Febrex Plus Tablet
Description
Febrex Plus Tablet is a trusted medicine for relieving the symptoms of common cold, cough, and fever. It helps in reducing fever, easing dry cough, clearing nasal congestion, and controlling allergic symptoms affecting the nose, throat, and airways. The tablet contains a combination of paracetamol, chlorpheniramine, and phenylephrine, which work together to provide fast and effective relief.
The combined action of its ingredients makes Febrex Plus highly effective. Paracetamol helps lower fever and reduce pain or discomfort. Chlorpheniramine, an antiallergic agent, controls sneezing, runny nose, and watery eyes caused by allergies. Phenylephrine works as a nasal decongestant, relieving a stuffy nose and sinus pressure by narrowing the blood vessels in the nasal passages.
Febrex Plus should always be taken in the exact dose and duration prescribed by the doctor. The tablet should be swallowed whole with a glass of water and can be taken with or without food. Taking more than the recommended dose can be harmful, as excessive paracetamol may cause liver damage and lead to other unwanted side effects. For best results, it is important to follow the doctor’s instructions closely.
Some other medicines with a similar composition include Wikoryl 10mg tablet and New Coriminic P tablet. However, even if they contain the same active ingredients, it is important to confirm with your doctor before switching brands, as there may be differences in dosage or formulation that could affect safety and effectiveness.
Febrex Plus should be avoided if you are allergic to any of its components. Before starting this medicine, inform your doctor if you are pregnant, planning to conceive, or breastfeeding. It is also important to share your complete medical history, especially if you have liver problems, high blood pressure, heart disease, or thyroid disorders. Additionally, let your doctor know about all other medicines and supplements you are taking to avoid potential drug interactions.
