Overview Lecongest Tablet

RespirAid tablets offer symptomatic relief from the common cold. They temporarily alleviate nasal congestion and provide relief from allergy symptoms such as rhinorrhea and lacrimation. RespirAid should be taken as directed by your physician, with or without food; however, taking it with food may minimize stomach discomfort. Dosage is individualized based on your condition and response. Complete the prescribed course of treatment; premature discontinuation may lead to symptom recurrence and potential worsening of your condition. Inform your doctor about all other medications you are currently using, as interactions may occur. Common side effects include nausea, vomiting, headache, dry mouth, agitation, tiredness, and difficulty sleeping. Most side effects are transient and self-limiting. Report any concerning side effects to your doctor immediately. Drowsiness and dizziness are possible; avoid driving or activities requiring alertness until you understand the medicine's effects on you. Refrain from alcohol consumption during treatment to prevent increased dizziness. Prior to initiating treatment, disclose any kidney or liver conditions, or if you are pregnant, planning pregnancy, or breastfeeding, to enable your doctor to determine the appropriate dosage.

How Lecongest Tablet works:

Lecongest tablets contain a four-drug formulation: caffeine, cetirizine, paracetamol, and phenylephrine. Cetirizine, an antihistamine, alleviates allergy symptoms such as nasal discharge, lacrimation, and sneezing. Paracetamol acts as both an analgesic (pain reliever) and an antipyretic (fever reducer), inhibiting the release of pain and fever-inducing chemicals. Caffeine, a stimulant, potentiates paracetamol's action and counteracts cetirizine-induced drowsiness. Phenylephrine, a nasal decongestant, constricts blood vessels in the nasal passages, offering temporary relief from congestion.
