Overview Dexophen SG Soft Gelatin Capsule

Sofgel Dexophen capsules are indicated for symptomatic relief of common cold and cough. This medication offers rapid alleviation of cold and cough symptoms including nasal discharge, congestion, sneezing, lacrimation, and sinus pressure. Dosage and duration of Sofgel Dexophen are determined by your physician and should be followed precisely. Treatment should continue as directed; premature cessation may lead to symptom recurrence and potential exacerbation. Inform your doctor of all other medications you are using, as interactions are possible. Headache, drowsiness, diplopia, emesis, diarrhea, xerostomia, and nausea are potential side effects, most of which are transient. Report any concerning side effects immediately to your physician. Drowsiness is a possible side effect; avoid driving or tasks requiring alertness until its effects on you are known. Alcohol should be avoided due to potential additive sedative effects. Self-medication and recommending this medication to others are strongly discouraged. Adequate hydration is recommended. Consult your physician before use if pregnant, planning pregnancy, breastfeeding, or if you have hepatic or renal impairment, to ensure appropriate dosage.
