Tussin Syrup
Prescription Required
Product introduction
Tussin Syrup is a combination medicine used in the treatment of cough. It narrows the small blood vessels and provides relief from congestion or stuffiness in the nose. It also relieves allergy symptoms like watery eyes, sneezing, runny nose, and throat irritation.
Tussin Syrup may be taken with or without food. Take it in the dose and duration as advised by the doctor. The dose you are given will depend on your condition and how you respond to the medicine. You should keep taking this medicine for as long as your doctor recommends. If you stop treatment too early your symptoms may come back and your condition may worsen.
Common side effects of this medication include sedation (sleepiness), dry mouth, nausea, vomiting, dizziness, gastrointestinal discomfort, and headache. Most of these are temporary and usually resolve with time. Let your doctor know if you are at all concerned about any of these side effects. This medicine can also cause dizziness and sleepiness, so do not drive or do anything that requires mental focus until you know how this medicine affects you. Avoid drinking alcohol while taking this medicine as it can make dizziness worse.
Before taking Tussin Syrup, you should tell your doctor if you have any kidney or liver diseases so that your doctor can prescribe a suitable dose for you. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should also consult their doctor before taking this medicine. Never support self-medication or recommend your medicine to another person.

How to use Tussin Syrup

How Tussin Syrup works
Tussin Syrup combines five medicines: Cetirizine, Phenylephrine, Ambroxol, Guaifenesin, and Sodium citrate. Cetirizine blocks the effects of histamine, a chemical the body produces in response to allergens. It helps to reduce allergy symptoms, such as sneezing, runny nose, and itchy or watery eyes. Phenylephrine is a decongestant that constricts blood vessels in the nasal passages, reducing swelling and congestion. Ambroxol, guaifenesin, and sodium citrate work by thinning and loosening the mucus in the airways and clearing congestion.
