How Metcold-DS Oral Suspension works:

Chlorpheniramine maleate, an antihistamine, alleviates allergic manifestations such as rhinorrhea, lacrimation, and sneezing. Paracetamol acts as both an analgesic, mitigating pain, and an antipyretic, reducing fever, by inhibiting the production of specific neurotransmitters responsible for these sensations. Phenylephrine, a nasal decongestant, constricts blood vessels in the nasal passages, thereby relieving stuffiness. Sodium citrate, a mucolytic agent, facilitates expectoration by liquefying mucus. Finally, menthol, an organic substance, imparts a cooling sensation and soothes minor throat discomfort.
