Introduction
Restus-D Syrup is a combination medicine used to treat common cold and cough symptoms. It contains Phenylephrine, Chlorpheniramine Maleate, and Dextromethorphan Hydrobromide. Phenylephrine acts as a decongestant, Chlorpheniramine Maleate is an antiallergic, and Dextromethorphan Hydrobromide is a cough suppressant. This combination helps relieve congestion, runny nose, watery eyes, sneezing, and cough. However, it may have potential side effects and should be used under medical supervision, especially during pregnancy and breastfeeding.
Directions for Use
Take this medicine in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Measure it with a measuring cup and take it by mouth. Shake well before use. Restus-D Syrup may be taken with or without food, but it is better to take it at a fixed time.
How it works
Restus-D Syrup is a combination of three medicines: Phenylephrine, Chlorpheniramine Maleate, and Dextromethorphan Hydrobromide. Phenylephrine narrows the small blood vessels, providing relief from congestion or stuffiness in the nose. Chlorpheniramine Maleate relieves allergy symptoms like runny nose, watery eyes, and sneezing. Dextromethorphan Hydrobromide suppresses cough by reducing the activity of the cough center in the brain.
Quick Tips
Restus-D Syrup helps in the treatment of dry cough and other common cold symptoms. It is usually taken only for a short time until the symptoms clear up. 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. Stop taking this medicine and inform your doctor if your cough persists for more than 1 week, tends to recur, or is accompanied by a fever, rash, or persistent headache.
