Hatric-3 – Bottle of 60 ml Suspension

Hatric-3 Suspension is a combination medicine used for the relief of symptoms related to common colds, allergies, and other respiratory issues. Here’s a detailed overview of the product:

Product Overview:

• Product Name: Hatric-3 Suspension
• Form: Suspension (Liquid form)
• Quantity: Bottle of 60 ml

Composition (per 5 ml of Suspension):

• Paracetamol (Acetaminophen) – 125 mg:
  Paracetamol is a commonly used analgesic and antipyretic. It is used to reduce fever and relieve mild to moderate pain, such as headaches, body aches, and sore throat.
• Pseudoephedrine – 15 mg:
  Pseudoephedrine is a decongestant that works by shrinking the blood vessels in the nasal passages, which helps reduce nasal congestion caused by colds, allergies, or sinus infections.
• Chlorpheniramine Maleate – 1 mg:
  Chlorpheniramine is an antihistamine that helps relieve allergy symptoms like sneezing, itching, runny nose, and watery eyes by blocking the effects of histamine, a substance that causes allergic symptoms.

Indications:

Hatric-3 Suspension is primarily used for the relief of symptoms associated with:

• Common Cold: For symptoms like nasal congestion, sore throat, and body aches.
• Allergic Rhinitis: For sneezing, runny nose, and watery eyes caused by allergies.
• Sinus Congestion: To help relieve congestion in the nasal passages and sinuses.
• Fever and Pain: To reduce fever and mild to moderate pain, such as headaches or body aches.

Mechanism of Action:

• Paracetamol: Relieves pain and reduces fever by inhibiting the production of prostaglandins (chemicals in the body that cause pain and inflammation).
• Pseudoephedrine: Acts as a nasal decongestant by constricting blood vessels in the nasal passages, which helps reduce swelling and congestion.
• Chlorpheniramine: Works by blocking histamine receptors, thereby reducing allergic symptoms like sneezing, runny nose, and itching.

Dosage:

• The dosage should be as directed by the physician. Typically, the recommended dose is based on the child’s or adult’s age, weight, and the severity of the symptoms.
• Common Dosage: For children and adults, the typical dose is taken 2-3 times a day, depending on the severity of the symptoms, but always follow the physician’s instructions.

Storage Instructions:

• Store the Hatric-3 Suspension in a cool, dry place away from moisture.
• Ensure that the temperature does not exceed 30°C.
• Keep out of reach of children to avoid accidental ingestion.

Precautions:

• Pregnancy and Breastfeeding: Consult a healthcare provider before using this medication if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.
• Kidney or Liver Issues: Use with caution if you have any kidney or liver disorders, especially since Paracetamol can affect the liver.
• Children: Dosage and frequency should be carefully adjusted for children, and this product should be used under a doctor’s guidance.
• Alcohol: Avoid alcohol consumption while taking this medicine, as it can increase the risk of liver damage, especially when combined with Paracetamol.

Common side effects may include:
