Cetirizine + Paracetamol (Acetaminophen) + Phenylephrine + Zinc (Elemental Zinc)

Uses

Cetirizine, Paracetamol, Phenylephrine, and Zinc Gluconate are used in the treatment of the common cold.

How it Works

How Cetirizine, Paracetamol, Phenylephrine, and Zinc Gluconate Work Cetirizine, Paracetamol, Phenylephrine, and Zinc Gluconate is a combination of four medications that relieve cold symptoms. Cetirizine is an antihistamine that alleviates allergy symptoms such as a runny nose, watery eyes, and sneezing. Paracetamol is an analgesic (pain reliever) and antipyretic (fever reducer) that blocks the release of certain chemical messengers in the brain responsible for pain and fever. Phenylephrine is a nasal decongestant that narrows small blood vessels, providing relief from nasal congestion or stuffiness. Zinc Gluconate is a nutritional supplement that releases zinc ions into the throat, which inhibit the reproduction of the cold virus, allowing it to die off faster and helping the cold to resolve more quickly.

Side Effects

Common side effects of Cetirizine, Paracetamol, Phenylephrine, and Zinc Gluconate include nausea, vomiting, dryness of the mouth, weakness, headache, sleepiness, and allergic reactions.
