Introduction

How it works
Tisko Syrup is a combination of three medicines: Cetirizine, Paracetamol, and Phenylephrine. Cetirizine is an antiallergic that blocks histamine (a chemical messenger) to relieve allergy symptoms like runny nose, watery eyes, and sneezing. Paracetamol is an analgesic (pain reliever) and antipyretic (fever reducer) that blocks the release of certain chemical messengers in the brain that are responsible for pain and fever. Phenylephrine is a decongestant that narrows the small blood vessels providing relief from congestion or stuffiness in the nose.
Quick Tips
Do not give Tisko Syrup if your child is less than 2 years of age. Consult your child’s doctor before giving such medicines. Tisko Syrup may make your child feel sleepy. Ensure your child takes extra care when taking part in physical activities. Never combine Tisko Syrup with other cold and flu medicines as that may lead to side effects. Stop Tisko Syrup and immediately report to the doctor if your child develops an itchy rash, facial swelling, or breathing difficulties. Practice self-care tips: clean and disinfect surfaces after sneezing and coughing, give your child plenty of fluids, restrain your child from having caffeinated products and foods that are spicy and fried, make your child gargle with warm saltwater, and ensure your child takes enough rest.
