About Kuff D Syrup 100ml

Kuff D Syrup 100ml contains anti-tussive (relieve cough) medication primarily used to treat dry cough. A cough is a reflex action that helps to clear any foreign irritant or mucus in the throat. Mostly cough lasts for a short time (two to three weeks), so it is acute. But sometimes, if it is persistent for more than eight weeks, it can lead to chronic cough. Dry cough refers to a cough where there is no mucus or secretion along with cough.

Kuff D Syrup 100ml is a combination drug that contains, Chlorpheniramine (anti-histamine), Dextromethorphan (cough suppressant), Phenylpropanolamine (decongestant), and Menthol (coolant), primarily used to treat dry cough. Chlorpheniramine works by blocking the action of histamine, a substance responsible for causing allergic reactions. Dextromethorphan works by blocking the cough receptor present in the brain, which is known to cause cough. Phenylpropanolamine narrows the small blood vessels, relieving congestion or stuffiness in the nose. Menthol produces a cooling sensation and relieves throat irritation.

Kuff D Syrup 100ml should be taken as prescribed by the doctor.
