Phenergan 25 Tablet is an antiallergic medication. When your body is exposed to an allergen (pollen, animal dander, house dust, etc.), it produces a chemical called histamine. This causes watery eyes, runny or blocked nose, sneezing, skin rashes, itching, etc. Phenergan 25 Tablet works by blocking the action of histamine, thereby relieving these symptoms. It also works directly on several areas of the brain to prevent nausea/vomiting and help you feel more relaxed.

Use caution while driving or doing anything that requires concentration as Phenergan 25 Tablet can cause dizziness and sleepiness. Do not drink alcohol while taking this medication as it may cause increased sleepiness. It may make your skin more sensitive to sunlight. Avoid exposing your skin to strong sunlight, use a sunscreen lotion, or make sure your skin is protected with clothing. Do not take it for longer than 7 days. If your symptoms worsen or do not improve after 7 days, talk to your doctor. Stop taking it at least three days before taking an allergy test as it can affect the test results.
