How it Works

How Paracetamol, Phenylpropanolamine, Chlorpheniramine Maleate, and Caffeine Work Paracetamol, Phenylpropanolamine, Chlorpheniramine Maleate, and Caffeine is a combination of four medications that relieve common cold symptoms. Paracetamol is an analgesic (pain reliever) and antipyretic (fever reducer) that works by blocking the release of certain chemical messengers that cause fever and pain. Phenylpropanolamine is a decongestant that narrows blood vessels in the nose to alleviate congestion. Chlorpheniramine Maleate is an antihistamine that relieves allergy symptoms such as a runny nose, watery eyes, and sneezing. Caffeine enhances the effectiveness of Paracetamol and reduces drowsiness caused by Chlorpheniramine Maleate.
