#Dextreme Syrup is a combination medicine commonly used to relieve cough, nasal congestion, and symptoms associated with allergies. It combines the therapeutic benefits of three active ingredients: #dextromethorphan, #phenylephrine, and #triprolidine.
Mechanism of Action
#Dextromethorphan
#Dextromethorphan is a cough suppressant (antitussive) that acts on the cough center in the brain to suppress the cough reflex. Unlike opioid-based cough suppressants, it does not cause drowsiness or dependence when used as directed. This makes it effective in controlling dry, unproductive coughs caused by colds, flu, or irritation.
#Phenylephrine
#Phenylephrine is a decongestant that reduces nasal congestion by constricting the blood vessels in the nasal passages. It reduces swelling and helps you breathe easier. It is particularly effective in relieving symptoms of sinusitis and rhinitis.
#Triprolidine
#Triprolidine is an antihistamine that helps relieve allergy symptoms such as runny nose, sneezing, and itchy or watery eyes. It works by blocking the effects of histamine produced by the body during an allergic reaction.
