Sunward Polarax 2mg Tablet 10s (strip)
RM 2.30
Sunward Polarax 2mg Tablet is an oral antihistamine medicine belonging to the alkylamine class of first-generation antihistamines, and its active ingredient is Dexchlorpheniramine Maleate 2mg — the more pharmacologically potent S-enantiomer of Chlorpheniramine, recognised for its reliable antihistaminic and mild anticholinergic properties.
As with all medicines, there are side effects you should be aware of, and the most commonly reported ones with Polarax include drowsiness or sedation, dizziness, dry mouth (xerostomia), and difficulty urinating (urinary retention) — which is why you should exercise real caution before driving, operating machinery, or performing any activity that requires full mental alertness after taking this tablet.
A few important things you should know before using Polarax 2mg: this product is manufactured by Sunward Pharmaceutical Sdn. Bhd., a Malaysian-based pharmaceutical company registered with the NPRA, so you can be confident you are purchasing a locally regulated product; it must never be given to newborns or premature infants; and if you are currently taking any monoamine oxidase inhibitor (MAOI) medication, you must not use this product, as a serious and potentially dangerous drug interaction can occur.
Always consult your doctor or pharmacist before starting this medication, particularly if you have a history of asthma, glaucoma, urinary problems, cardiovascular conditions, or hyperthyroidism.
Sunward Polarax 2mg Tablet should be swallowed whole with a full glass of water and can be taken with or without food — though taking it with food or milk may help reduce the chance of mild stomach upset in sensitive individuals.
Follow your doctor's or pharmacist's instructions precisely regarding the dose and timing, and do not exceed the recommended daily dose or take it more frequently than directed, as overuse of antihistamines can increase the risk of adverse effects.
Due to its sedative properties, it is particularly important to take this tablet at a time that minimises safety risks — for many people, evening use is preferable to avoid daytime drowsiness.
For adults and children aged 12 years and above, the generally recommended dose of Sunward Polarax 2mg Tablet is one tablet (2mg) taken up to three times daily, or as directed by a doctor; for children aged 6 to below 12 years, the typical dose is half a tablet (1mg) up to three times daily, under adult supervision and medical guidance.
All dosage decisions — including paediatric dosing, frequency, and duration of treatment — should be confirmed by a qualified healthcare professional based on the individual's age, weight, and clinical condition.
Sunward Polarax 2mg Tablet typically carries a shelf life of 36 months (3 years) from the date of manufacture, as stated on the blister pack and outer carton.
Always check and verify the expiry date printed on the packaging before taking any tablet — do not consume this medicine after the expiry date has passed, even if the tablets appear visually unchanged, as the potency and chemical stability of Dexchlorpheniramine Maleate may have deteriorated.
Once the pack has been opened, store the remaining tablets appropriately and use them within the timeframe indicated on the packaging or as advised by your pharmacist.
Dispose of any expired or unused tablets responsibly by returning them to a licensed pharmacy rather than discarding them in regular household waste or flushing them down the drain.
Store Sunward Polarax 2mg Tablet at room temperature, between 20°C and 25°C (68°F to 77°F), in a cool and dry place away from direct sunlight, heat, and moisture.
Given Malaysia's tropical climate — characterised by consistently high humidity and temperatures — it is especially important to avoid storing this medication in bathrooms, near kitchen sinks, on window ledges, or inside vehicles, as such environments can accelerate the degradation of the active ingredient and compromise tablet quality.
Keep the tablets in their original blister packaging until the point of use, and store the pack in its outer carton to protect it from light and environmental exposure.
This medication must be stored completely out of reach and sight of children at all times, and should not be placed in unlabelled containers, as this increases the risk of accidental misuse or medication errors.
Like all first-generation antihistamines, Sunward Polarax 2mg Tablet may cause a range of side effects. Some are very common and predictable based on the drug's anticholinergic and sedative properties, while others are less common but clinically important. Not everyone will experience all of these effects, and their severity varies between individuals.
Important: This is not an exhaustive list. If you experience any unusual, persistent, or severe reaction after taking Sunward Polarax 2mg Tablet, stop use and seek prompt medical advice from your doctor or nearest healthcare facility.

What should I do if I accidentally take too much Sunward Polarax 2mg Tablet?
