Description

Actifed-DM Syrup is a fast-acting solution formulated to provide relief from common cold, flu symptoms, and allergic reactions. This syrup combines Pseudoephedrine (1.25mg), Triprolidine (30mg), and Dextromethorphan (10mg) to tackle a range of respiratory issues, including nasal congestion, cough, and allergy symptoms. Pseudoephedrine works as a decongestant, Triprolidine alleviates allergy symptoms, and Dextromethorphan helps to suppress coughing. Ideal for adults and children over 12, Actifed-DM brings comprehensive relief to manage cold, sinus pressure, sneezing, and more, helping you breathe easier and feel more comfortable.

Functions

  • Decongestant: Pseudoephedrine narrows blood vessels in the nasal passages, reducing swelling and relieving nasal and sinus congestion caused by colds, flu, or allergies.
  • Allergy Relief: Triprolidine is an antihistamine that blocks the effects of histamine in the body, alleviating symptoms like runny nose, sneezing, and itchy or watery eyes.
  • Cough Suppressant: Dextromethorphan works to suppress coughing by affecting the signals in the brain that trigger the cough reflex, offering relief from persistent coughs associated with respiratory infections.

Precautions

  • Pregnancy and Breastfeeding: While there is no definitive data on the safety of Actifed-DM Syrup during pregnancy and breastfeeding, it is best to consult your doctor before using this medication.
  • Liver and Kidney Conditions: If you have liver or kidney disease, consult your doctor before taking this syrup, as the ingredients could affect the functioning of these organs.
  • Alcohol Use: Avoid alcohol while taking Actifed-DM Syrup as it can interact with the medication, increasing the risk of side effects, such as dizziness or drowsiness.
  • High Blood Pressure: Pseudoephedrine, one of the active ingredients, may raise blood pressure. If you have a history of hypertension, it is crucial to consult your healthcare provider before use.

Side Effects

Actifed-DM Syrup may cause the following side effects in some individuals:

  • Drowsiness and Sedation: Triprolidine can cause drowsiness, so it’s advisable not to operate heavy machinery or drive after taking this syrup.
  • Dizziness: Some users may experience dizziness, especially if they stand up quickly.
  • Dry Mouth or Throat: A common side effect of antihistamines like Triprolidine, which may cause a dry or sore throat.
  • Nausea and Vomiting: Some individuals may feel nauseous or vomit, especially if the syrup is not taken with food.
  • Allergic Reactions: Although rare, serious allergic reactions such as rash, swelling, or trouble breathing may occur. If any of these symptoms appear, seek immediate medical attention.

Cautions

  • Use in Children: Actifed-DM Syrup is not recommended for children under 12 years of age. Always consult your healthcare provider for appropriate treatment for younger children.
  • Drug Interactions: If you are currently taking other medications, especially for depression (MAO inhibitors), blood pressure, or heart conditions, discuss possible interactions with your doctor.
  • Overuse: Do not exceed the recommended dosage. Overuse of Pseudoephedrine can lead to side effects such as increased heart rate, high blood pressure, or even heart complications.
  • Chronic Health Conditions: Those with hyperthyroidism, heart disease, or glaucoma should use this medication cautiously and only under medical supervision.
