NOSIER TABLET

NOSIER TABLET belongs to a class of medications called ‘Cough, and cold preparations’ used to treat the common cold and allergic symptoms such as a runny nose, sneezing, itchy or watery eyes and blocked nose. The common cold is a nose and throat respiratory illness caused by ‘rhinoviruses’. Allergies are immune system reactions to foreign bodies or allergens such as certain foods, chemicals, pet dander or pollen.

NOSIER TABLET contains Cetirizine, Paracetamol, Phenylephrine, and Zinc. Cetirizine is an antihistamine (anti-allergic drug) that works by blocking the action of histamine, a substance responsible for causing allergy symptoms such as sneezing, running nose, watery eyes, itching, swelling or congestion. Paracetamol is an analgesic (relieves pain) and antipyretic (reduces fever). It works by inhibiting prostaglandin's production (chemical messengers) that are responsible for pain and fever. Phenylephrine is a decongestant that contracts and narrows the blood vessels of nasal passages and airways, reducing swelling and stuffy nose. Zinc is a nutritional supplement that helps to fight infection and provides quick relief from the symptoms.

NOSIER TABLET is available in the form of tablets and syrup. You should take this medicine as prescribed by your doctor. The common side-effects of NOSIER TABLET are nausea (feeling sick), vomiting (being sick), drowsiness, headache, tiredness, stomach upset, restlessness, dry mouth, flushing (reddening of the skin) and anorexia (loss of appetite). These side effects are usually mild and temporary. However, consult your doctor immediately if these side effects persist or worsen.

Common cold: The common cold is an infection caused by a virus, primarily rhinoviruses, which affects the nose and throat (upper respiratory tract). Children under six are at the greatest risk of catching a cold, but healthy adults can also catch 2-3 colds yearly. Most people recover from cold symptoms within a week or ten days. Symptoms may last longer in people who smoke or are exposed to allergens such as pollutants, dust, etc. Common cold symptoms include sneezing, sore throat, cough, congestion, mild body pains, low fever, mild headache, feeling unwell, and a stuffy or runny nose. In some cases, nasal discharge may thicken and turn yellow or green, but this does not indicate bacterial infection.

Allergies: These occur when foreign elements that cause allergies (allergens) attack and invade our bodies, causing histamines to be released. Swelling, inflammation, redness, itchiness, itchy/watery nose, throat, and eyes are caused by the chemical messenger 'histamines.' Allergies are commonly caused by chemicals, air pollution, pet danders, dust, pollen hairs, seasonal allergies such as hay fever, and other factors.
