Medical Description

Mits Linctus D Syrup is used to manage dry cough in upper respiratory tract infections like common cold and allergies. Cough helps in removing the irritants such as dust, mucous, allergens, bacteria, etc., to clear the airway and prevent infection. Mits Linctus D Syrup consists of two active components: chlorpheniramine and codeine. Chlorpheniramine belongs to the class of antihistamine, which helps in lowering allergy reactions. Codeine is a narcotic cough suppressant, which blocks the signals responsible for the stimulus that causes cough. This syrup can cause a few side effects like drowsiness, dizziness, blurred vision, etc. Try to drink plenty of water to help loosen the mucus and prevent dehydration. It can decrease sweating and increase the chances of a heat stroke. This medicine is not recommended for children. Do not take Mits Linctus D Syrup with others that cause drowsiness.
