How Does It Work?

• Allercet Cold Tablet works by the combined action of its three components, namely Paracetamol, Phenylephrine and Levocetirizine.

• Phenylephrine acts by constricting the blood vessels around the nose and thus reduces swelling. This helps in clearing the blocked nose.
• Levocetirizine acts by inhibiting a substance called Histamine, which results in symptoms like swelling, running nose, rashes associated with allergy.
