RISTOLEX PLUS 10'S

About

Ristolex Plus is a multi-ingredient medication specifically formulated to provide comprehensive symptomatic relief from common cold, flu, and allergic conditions. It typically combines an analgesic and antipyretic, such as paracetamol (acetaminophen), to effectively reduce fever and alleviate associated body aches and headaches. A decongestant, like phenylephrine, is included to constrict blood vessels in the nasal passages, thereby reducing swelling and relieving bothersome nasal and sinus congestion. Additionally, an antihistamine, such as chlorpheniramine, is incorporated to counteract the effects of histamine, providing significant relief from allergic symptoms like sneezing, runny nose, and watery eyes. This synergistic formulation targets several common symptoms simultaneously, offering broad-spectrum relief and significantly improving overall comfort and well-being during periods of illness or allergic reactions, allowing individuals to manage their symptoms more effectively throughout the day.
