Sinarest Plus – Bottle of 75ml Suspension

Sinarest Plus Suspension (75ml) is a medication commonly used to treat symptoms associated with cold, flu, and allergies. It is formulated as a suspension (liquid form) for easy administration, particularly for children or those who prefer not to take tablets.

Composition:

Sinarest Plus Suspension typically contains the following active ingredients:

1. Paracetamol (Acetaminophen): Pain reliever and fever reducer. It is used to reduce fever and alleviate mild to moderate pain, such as headaches, body aches, and sore throat associated with cold or flu.
2. Chlorpheniramine Maleate: Antihistamine used to relieve allergy symptoms like sneezing, runny nose, itching, and watery eyes. It helps alleviate cold and allergy-related symptoms.
3. Phenylephrine: Decongestant that works by narrowing the blood vessels in the nasal passages to reduce swelling and congestion, making it easier to breathe through the nose.

Uses:

Sinarest Plus Suspension is typically used for:

• Relieving symptoms of the common cold: Includes nasal congestion, sneezing, runny nose, and mild fever.
• Treating allergic rhinitis: Helps reduce symptoms like sneezing, nasal congestion, and itchy or watery eyes.
• Pain and fever relief: Reduces mild to moderate pain and lowers fever associated with colds, flu, or other infections.

Dosage:

The dosage for Sinarest Plus Suspension will depend on the age and weight of the patient. Always follow the dosage instructions on the label or as prescribed by a healthcare professional. Typically:

• Adults and children over 12 years: 10-15 ml every 4-6 hours as needed.
• Children (6-12 years): 5-10 ml every 4-6 hours.
• Children under 6 years: Consult a healthcare provider for the appropriate dosage.

Side Effects:

Some common side effects of Sinarest Plus Suspension may include:

• Drowsiness or dizziness (due to chlorpheniramine, which is a sedating antihistamine).
• Dry mouth, throat, or nose.
• Upset stomach or nausea.
• Increased heart rate or elevated blood pressure (due to phenylephrine, the decongestant).
• Allergic reactions: Rare but may include rash, itching, or swelling.

Precautions:

• Consult a doctor before using Sinarest Plus Suspension, especially in children, pregnant or breastfeeding women, or those with pre-existing medical conditions like high blood pressure, heart disease, or liver problems.
• Do not exceed the recommended dose. Overuse of paracetamol can cause liver damage, while excessive phenylephrine may lead to elevated blood pressure or other cardiovascular issues.
• Avoid combining with other medications that contain similar active ingredients, such as additional antihistamines, decongestants, or pain relievers.
