SUMO COLD TAB 10

About

Sumo Cold Tab is a comprehensive combination medication specifically formulated to provide effective relief from the various symptoms associated with the common cold and flu. It typically comprises an analgesic and antipyretic agent, such as paracetamol, to reduce fever and alleviate body aches and headaches. Additionally, it includes a nasal decongestant, like phenylephrine, which works by narrowing blood vessels in the nasal passages to reduce swelling and congestion, thereby improving breathing. An antihistamine, such as chlorpheniramine maleate, is often incorporated to combat allergic symptoms like sneezing, runny nose, and watery eyes. Some formulations may also contain a mild stimulant like caffeine to counteract the sedative effects of the antihistamine and provide an energy boost. This multi-ingredient approach ensures broad-spectrum symptom management, targeting the discomforts of respiratory infections to help patients feel better and recover more comfortably.
