Description
- Cofson Cough Syrup is indicated for the symptomatic relief of upper respiratory tract disorders accompanied by productive cough which benefits from the administration of a nasal decongestant, a histamine H1 receptor antagonist and an expectorant combination. The medicine contains Pseudoephedrine, Guaifenesin and Triprolidine. It reduces the viscosity of tenacious sputum and is used as an expectorant. It increases the hydration of the respiratory tract, thereby increasing the volume and reducing the viscosity of bronchial secretions. It is also an antihistamine used for the symptomatic relief of hypersensitivity reactions including rhinitis, conjunctivitis, and urticaria.
