CODISTAR DX SYP100ML

About

Codistar DX Syrup is a comprehensive cough and cold remedy, typically combining a cough suppressant with other active ingredients to address multiple symptoms. It commonly includes Dextromethorphan, an antitussive that acts centrally on the medulla to elevate the cough threshold, thereby reducing the frequency and intensity of dry, non-productive coughs. Additionally, it may contain an antihistamine, such as chlorpheniramine, to alleviate allergic symptoms like sneezing, runny nose, and watery eyes, and a decongestant like phenylephrine to constrict nasal blood vessels and relieve nasal congestion. This multi-ingredient approach provides broad-spectrum relief from common cold and flu symptoms, improving patient comfort and facilitating recovery.
