Franklor Tablet 10 is used in adults for the symptomatic treatment of common cold, allergic conditions, and nasal congestion associated with upper respiratory tract infections. It belongs to the class of medications known as antihistamines and decongestants.

Before starting Franklor Tablet 10, it is important to consult your doctor. The dosage and duration of use are determined based on symptom severity, existing medical conditions, cardiovascular status, and individual response. Seek medical advice promptly if symptoms worsen or if unusual side effects occur during treatment.

Franklor Tablet 10 is used for:

Symptomatic relief of the common cold
Management of allergic rhinitis and hay fever
Relief from nasal congestion and breathing discomfort

Swallow Franklor Tablet 10 whole with a glass of water.
Do not crush or chew the tablet.
Take the medicine exactly as prescribed by your doctor.

Franklor Tablet 10 is meant for oral use.

Franklor Tablet 10 may cause the following common side effects:

Drowsiness
Dizziness
Anxiety or restlessness
Nausea or stomach upset
Insomnia
Constipation
Blurred vision

Management Of Side Effects:

Most side effects of Franklor Tablet 10 are temporary and usually resolve as the body adjusts to Franklor Tablet 10. Consult your doctor if symptoms persist or worsen.

Drowsiness: Take the tablet in the evening if advised and avoid activities requiring alertness.
Dry mouth or constipation: Maintain adequate hydration and include fibre-rich foods in the diet.
Insomnia or restlessness: Avoid caffeine-containing beverages while on treatment.

Franklor Tablet 10 contains the following active components:

Diphenhydramine (25 mg): An antihistamine that blocks histamine (H1) receptors, thereby reducing allergy symptoms such as sneezing, itching, watery eyes, and a runny nose. It also has sedative properties.
Ephedrine (10 mg): A sympathomimetic agent that acts as a nasal decongestant and bronchodilator. It reduces nasal swelling by constricting blood vessels and helps widen airways, improving airflow and easing breathing.

Pregnancy

Franklor Tablet 10 should be used during pregnancy only if the expected benefit outweighs the potential risk to the foetus. Medical consultation is mandatory before taking Franklor Tablet 10.

Breastfeeding

Components of Franklor Tablet 10 may pass into breast milk. Use during breastfeeding is not recommended unless specifically advised by your doctor.

Alcohol

Alcohol should be avoided while taking Franklor Tablet 10, as it may enhance drowsiness, dizziness, and impair coordination.

Liver

Caution is advised in patients with liver impairment. Dose adjustment may be required, and medical supervision is recommended.

Kidney

Caution is advised in patients with liver impairment. Dose adjustment may be required, and medical supervision is recommended.

Use In Driving And Operating Machinery

Franklor Tablet 10 may cause drowsiness, dizziness, or blurred vision. Avoid driving or operating heavy machinery if such effects occur.

Allergy

Do not take Franklor Tablet 10 if there is a known allergy to diphenhydramine, ephedrine, or any component of the tablet. Seek immediate medical attention in case of allergic reactions.

Children

Use of Franklor Tablet 10 in children should be strictly based on medical advice. Dose adjustment may be required depending on age.

Older Patients

Elderly patients may be more sensitive to sedative and cardiovascular effects. Close monitoring is recommended.

Drug-Drug Interactions

Franklor Tablet 10 may interact with following medications:

MAO inhibitors such as phenelzine: Increased risk of severe hypertension and other serious reactions.
Beta-blockers such as propranolol: The concomitant use reduces effectiveness of ephedrine and altered blood pressure control.
Tricyclic antidepressants such as amitriptyline: The concomitant use enhance cardiovascular and central nervous system effects.

Drug-Disease Interactions

Franklor Tablet 10 should be used with caution in patients with:

Hypertension or heart disease: Franklor Tablet 10 may increase heart rate and blood pressure due to its sympathomimetic component, potentially worsening underlying cardiovascular conditions.
Diabetes mellitus: Franklor Tablet 10 can alter blood glucose control, as ephedrine may reduce insulin sensitivity and mask symptoms of hypoglycaemia.
Hyperthyroidism: Franklor Tablet 10 may intensify symptoms such as palpitations, nervousness, and tremors due to increased sensitivity to sympathomimetic effects.
Glaucoma: Franklor Tablet 10 may increase intraocular pressure because of its anticholinergic and adrenergic effects, worsening narrow-angle glaucoma.
Prostatic enlargement or urinary retention: Franklor Tablet 10 may aggravate difficulty in urination by increased sphincter tone and urinary retention.

Daily Dose

The recommended daily dose of Franklor Tablet 10 is decided by your doctor based on age, symptom severity, and medical history. Do not exceed the prescribed dose.
