Paracetamol, Cetirizine, Menthol, Phenylephrine

Paracetamol, Cetirizine, Menthol, and Phenylephrine is a combination medication used to relieve symptoms associated with the common cold and allergies. Paracetamol is a pain reliever and fever reducer that works by inhibiting the production of prostaglandins, which are chemicals in the body that cause inflammation, pain, and fever. Cetirizine is an antihistamine that blocks the effects of histamine, a substance released during an allergic reaction, thereby reducing symptoms such as sneezing, itching, and runny nose. Menthol provides a cooling sensation and can help soothe irritated nasal passages. Phenylephrine is a decongestant that narrows blood vessels in the nasal passages, reducing congestion and making it easier to breathe. This medication is typically used for temporary relief of symptoms and should not be used for more than 7 consecutive days unless directed by a healthcare professional.
