PRODUCT DETAILS
About Actifed Plus Tablet
PARACETAMOL+PSEUDOEPHEDRINE+TRIPROLIDINE is a combination medicine used to relieve symptoms of cold, flu and allergies such as the runny nose, watery eyes, sneezing, nasal congestion, fever and blocked sinuses. The common cold is a respiratory illness that affects the nose and throat. It is mostly caused by a virus known as rhinovirus.
PARACETAMOL+PSEUDOEPHEDRINE+TRIPROLIDINE is a combination of three drugs, namely: Paracetamol (Analgesic), Triprolidine (Antihistamine) and Pseudoephedrine (Decongestant). Paracetamol blocks the release of chemical messengers that cause pain and fever. Triprolidine reduces the effects of histamine, which causes watery eyes, runny nose and sneezing. Pseudoephedrine works by reducing the swelling of blood vessels in your nose. This helps mucus and airflow more freely in the cavities in your nose (sinuses), allowing you to breathe more easily. Together, PARACETAMOL+PSEUDOEPHEDRINE+TRIPROLIDINE helps in providing relief from cold symptoms.
