Description
Nocold Drops is a combination of Chlorpheniramine and Phenylephrine. This medicine is used to treat the symptoms of common cold and allergies such as runny nose, sneezing, cough, itching of the nose and throat, watery eyes, congested nose, etc. in children. It reduces the swelling of the blood vessels in the nasal (nose) passages and helps to ease the blocked or stuffy nose. It also stops the action of a substance in the body that causes allergic symptoms.
Nocold Drops may cause side effects like nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite, sleepiness and headache. If these side effects do not resolve with time or worsen, consult your child's doctor.
Nocold Drops can be given with or without food, as instructed by the doctor. Make sure your child takes this medicine for the recommended duration. If the treatment is stopped early, the symptoms may recur, and your child's condition may worsen.
Nocold Drops is not recommended for use if your child is allergic to it. This medicine should be used with caution if your child has liver, kidney, or heart problems, or asthma (narrowing of the airways causing breathing difficulty). Inform your child’s doctor if your child is on any other medication.
