Introduction
Nochil Oral Suspension is a combination of three medicines: Chlorpheniramine, paracetamol, and phenylephrine which relieves 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).

Frequently asked questions
What if I give too much Nochil Oral Suspension by mistake?
Exceeding the prescribed dose of Nochil Oral Suspension can lead to serious side effects such as seizures, increased heart rate, depression, cognitive impairment, and difficulty concentrating. It is crucial to strictly adhere to the prescribed dosage for your child. Use the calibrated cup provided with the medication for accurate measurement. Avoid using a kitchen teaspoon, as it may provide an incorrect amount.
How can I store Nochil Oral Suspension?
Store Nochil Oral Suspension at room temperature in a dry location away from direct heat and light. Additionally, keep all medications out of reach and sight of children to prevent accidental ingestion.
My child has a cough and fever. Can I give him two medicines together?
Do not administer more than one cough or cold medication at a time unless advised by your child's doctor. This is because both types of medications might contain the same active ingredients, potentially leading to an overdose and undesirable consequences. Always seek guidance from your child's healthcare professional before administering any medicine.
Can I give my cough medicine to my child?
Never give your child medicines intended for use in adults. Children require medications specifically formulated for their age and body composition, as using adult medication can have unforeseen side effects. Always check the label of the medicine before administering it to your child. Follow the recommended dosage precisely and consult your child's doctor if they experience discomfort or symptom progression after treatment.
Can Nochil Oral Suspension make my child sleepy?
Though mild drowsiness can be a side effect of using Nochil Oral Suspension, it should not be used to induce sleep. Do not give the medication to your child if you intend to make them fall asleep. Forced sleep could mask any underlying sleep disorder like insomnia.
