SAN-DRIST-CP
Description_Effects
SAN-DRIST-CP is an oral suspension that combines four active ingredients—Paracetamol 125 mg, Phenylephrine Hydrochloride 5 mg, Chlorpheniramine Maleate 0.5 mg, and Sodium Citrate 60 mg per 5 ml—to provide comprehensive relief from common cold symptoms in children. Paracetamol acts as a pain reliever and fever reducer, helping to ease headaches, body aches, and reduce fever associated with colds. Phenylephrine is a decongestant that works by shrinking swollen blood vessels in the nasal passages, relieving nasal congestion and making breathing easier. Chlorpheniramine Maleate is an antihistamine that helps reduce sneezing, runny nose, and watery eyes by blocking the effects of histamine, a chemical involved in allergic reactions. Sodium Citrate acts as a mucolytic agent that thins and loosens thick mucus in the respiratory tract, helping clear the airways and reduce chest congestion. Together, these ingredients provide effective multi-symptom relief by targeting pain, fever, nasal blockage, allergy symptoms, and mucus build-up, making this combination especially useful in managing cold symptoms in children. The medicine typically begins to work quickly to improve comfort and aid recovery, allowing children to carry on with daily activities more comfortably. It is important to use SAN-DRIST-CP exactly as prescribed by a healthcare professional. The medication should be administered in the recommended dosage to avoid side effects. Common side effects may include drowsiness, dry mouth, dizziness, or mild stomach upset. Parents should monitor their child for any adverse reactions and seek medical advice if unusual symptoms occur. Since Phenylephrine can sometimes increase blood pressure, caution is advised, especially in children with heart conditions. SAN-DRIST-CP suspension provides a balanced approach to cold symptom relief, combining fever and pain control with nasal decongestion and allergy symptom management, making it a reliable choice for pediatric care during common cold episodes.
