Syrup
Introduction
Alervas DX Syrup is a combination of Chlorpheniramine Maleate and Dextromethorphan Hydrobromide, used to treat dry cough. It works by reducing the activity of the brain's cough center and blocking the effects of histamine. This medication can provide temporary relief from throat irritation, sneezing, and a runny nose. While it is effective, it may cause dizziness and drowsiness, so caution is advised when driving or performing tasks that require concentration. It is important to consult a doctor if the cough persists for more than 7 days, recurs, or is accompanied by fever, rash, or headache.
Directions for Use
Take this medicine in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Check the label for directions before use. Measure it with a measuring cup and take it by mouth. Shake well before use. Alervas DX Syrup may be taken with or without food, but it is better to take it at a fixed time.
How it works
Alervas DX Syrup is a combination of two medicines: Chlorpheniramine Maleate and Dextromethorphan Hydrobromide. Chlorpheniramine Maleate is an antiallergic that helps reduce cough associated with allergies by blocking the effects of histamine. Dextromethorphan Hydrobromide is a cough suppressant that relieves cough by reducing the activity of the cough center in the brain.
Quick Tips
Alervas DX Syrup helps relieve dry persistent cough. Measure the syrup with a special dose-measuring spoon or cup, not a regular table spoon. Drink extra fluids to help loosen the congestion and lubricate your throat while you are taking this medication. It may cause dizziness and drowsiness. Use caution while driving or doing anything that requires concentration. Avoid consuming alcohol while taking Alervas DX Syrup as it can cause excessive drowsiness. Inform your doctor if your cough lasts more than 7 days, comes back, or occurs with fever, rash, or headache that lasts. These could be signs of a serious condition.
