How Does It Work?

• Viscodyne D syrup contains a combination of chlorpheniramine and dextromethorphan as active substances.
• Natural substances like histamine released in our body are responsible for allergies, such as sneezing or runny nose. Chlorpheniramine blocks the effect of these substances and provides relief of symptoms of a common cold.
• There are specific areas in the brain called the cough center, which when activated, produces coughing. Dextromethorphan affects these areas and deactivates them, thus helping in relieving the coughing.

• Some medicines can affect the way Viscodyne D syrup works or this medicine itself can reduce the effectiveness of other medicines taken at the same time.
