How does Zincold Syrup 60 ml work?

Accepted Answer

Zincold Syrup 60 ml is composed of four medicines, namely Cetirizine, Paracetamol, Phenylephrine, and Zinc.

Paracetamol is an analgesic (relieves pain) and antipyretic (reduces fever) that works by inhibiting the production of certain chemical messengers (prostaglandins) in the brain responsible for pain and fever.
