How Caffeine + Chlorpheniramine Maleate + Paracetamol/acetaminophen + Phenylpropanolamine works

  • Caffeine + Chlorpheniramine Maleate + Paracetamol/Acetaminophen + Phenylpropanolamine is a combination medicine used to manage cold symptoms.

  • Caffeine, a mild central nervous system stimulant, works by making one feel more alert and less fatigued. It also enhances the pain-relieving effects of paracetamol.

  • Chlorpheniramine Maleate, an antihistamine, helps to manage allergy symptoms by blocking the action of histamine, a chemical released by the body during an allergic reaction which can cause symptoms like runny nose and sneezing.

  • Paracetamol/Acetaminophen is a pain reliever and fever reducer. It is thought to work its magic by inhibiting the synthesis of prostaglandins in the brain, chemicals that can cause pain and inflammation.

  • Phenylpropanolamine, a decongestant, provides relief from nasal congestion by narrowing the blood vessels in the nasal passages. This reduces inflammation and swelling and decreases mucus production.
