hydrochloride, a cough suppressant. It works by blocking the cough receptor present in the brain, which is known to cause cough. Grilinctus-L Oral Suspension is generally prescribed for short-term treatment of dry cough. It does not treat chronic cough or cough caused due to smoking, emphysema and asthma.

The doctor will decide the dose and duration of Grilinctus-L Oral Suspension depending on your condition. The most common side effects of Grilinctus-L Oral Suspension are nausea, drowsiness, dizziness, dry mouth, fatigue, and headache. Most of these side effects of Grilinctus-L Oral Suspension do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your doctor.

Do not take Grilinctus-L Oral Suspension if you are allergic to levocloperastine hydrochloride. Increase the intake of fluids so that the mucus loosens and the throat remains lubricated. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, please inform your doctor before starting Grilinctus-L Oral Suspension . Also, mention all the medicines you are talking to your doctor before starting the Grilinctus-L Oral Suspension . Please visit the doctor immediately if your condition does not improve, or your cough comes back or occurs with a fever or rash.
