Mode of Action
How Does It Work?
- Cheston Cold and Flu tablets are a combination medicine designed to relieve symptoms of the common cold, including headache, fever, nasal congestion, runny nose, and body aches. The effectiveness of these tablets comes from the combined action of their ingredients.
- Paracetamol and nimesulide work together to reduce fever and alleviate pain by blocking the production of prostaglandins, which are responsible for inflammation.
- Phenylephrine acts as a nasal decongestant by narrowing blood vessels in the nasal passages, helping to ease breathing.
- Cetirizine is an antihistamine that reduces allergy symptoms such as sneezing, a runny nose, and watery eyes.
- Caffeine enhances alertness and may further increase the pain-relieving effect of paracetamol, helping you feel more active and less fatigued during your illness.
