Introduction
Toff DC Tablet is a combination medicine used to treat common cold and cough. It provides quick relief from symptoms such as runny nose, stuffy nose, sneezing, watery eyes, and congestion. The medicine contains Phenylephrine, Chlorpheniramine Maleate, and Dextromethorphan Hydrobromide. Phenylephrine is a decongestant that narrows small blood vessels to relieve nasal congestion. Chlorpheniramine Maleate is an antiallergic that alleviates allergy symptoms like runny nose and watery eyes. Dextromethorphan Hydrobromide is a cough suppressant that reduces the activity of the cough center in the brain. While effective, it is important to use this medication as directed by a healthcare provider and be aware of potential side effects and warnings.
Directions for Use
Take this medicine in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Swallow it as a whole. Do not chew, crush, or break it. Toff DC Tablet may be taken with or without food, but it is better to take it at a fixed time.

Quick Tips
Toff DC Tablet 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.
