Description_Effects
Starest-Plus Suspension is a multi-ingredient oral medication commonly used for the relief of cold, cough, and flu-related symptoms. It contains Paracetamol 250mg, Chlorpheniramine Maleate 2mg, Phenylephrine Hydrochloride 5mg, Sodium Citrate 60mg, and Menthol 1mg in each 5ml dose. This combination provides relief from fever, nasal congestion, sneezing, sore throat, and mild body aches. Paracetamol is an antipyretic and analgesic that helps reduce fever and relieve pain. Chlorpheniramine Maleate is an antihistamine that controls allergic symptoms like runny nose, sneezing, and watery eyes. Phenylephrine Hydrochloride is a decongestant that shrinks swollen blood vessels in the nasal passages, making breathing easier. Sodium Citrate acts as a mucolytic, thinning mucus in the airways to make it easier to cough out. Menthol provides a cooling effect that soothes throat irritation and helps open up nasal passages. Starest-Plus is usually prescribed for children and adults suffering from symptoms of the common cold, allergic rhinitis, flu, sinusitis, or upper respiratory tract infections. The syrup is well-tolerated when taken as per the doctor’s recommendation. Possible side effects include drowsiness, dry mouth, nausea, or mild digestive upset. It is important to avoid alcohol and other sedating medicines while using this syrup. Always follow the dosage instructions strictly.
