Brufen Cold 400/60 Mg 10 Tablets

Description:

Brufen Cold 400/60 mg 10 Tablets is an oral combination cold and flu medicine designed to relieve pain, fever, and nasal congestion associated with common cold, influenza, and upper respiratory tract infections. Each tablet typically combines ibuprofen, a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (nsaid) with analgesic and antipyretic properties, and pseudoephedrine hydrochloride, a systemic nasal decongestant that helps open blocked nasal passages. This medicine is intended for short-term use in adults and adolescents, providing multi-symptom relief from cold and flu discomfort to help you resume daily activities more comfortably.

Indications:

• Symptomatic treatment of common cold and flu (influenza-like illnesses).
• Relief of headache, body aches, muscle pain, and sore throat pain associated with cold and flu.
• Reduction of fever and chills.
• Relief of nasal congestion and sinus pressure due to upper respiratory tract infections, rhinitis, or sinusitis.
• Relief of associated symptoms such as facial pain and pressure caused by congested sinuses.

Active Ingredients / Key Components:

• Ibuprofen – 400 mg per tablet (nsaid analgesic, anti-inflammatory, and antipyretic).
• Pseudoephedrine hydrochloride – 60 mg per tablet (systemic nasal decongestant).
• Other excipients (tablet core and coating ingredients such as fillers, binders, disintegrants, colorants, and preservatives) – exact composition not available.

Dosage & Administration / How to Use:

• Route of administration: Oral.
• Adults and adolescents (usually 12 years and above): Commonly 1 tablet every 6–8 hours as needed, with a maximum daily dose not to be exceeded as per package insert. Always follow the specific dosing instructions provided on the product packaging or by your doctor/pharmacist.
• Swallow the tablet whole with a full glass of water. Do not crush or chew.
• Preferably take with food or after meals to reduce the risk of gastrointestinal irritation from ibuprofen.
• Use for the shortest duration necessary to relieve symptoms, typically not more than 3–5 days for pain and fever or as directed by a healthcare professional.
• Do not exceed the recommended dose. If symptoms persist, worsen, or are accompanied by high fever, rash, or persistent headache, seek medical advice.
• Not recommended for children below the age specified on the package insert (age limit information not available; consult a doctor or pharmacist before giving to children).

Clinical Benefits:

• Provides effective relief from headache, body pain, and sore throat by inhibiting prostaglandin synthesis through ibuprofen’s nsaid action.
• Helps reduce fever and associated chills, improving overall comfort during cold and flu episodes.
• Decongests blocked nose and sinuses via pseudoephedrine, easing breathing and reducing sinus pressure.
• Combines analgesic, antipyretic, and decongestant effects in a single tablet, simplifying cold and flu symptom management.

Warnings & Contraindications:

• Do not use if you are allergic to ibuprofen, other nsaids (such as aspirin), pseudoephedrine, or any of the excipients.
• Contraindicated in patients with a history of asthma, urticaria, or allergic-type reactions after taking aspirin or other nsaids.
• Do not use in patients with severe heart disease, uncontrolled hypertension, severe kidney or liver impairment, or severe coronary artery disease unless specifically advised by a doctor.
• Not recommended in patients with active or recurrent peptic ulcer, gastrointestinal bleeding, or inflammatory bowel disease unless under strict medical supervision.
• Use with caution in patients with hypertension, hyperthyroidism, diabetes, glaucoma, prostatic hypertrophy, or other conditions where sympathomimetic amines (like pseudoephedrine) may pose a risk.
• Avoid concomitant use with other nsaids, aspirin (except low-dose as prescribed), or other decongestants, as this increases the risk of side effects.
• May interact with anticoagulants, antihypertensives, diuretics, certain antidepressants (maois), and other medications; consult your doctor or pharmacist before use.
• Consult your doctor before use if pregnant or planning pregnancy. Ibuprofen-containing products are generally not recommended, especially in the third trimester.

• Do not use for more than the recommended duration without medical advice.
