About Sinarest Fxp Tablet

FEXOFENADINE+PARACETAMOL+PHENYLEPHRINE belongs to the class of medications called ‘cough and cold preparations’ used in the treatment of the common cold and allergic symptoms such as the runny nose, sneezing, itchy or watery eyes, and blocked nose. The common cold is a respiratory illness of the nose and throat caused by ‘rhinoviruses’. Allergies are immune system reactions to foreign bodies or allergens such as certain foods, chemicals, pet dander, or pollen.

FEXOFENADINE+PARACETAMOL+PHENYLEPHRINE contains Fexofenadine, Paracetamol, and Phenylephrine. Fexofenadine is an antiallergic medicine. It blocks the release of histamine, chemical substances that cause allergic symptoms such as the runny nose, watery eyes, itching, sneezing, and swelling or congestion. Paracetamol is an analgesic (reduce pain) and antipyretic (reduce fever). It can block the production of prostaglandins (chemical substances), thereby decreasing pain, swelling, and inflammation. Phenylephrine is a decongestant that can reduce swelling in the nasal passages making it easy to breathe.

You should take this medicine exactly as prescribed by the doctor. The common side-effects of FEXOFENADINE+PARACETAMOL+PHENYLEPHRINE are nausea, vomiting, headache, ear pain, trouble sleeping, restlessness, and palpitations (pounding heart).

Paracetamol is an analgesic (relieves pain) and antipyretic (reduces fever) that works by inhibiting the production of certain chemical messengers in the brain known as 'prostaglandin responsible for pain and fever.
