Managing the Side Effects:

Some side effects are temporary and generally harmless, which resolve on discontinuing Zedex Cough Syrup. Taking this syrup with food can help combat these side effects. If you experience severe or persistent side effects from this syrup, consult your doctor.

Zedex Cough Syrup consists of following components:

Chlorpheniramine maleate (2mg): It is an antihistamine which stops the effects of histamine inside the body. It works by stopping the movement of prostaglandins, leukotrienes, and other substances and prevents the movement of pain and inflammatory mediators. It narrows the capillary permeability, promotes smooth muscle relaxation, hence, there is reduced allergy reactions.
Dextromethorphan Hydrobromide (10mg): It is an antitussive (cough suppressant) which works centrally inside the brain in specific regions like medulla and nucleus tractus solaris and increases the threshold or heightens the pain perception.

Pregnancy

It is advised to avoid the consumption of Zedex Cough Syrup during pregnancy, particularly in the third trimester, as it has the potential to cross the placenta and negatively impact the developing baby, leading to deformities and undesirable defects.

Breastfeeding

Zedex Cough Syrup use is not recommended while breastfeeding, as it can potentially transfer into breast milk and affect the growth and development of the newborn. It is advisable to consult with a doctor before using this syrup during breastfeeding.

Alcohol

It is better to refrain from the use of alcohol with Zedex Cough Syrup as it may cause an increase in drowsiness.

Liver

Patients with liver disease need to be cautious when using Zedex Cough Syrup. The risk of unfavourable side effects may be higher in those with liver illness who have trouble absorbing drugs. Before consuming this syrup, seek medical advice from your doctor.

Kidney

Zedex Cough Syrup should be taken cautiously in patients with kidney disease or problems. Consult your doctor for advice before taking the syrup.

Using Machines & Driving

It is not recommended to drive after consuming Zedex Cough Syrup because it produces drowsiness and dizziness, which impairs driving ability.

Children

Zedex Cough Syrup is recommended for children below two years. Your doctor will recommend the appropriate dosage depending on your child's age, weight, and medical condition. Before using Zedex Cough Syrup, speak with your doctor.

Central nervous system depressants like Diazepam: This medication may enhance the sedative effects of central nervous system depressants.

Drug-Disease Interactions

The Zedex Cough Syrup can interact with diseases, including

Hypertension: It may exacerbate hypertension due to its phenylephrine component, potentially increasing blood pressure levels.
Diabetes: In patients with diabetes, this syrup can affect blood sugar levels, necessitating close monitoring and potential adjustments in diabetes management.
Liver disease: Individuals with liver diseases should use Zedex Cough Syrup with caution, as the liver plays a role in metabolizing the syrup's components.
