Overview

Acticol Syrup contains Pseudoephedrine Hydrochloride and Triprolidine Hydrochloride and is available as a syrup. It is classified as a prescription medicine and may only be obtained with a valid prescription from a registered medical practitioner.

Only product, safety and handling information is published here. Anything beyond that is explained to you directly by your doctor or pharmacist as part of your consultation.

DoctorOnCall is a licensed online pharmacy. Orders for Acticol Syrup are processed only after a doctor has assessed your suitability and issued a prescription, and every order is checked by a registered pharmacist before it is sent out.

Directions for Use

Measure Acticol Syrup using the measuring cup or oral syringe provided rather than a household spoon, to ensure an accurate dose. It may be taken with or without food, though taking it with food can help if it causes stomach discomfort. Use it only for as long as your symptoms persist, unless your doctor advises a longer course.

Dosage

The dose of Acticol Syrup is individualised by your doctor or pharmacist, generally based on age, and should follow the directions on the product label or as prescribed. Do not exceed the recommended dose or take it for longer than advised, and avoid taking other cold, flu, or allergy products at the same time, as many contain the same or similar active ingredients.
