MACBERY DX SYP 100ML

About

MACBERY DX Syrup is a cough and cold medication primarily used to relieve dry, irritating coughs. It typically contains Dextromethorphan, a cough suppressant that acts on the cough center in the brain to reduce the urge to cough. Often, it is combined with other active ingredients such as an antihistamine (e.g., Chlorpheniramine) to alleviate allergic symptoms like sneezing and runny nose, and/or a decongestant (e.g., Phenylephrine) to reduce nasal congestion. This combination targets multiple symptoms of the common cold or allergies.

The syrup is formulated to provide symptomatic relief, allowing for improved comfort and sleep, especially when a cough is non-productive and disruptive. It helps to soothe the throat and reduce irritation caused by persistent coughing. It is important to note that this medication is generally not recommended for productive coughs where mucus needs to be expelled. Patients should adhere strictly to the prescribed dosage and duration, as misuse or overdose can lead to adverse effects, particularly due to the central nervous system depressant properties of some components.
