How to use 1St Cold Total Tablet

Follow the directions on the packaging or as prescribed by your healthcare provider. This medication is often taken orally, with or without meals, and should be followed by a glass of water. Adhere to the specified dosage and do not exceed the maximum amount. If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember, but skip it if it's almost time for the next dose. Do not double up on doses.

How Medicine Works

  • Levocetirizine: An antihistamine that blocks histamine receptors to reduce allergic symptoms such as sneezing, itching, and a runny nose.
  • Paracetamol: An analgesic and antipyretic that alleviates pain and reduces fever by decreasing prostaglandin production in the brain.
  • Phenylephrine: A decongestant that constricts blood vessels in the nasal passages, easing nasal congestion.
  • Ambroxol: An expectorant that helps break down mucus and phlegm in the airways, facilitating easier coughing.
  • Caffeine: A stimulant that counteracts drowsiness caused by other components and may enhance the effectiveness of pain relief.
