Overview

Xepa Bena Expectorant is a healthcare product with Diphenhydramine hydrochloride, combined with expectorant ingredients (see the product packaging for the exact formulation) declared as its active content. It is supplied in a pack size of 120ml.

This is a non-prescription product and can be purchased without a prescription. Only product, safety and handling details are published on this page.

An online consultation with a DoctorOnCall doctor or pharmacist is available for this product, and a registered pharmacist reviews each order before dispatch to Malaysia or Singapore. Follow the directions on the label and on the leaflet inside the pack.

Directions for Use

Take Xepa Bena Expectorant by mouth using the measuring cup or spoon supplied with the pack, shaking the bottle well before each use, and space doses evenly through the day as directed on the label; because it can cause drowsiness, avoid driving or operating machinery until you know how it affects you.

Dosage

Dosing is age-based and should follow the directions on the product label or your pharmacist’s advice; adults and older children are generally given a higher dose than young children, taken several times a day as needed for cough with phlegm, up to the maximum stated on the packaging. This expectorant is not generally recommended for very young children without a doctor’s or pharmacist’s specific advice.

Storage Instructions

Store below 30°C in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, keep the cap tightly closed between doses, and store out of the sight and reach of children.

  • Nausea or vomiting
  • Abdominal discomfort
  • Headache
  • Fatigue or weakness
  • Irritability or confusion (with high doses)
  • Metabolic acidosis (in rare or prolonged cases)

Contraindications

  • Known hypersensitivity to diphenhydramine or other ingredients in this expectorant
  • Infants and very young children, unless specifically advised by a doctor or pharmacist
  • Severe liver disease, unless a doctor advises otherwise

Drug / Food Interactions

  • Alcohol and other sedating medicines — increased drowsiness
  • Other antihistamine- or diphenhydramine-containing cold, flu, allergy, or sleep products — risk of double-dosing on the same active ingredient
  • MAOI antidepressants — may intensify anticholinergic and sedative effects

Quick Tips

  • Use for a cough with phlegm rather than a purely dry, tickly cough
  • Check other cold, flu, allergy, or sleep products you’re taking to avoid duplicating diphenhydramine
  • Take care if you need to drive or operate machinery, as it can cause drowsiness
  • Stay well hydrated to support the expectorant action
  • Use the measuring cup or spoon provided for an accurate dose
  • See a doctor if the cough lasts more than a week, or is accompanied by fever, chest pain, or breathlessness

  • Drug class: sedating antihistamine with expectorant cough syrup
