Precautions and Warnings

Pregnancy

Pregnancy

Consult your doctor before use during pregnancy. Antihistamines are generally considered safe, but your doctor will assess individual risks and benefits.

Breast Feeding

Breast Feeding

Small amounts may pass into breast milk. Consult your doctor before breastfeeding while taking this medicine.

Driving

Driving

Avoid driving or operating machinery. This medicine causes significant drowsiness and dizziness that impair alertness and coordination.

Alcohol

Alcohol

Strict avoidance of alcohol is necessary. Alcohol increases drowsiness, dizziness, and impaired judgment.

Directions for Use

Take the tablet by mouth with or without food as directed by your doctor. Swallow whole; do not crush or chew. Take at the same time each day for consistent symptom control. Do not exceed the dose prescribed. Follow timing instructions on the label or from your healthcare provider.

Storage and disposal

Store at room temperature in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Keep the container tightly sealed. Store out of reach of children and pets. Discard unused medicine according to local guidelines.

Quick Tips

  • Avoid driving or operating machinery due to drowsiness
  • Drink plenty of water to counteract dry mouth
  • Use sugarless gum or lozenges if dry mouth persists
  • Do not use with alcohol or other depressants
  • Inform your doctor if drowsiness is severe or bothersome

Dosage

Overdose

Overdose may cause severe drowsiness, confusion, hallucinations, rapid heartbeat, or seizures. Seek emergency medical attention immediately. Treatment is supportive; there is no specific antidote.

Missed a Dose

Take the missed dose as soon as you remember, unless it is nearly time for the next scheduled dose. Skip the missed dose and continue your regular schedule. Never take two doses at once.

How does this medicine work?

Dexchlorpheniramine blocks histamine, the natural chemical responsible for triggering allergic reactions, from acting in the body. It eases symptoms including itching, swelling, and watery secretions. The medicine also has mild drying and sedating effects, which contribute to symptom relief.

Interactions

Interactions with other medicines

Avoid concurrent use with monoamine oxidase inhibitors. Central nervous system depressants (alcohol, opioids, sedatives) enhance drowsiness and impairment. Tricyclic antidepressants and anticholinergic medications may have additive effects. Inform your doctor of all medications.

Interactions with food items

No significant food interactions. Take with food if the tablet causes nausea. Avoid alcohol, as it increases drowsiness and impairs alertness.
