Reswas Syrup 120ml

Reswas Syrup 120ml contains Chlorpheniramine Maleate and Levodropropizine, which are used to relieve cough and cold symptoms. Chlorpheniramine is an antihistamine that reduces sneezing, runny nose, and nasal itching, while Levodropropizine is a non‑opioid cough suppressant that reduces dry or irritating cough. Together, Reswas Syrup 120ml helps control cough, runny nose, and sneezing in upper respiratory infections, allergies, or bronchitis, making breathing and sleep more comfortable.

Reswas Syrup 120ml combines Chlorpheniramine Maleate, a first‑generation antihistamine, and Levodropropizine, a non‑opioid cough suppressant. Chlorpheniramine blocks histamine H1 receptors, reducing sneezing, runny nose, and nasal itching. Levodropropizine acts on the cough centre and airway nerves to reduce the urge to cough, especially for dry or non‑productive cough, with less sedation than older opioid‑type cough medicines.

This combination is used for short‑term relief of cough and nasal symptoms caused by colds, mild bronchitis, or allergic‑type nasal irritation. The effect usually starts within 1–2 hours and may last several hours per dose, depending on the product and dose schedule. When used as directed, Reswas Syrup 120ml is generally well‑tolerated for mild‑to‑moderate symptoms.

Reswas Syrup 120ml should be taken exactly as prescribed. The usual adult dose is taken 2–3 times daily, depending on the formulation and your symptoms. For children, the dose is adjusted by age and weight; follow your doctor’s or package‑label instructions. Swallow the medicine with water and avoid crushing or splitting unless directed. Do not drive or operate heavy machinery if you feel drowsy. Avoid alcohol and other sedating medicines unless cleared by your doctor. Do not use Reswas Syrup 120ml for more than a few days without medical advice, especially if you have asthma, chronic lung disease, or an ongoing fever.

Reswas Syrup 120ml works by two actions. Chlorpheniramine Maleate blocks histamine H1 receptors, reducing sneezing, runny nose, and nasal itching. Levodropropizine acts on the central cough centre and peripheral airway nerves to reduce the cough reflex and the urge to cough without strong sedation or respiratory depression. This dual effect helps control both cough and nasal symptoms in upper respiratory illnesses and allergic‑type irritation.

• Monitor Your Symptoms: Keep note of when your cough or runny nose started, what makes it worse (such as cold air, smoke, or lying down), and how well Reswas Syrup 120ml controls your cough and nasal symptoms; share this with your doctor to adjust or stop the medicine if needed.

• Avoid Self‑Medicating Long‑Term: Reswas Syrup 120ml is meant for short‑term relief of cough and cold symptoms; if your cough lasts more than a few days, or you have fever, chest pain, or shortness of breath, contact your doctor rather than continuing the medicine on your own.

• Limit Alcohol and Sedatives: Alcohol and other sedating medicines (such as sleep aids or strong antihistamines) can increase drowsiness from Reswas Syrup 120ml ; avoid them together, especially before driving or operating machinery.

• Be Careful with Other Cough/Cold Pills: Do not take extra cough syrups, cold tablets, or multiple antihistamines unless your doctor says they are safe, as combined use can cause excess drowsiness, dry mouth, or other side effects.

• Report New Breathing or Allergic Symptoms: If you develop new or worsening wheezing, tight chest, severe shortness of breath, or a rash with swelling of the face or tongue, stop Reswas Syrup 120ml and seek urgent medical help, as these may be signs of allergy or asthma‑type problems.

• Ask About Underlying Lung Disease: If you have asthma, chronic bronchitis, or COPD, your doctor may prefer a different cough‑treatment plan; discuss your full lung‑health history before using Reswas Syrup 120ml regularly.

• Use a Simple Dose Reminder: If you often forget doses, use a pill organiser or phone reminders so you do not accidentally take an extra dose, which can increase drowsiness or side effects.

• Alcohol (MODERATE): Large amounts of alcohol can worsen drowsiness and dizziness from Reswas Syrup 120ml ; limit alcohol and avoid it before activities that need alertness.

• Sedating Antihistamines or Sleep Medicines (MODERATE): Combining Reswas Syrup 120ml with other strongly sedating drugs can increase drowsiness and reduce alertness; use only under medical advice.

• Other Cough or Cold Medicines (MODERATE): Many OTC cough and cold products contain overlapping ingredients; your pharmacist can help you avoid doubling up on antihistamines or cough suppressants.

• Strong Painkillers or Sedatives (MODERATE): Medicines that cause drowsiness (such as some opioids or benzodiazepines) can add to the sedative effect of Reswas Syrup 120ml ; review all medicines with your doctor.

• Asthma or Severe COPD (MODERATE): Cough suppressants may reduce the protective cough reflex; use under medical supervision if you have lung disease or wheezing.

• Severe Liver Disease (MODERATE): Liver disease may increase side effects; your doctor may review the dose or choose a safer alternative.

• Severe Kidney Disease (MODERATE): In advanced kidney disease, your doctor may review other medicines and adjust your treatment plan to avoid side‑effect build‑up.

If you miss a dose and it is not near your next dose, take it when you remember. If it is almost time for the next dose, skip the missed one and continue as usual. Do not take a double dose to make up for a missed dose, as this can increase drowsiness or other side effects. Use a pill organiser or phone reminders if you often forget doses.
