SINUS 77 TABLET is used to treat the common cold and allergic symptoms like sneezing, watery eyes, or itchy/watery nose and throat. It works by blocking the action of histamine, a substance responsible for causing allergic reactions. It helps in shrinking the blood vessels in the nasal passage, thereby reducing the stuffy nose. Also, it inhibits the production of certain chemical messengers in the brain known as prostaglandins responsible for pain and fever. Some people may experience drowsiness, sleepiness, nausea, fatigue, difficulty in sleeping, and headache. Before taking this medicine, you should tell your doctor if you are allergic to any of its components or if you are pregnant/breastfeeding, and about all the medications you are taking and pre-existing medical conditions.

About SINUS 77 TABLET

SINUS 77 TABLET is an oral medication formulated to relieve the uncomfortable symptoms associated with the common cold, flu, and upper respiratory allergies. It helps ease nasal congestion, runny nose, sneezing, watery eyes, fever, headache, and minor body aches. By targeting multiple symptoms at once, it helps you manage your discomfort and get back to your daily routine.

For the best results, take SINUS 77 TABLET consistently at the regular intervals recommended by your doctor while your symptoms persist. You can take this medication with or without food, though taking it with a meal or a glass of milk can help prevent minor stomach upset. Incorporating simple lifestyle adjustments, such as resting and staying well-hydrated, can also significantly support your body's recovery process.

While taking SINUS 77 TABLET, you may experience mild and common side effects, such as mild drowsiness, a dry mouth, or a slightly upset stomach. These are usually temporary and resolve on their own. However, if you experience rare but serious side effects, such as severe dizziness, a rapid or pounding heartbeat, or signs of an allergic reaction like a sudden rash, stop taking the medicine immediately and consult a doctor.

Talk to your doctor before starting SINUS 77 TABLET if you have underlying health conditions, including high blood pressure, heart disease, diabetes, thyroid disorders, glaucoma, or liver issues. Do not take this medicine if you have severe liver disease or are known to be allergic to any of its active components.

To ensure your safety, avoid consuming alcohol while taking this medicine, as it can significantly increase the risk of liver damage. Additionally, do not combine SINUS 77 TABLET with other medications containing paracetamol or decongestants without professional advice. If you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or managing medications for an elderly individual, consult your doctor or pharmacist before use.
 

Uses of SINUS 77 TABLET

SINUS 77 TABLET is used to relieve common cold, flu, and upper respiratory allergies. The detailed uses of SINUS 77 TABLET are as follows:

  • Common Cold and Flu: Relieves nasal congestion, lowers fever, and eases generalised body aches and headaches.
  • Allergic Rhinitis: Helps dry up a runny nose, stops persistent sneezing, and reduces itchy, watery eyes.
  • Sinus Congestion: Promotes sinus drainage by reducing swelling in the nasal passages, relieving painful sinus pressure.
     

Key Benefits

SINUS 77 TABLET brings real-world relief to patients suffering from multi-symptom respiratory illnesses, making the recovery process much more manageable.

  • All-in-One Relief: Instead of taking multiple individual medications, a single dose addresses pain, fever, congestion, and allergy symptoms simultaneously, simplifying your treatment.
  • Easier Breathing: By reducing swelling inside your nasal passages, it helps clear your airways so you can breathe comfortably through your nose.
  • Restful Recovery: Easing headaches and body aches allows your body to rest comfortably, which is essential for a faster recovery.
  • Daytime Alertness: The inclusion of caffeine helps counteract the natural drowsiness associated with the allergy relief component, helping you stay alert during the day.
     

Directions for Use

  • SINUS 77 TABLET can be taken with or without food, as advised by your doctor.
  • Follow your doctor's instructions on the dosage and timing of this medication.
  • Swallow SINUS 77 TABLET as a whole with a glass of water.
  • Do not crush, chew, or break it.

How SINUS 77 TABLET Works

SINUS 77 TABLET works through the coordinated action of its four active ingredients, each targeting a specific aspect of cold and flu symptoms: Chlorpheniramine: This is an antihistamine. It works by blocking histamine, a natural substance in the body that triggers typical allergy symptoms like sneezing, runny nose, and watery eyes. Paracetamol: This is a trusted pain reliever and fever reducer. It acts on the chemical messengers in the brain that regulate body temperature and signal pain, effectively lowering fever and easing body aches. Phenylephrine: This is a nasal decongestant. It works directly on the blood vessels in the nasal passages, causing them to narrow. This reduces swelling and eases congestion, making it easier to breathe. Caffeine: This is a mild central nervous system stimulant. It enhances the pain-relieving efficacy of paracetamol while helping to minimise the drowsiness that antihistamines can sometimes cause.

FAQs

SINUS 77 TABLET is used to treat the common cold and allergy symptoms like sneezing, watery eyes, or itchy/watery nose and throat.Â
SINUS 77 TABLET is composed of four medicines, namely: Chlorpheniramine (anti-histamine), Phenylephrine (decongestant), Paracetamol (mild analgesic and antipyretic), and Caffeine (a stimulant). Chlorpheniramine belongs to the class of antihistamines (anti-allergic drugs) that works by blocking the action of histamine, a substance responsible for causing allergic reactions. Phenylephrine helps in shrinking the blood vessels in the nasal passage, thereby reducing stuffy nose. Paracetamol is an analgesic (relieves pain) and antipyretic (reduces fever) that works by inhibiting the production of certain chemical messengers in the brain known as 'prostaglandins' responsible for pain and fever.  Caffeine acts as a common stimulant, which decreases sleepiness caused by Chlorpheniramine and speeds up the action of all the medicines present in SINUS 77 TABLET.
Do not use SINUS 77 TABLET if you have used an MAO inhibitor in the past 14 days, like isocarboxazid, linezolid, phenelzine, rasagiline, selegiline, or tranylcypromine. Tell your doctor before taking SINUS 77 TABLET if you have nausea, stomach pain, itchy skin, loss of appetite, dark urine, clay-colored stools, or jaundice (yellowing of your skin or eyes). In rare cases, paracetamol present in SINUS 77 TABLET may cause a severe skin allergic reaction. So, if you observe any skin blisters or redness, or rash, immediately contact your doctor and stop taking SINUS 77 TABLET.
SINUS 77 TABLET contains caffeine. So, avoid taking medicines or food containing caffeine like cold drinks, coffee, chocolate, and tea. Also, avoid consumption of alcohol while taking SINUS 77 TABLET as it might increase drowsiness.
