Common cold, Allergies
Medicinal Benefits:
Konokid Syrup is a combination drug containing Chlorpheniramine maleate (antihistamine/antiallergic) and phenylephrine (decongestant), primarily used to treat common cold symptoms like runny nose, congestion, watery eyes, and sneezing. Chlorpheniramine maleate is an antihistamine that blocks histamine in the body, which is known to cause common cold symptoms. Phenylephrine helps shrink the blood vessels in the nasal passage, thereby reducing the stuffy nose. Together, both of them effectively reduce allergic and cold symptoms.
