How Ambroxol + Chlorpheniramine + Dextromethorphan + Menthol + Phenylephrine works

  • Ambroxol + Chlorpheniramine + Dextromethorphan + Menthol + Phenylephrine is a multifunctional combination medicine.

  • Ambroxol is a mucolytic agent. It works by breaking down mucus in the airways, which makes it easier to cough it out.

  • Chlorpheniramine is an antihistamine. It works by blocking the action of histamine, a substance in the body that causes allergic symptoms such as itching, sneezing, and runny nose.

  • Dextromethorphan is a cough suppressant. It works by disrupting signals in the part of your brain that triggers the urge to cough.

  • Menthol provides a cooling sensation. It does this by activating certain receptors in the mouth and throat, which helps to soothe irritation and reduce the urge to cough.

  • Phenylephrine is a decongestant. It works by narrowing (constricting) blood vessels in the nasal passages, reducing blood flow and decreasing swelling and congestion.
