Is the combination of cetirizine and a paracetamol, phenylephrine, and chlorpheniramine formulation appropriate for treating a persistent cough lasting 20 days?

Asked by Female, 23 · 1 month ago

I would advise against combining cetirizine with the paracetamol, phenylephrine, and chlorpheniramine mixture. Both cetirizine and chlorpheniramine are antihistamines, and taking them together can cause excessive drowsiness, dry mouth, and dizziness. Additionally, since your cough has lasted nearly three weeks, these over-the-counter remedies may not address the underlying cause. A persistent cough of this duration warrants a proper evaluation by a doctor to find the exact cause and get you the right treatment.
