Product Details
- Name: Piriton Expectorant Linctus (Chlorpheniramine Maleate, Ammonium Chloride, and sometimes Sodium Citrate/Menthol)
- How It Works: It uses a dual-action formula. Chlorpheniramine is an antihistamine that dries up a runny nose and reduces sneezing. Ammonium Chloride acts as an expectorant, increasing the fluid in the airways to help thin out thick mucus, making it easier for the child to cough it up and clear their chest.
- Form: Oral Syrup / Linctus.
- Warning:
- Drowsiness: This medication often causes significant sleepiness; ensure the child is supervised and avoid activities requiring alertness.
- Age Restriction: Not recommended for children under 2 years of age due to the risk of serious side effects.
- Medical Conditions: Consult a doctor before use if the child has asthma, chronic bronchitis, or liver issues.
- Overdose: Do not use with any other cough or cold medicines, especially those containing antihistamines, to avoid accidental overdose.
- Sugar Content: Many linctus formulations contain sugar; use with caution in diabetic children and ensure good dental hygiene.
