How can I give Lemocold Drop to my child?
Take this medicine in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Check the label for directions before use. Measure it with a marked dropper and take it as directed. Lemocold Drop may be taken with or without food, but it is better to take it at a fixed time.
How Lemocold Drop works
Lemocold Drop contains four active medicines: Paracetamol, Phenylephrine, Chlorpheniramine, and Ambroxol. These work together and provide relief from the symptoms of common cold. Chlorpheniramine is an antiallergic that relieves allergy symptoms like runny nose, watery eyes, and sneezing. Paracetamol is an analgesic (pain reliever) and antipyretic (fever reducer). It blocks the release of certain chemical messengers in the brain that are responsible for pain and fever. Phenylephrine is a nasal decongestant that narrows the small blood vessels, providing relief from congestion or stuffiness in the nose. Ambroxol helps to loosen thick mucus, making it easier to cough out. A clear passage enables easy breathing in your child.
