N02BE51 • paracetamol + ascorbic acid + pheniramine maleate • Nervous system | Other analgesics and antipyretics | Anilides

Paracetamol, ascorbic acid, and pheniramine maleate are active ingredients used in combination to treat cold and flu symptoms such as fever, headaches, nasal congestion, sneezing, and runny nose. This combination is effective in relieving discomfort associated with respiratory infections and allergic symptoms.

Paracetamol is an analgesic and antipyretic that reduces pain and fever, being well-tolerated by most patients. Ascorbic acid (vitamin C) supports the immune system and may help reduce the duration of cold symptoms. Pheniramine maleate is an antihistamine that reduces allergic symptoms such as sneezing, nasal discharge, and itching, while also having a mild sedative effect.

Although this combination is effective, its use should be approached with caution. Pheniramine maleate may cause drowsiness, dizziness, or dry mouth, while paracetamol, if overused, can harm the liver. It is important for patients to avoid alcohol consumption during treatment, as it may enhance the sedative effects of pheniramine.

This combination is available over the counter, but patients should follow the recommended dosage and avoid long-term use. If symptoms persist for more than a few days or worsen, medical advice is necessary. Individuals with chronic conditions or those taking other medications should consult a doctor before use.
