Introduction
Coldnect Syrup is a combination of three medicines: Chlorpheniramine, paracetamol, and phenylephrine. It is commonly prescribed in children to relieve common cold symptoms. Chlorpheniramine is an antiallergic that relieves allergy symptoms like runny nose, watery eyes, and sneezing. Paracetamol is an analgesic (pain reliever) and antipyretic (fever reducer). Phenylephrine is a nasal decongestant that narrows the small blood vessels providing relief from congestion or stuffiness in the nose.
Directions for Use
Coldnect Syrup may make your child feel sleepy. Ensure your child takes extra care when taking part in physical activities. Never combine Coldnect Syrup with other cold and flu medicines as that may lead to side effects. Stop Coldnect Syrup and immediately report to the doctor if your child develops an itchy rash, facial swelling, or breathing difficulties.

Quick Tips
Clean and disinfect surfaces after sneezing and coughing to avoid allergy. Give your child plenty of fluids as it helps to thin and loosen the mucus in the lungs. Restrain your child from having dairy products, coffee, and foods that are spicy and fried. All these can trigger coughing. Make your child gargle with warm saltwater. Ensure your child takes enough rest.
