About Phencof-N Syrup

Phencof-N Syrup belongs to the class of medications called 'cough and cold preparations,' primarily used to treat common cold and allergy symptoms, such as sneezing, a stuffy nose, dry cough, watery eyes, and throat irritation. A common cold occurs when your immune system reacts to a virus affecting the nose and throat (upper respiratory tract). An allergy is an immune system response to foreign elements (allergens), such as pollen or pet dander.

Phencof-N Syrup contains Cetirizine, Dextromethorphan, and Phenylephrine. Cetirizine works by blocking the action of a natural substance (histamine) responsible for causing allergic reactions. Dextromethorphan works by blocking the cough receptor present in the brain, which is known to cause cough. Phenylephrine works by shrinking the blood vessels in the nasal passage, which helps ease discomfort and make breathing easier. Together, Phencof-N Syrup helps relieve symptoms associated with common colds and allergies.

Your doctor will recommend the dose and duration of Phencof-N Syrup based on your medical condition. Sometimes, you may experience common side effects such as drowsiness, lightheadedness, nervousness, dizziness, vomiting, nausea, stomach pain, and restlessness. Most of these side effects of Phencof-N Syrup do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if these side effects persist or worsen, please consult your doctor.

Before taking Phencof-N Syrup , inform your doctor if you are allergic to any of its ingredients. Keep your doctor informed about your health conditions and medications to rule out any side effects or interactions. Tell your doctor if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding before using this medication. Phencof-N Syrup may cause dizziness and drowsiness, so avoid driving or operating machinery until you are fully awake and alert.

Medicinal Benefits

Phencof-N Syrup belongs to the class of medications called 'cough and cold preparations,' primarily used to treat symptoms of the common cold and allergy, such as sneezing, a stuffy nose, dry cough, watery eyes, and throat irritation.

Together, Phencof-N Syrup effectively relieves symptoms associated with common colds or allergies.
