Clinical Benefits:

• Provides multi-symptom relief from cold and flu, including cough, nasal congestion, headache, and fever.
• Chlorpheniramine helps reduce sneezing, runny nose, and watery eyes by blocking histamine H1 receptors.
• Dextromethorphan suppresses dry, non-productive cough, improving comfort and promoting better rest.
• Paracetamol (acetaminophen) reduces fever and relieves mild to moderate pain such as sore throat, headache, and body aches.
• Pseudoephedrine acts as a nasal decongestant, reducing swelling of nasal mucosa and improving breathing through the nose.
