Overview
Decolgen Fx Capsule is a combination cold and flu remedy containing paracetamol, pseudoephedrine, and chlorpheniramine maleate, used to relieve fever, headache, body aches, nasal congestion, sneezing, and runny nose associated with the common cold or flu.
Paracetamol reduces fever and pain, pseudoephedrine constricts swollen nasal blood vessels to relieve congestion, and chlorpheniramine blocks histamine to reduce sneezing and a runny nose – together targeting the main symptoms of a cold in one product.
How it Works
Paracetamol acts centrally to reduce the production of prostaglandins that cause pain and fever. Pseudoephedrine is a sympathomimetic that narrows dilated nasal blood vessels, reducing swelling and congestion. Chlorpheniramine is a first-generation antihistamine that blocks H1 receptors, reducing sneezing, itching, and nasal discharge, though it can also cause drowsiness.
Directions for Use
Take Decolgen Fx Capsule with a glass of water, with or after food. Avoid alcohol while taking this product, and do not take any other paracetamol-containing medicine at the same time, as this can lead to an accidental overdose. Use caution when driving or operating machinery, as this product may cause drowsiness in some people.
Dosage
The usual adult dose of Decolgen Fx Capsule is one capsule every 6-8 hours as needed for symptom relief, not exceeding the maximum daily dose stated on the product label. Do not use for more than a few days without consulting a doctor or pharmacist if symptoms persist.
Shelf Life
