About CHERICOF COUGH SYRUP 100 ML

  • Chericof Cough Syrup is a 100 ml oral liquid combining chlorpheniramine, dextromethorphan and phenylephrine. The cached listing identifies Sun Pharmaceutical Industries as the manufacturer and marks the product discontinued. Current Sun catalogue listings include Chericof formulations at these strengths, but the precise marketed status of this cached pack could not be confirmed. The ingredients have antihistamine, cough suppressant and decongestant actions. This combination may relieve selected short-term dry cough and cold symptoms when a clinician or pharmacist determines it is appropriate. It does not treat the underlying cause of a cough or shorten a viral illness. Persistent cough, breathing difficulty, chest pain, high fever, blood in sputum or symptoms in a person with significant chronic disease need clinical assessment. Chlorpheniramine may cause drowsiness and impair alertness. Phenylephrine can affect blood pressure or heart rate. Dextromethorphan can interact with medicines that affect serotonin and with monoamine oxidase inhibitors. Multiple-ingredient cough and cold products can cause accidental duplication. The exact Sun package leaflet for this discontinued 100 ml pack was not located, so age restrictions, full interactions and product-specific directions are not stated. The page’s claims for wide-ranging allergic and respiratory conditions are not adopted. Use only a current, intact pack with professional guidance, and do not use an expired or discontinued product supplied outside a legitimate pharmacy channel.

Uses of CHERICOF COUGH SYRUP 100 ML

  • Short-term relief of dry cough and selected cold symptoms when professionally assessed

How CHERICOF COUGH SYRUP 100 ML Works

  • Chlorpheniramine blocks histamine H1 receptors and can reduce sneezing and runny nose. Dextromethorphan acts centrally to suppress the cough reflex. Phenylephrine stimulates alpha-adrenergic receptors and is intended to reduce nasal congestion. Symptom relief does not identify or treat the underlying illness. The exact effect of the combination varies, and oral phenylephrine benefit may be limited. Persistent congestion or cough should not be masked without evaluating the cause.

Side Effects of CHERICOF COUGH SYRUP 100 MLArrow

Drowsiness, dizziness, dry mouth, nausea and blurred vision may occur. Phenylephrine can cause palpitations or raise blood pressure. Dextromethorphan may cause dizziness or nausea. Serious agitation, confusion, fast or irregular heartbeat, severe drowsiness, breathing difficulty or allergic swelling requires urgent care.

  • Drowsiness
  • Dizziness
  • Dry mouth
  • Nausea
  • Blurred vision
  • Palpitations
  • Raised blood pressure
  • Allergic reaction

default alt

Other Medical Conditions and Drug Interactions

Use under medical supervision

Chericof syrup should be used with particular caution in patients with high blood pressure, coronary artery disease, arrhythmias, hyperthyroidism, glaucoma, urinary retention, or prostate enlargement, as phenylephrine and chlorpheniramine may worsen these conditions.

Dosage of CHERICOF COUGH SYRUP 100 MLArrow

  • No numerical regimen is provided. The exact package directions for this discontinued pack were not verified. Use only according to a current label and professional advice. Do not take extra liquid after a missed dose or combine multiple products with overlapping ingredients. Ask a pharmacist to confirm age suitability and the measuring device before use.

What if I miss my dose of CHERICOF COUGH SYRUP 100 ML?Arrow

  • If you miss a dose of Chericof Cough Syrup, take it as soon as you remember. However, if it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and continue with your regular dosing schedule. Do not double the dose to catch up.

How to store CHERICOF COUGH SYRUP 100 ML?Arrow

  • The exact pack storage instruction was not verified. Follow the bottle label, keep tightly closed in the original carton if supplied, protect from heat, and store away from children. Do not use an expired, damaged or previously opened product if its safe-use period is unclear.

Benefits of CHERICOF COUGH SYRUP 100 MLArrow

  • The ingredients address different symptoms: chlorpheniramine blocks histamine effects, dextromethorphan suppresses the cough reflex, and phenylephrine is a nasal decongestant. This may provide temporary symptom relief for selected presentations. It does not treat infection, asthma, pneumonia or the cause of persistent cough. Evidence and product directions for this exact discontinued pack were not found. A clinician or pharmacist can help determine whether a combination product is suitable and avoid duplication with other cough or cold medicines.

How to use CHERICOF COUGH SYRUP 100 MLArrow

  • Use only if a pharmacist or clinician confirms that the current pack is appropriate and follow its label. Shake if the supplied label instructs. Measure liquid with an appropriate marked device, not a household spoon. No numerical schedule is provided. Do not combine with another product containing an antihistamine, dextromethorphan or decongestant without professional review. Avoid driving or tasks requiring alertness if drowsy. Seek assessment for persistent or severe symptoms.

Quick Tips for CHERICOF COUGH SYRUP 100 MLArrow

  • Check the product expiry and packaging before use; the cached listing marks it discontinued.
  • Avoid driving if drowsy or dizzy.
  • Check other cold products for duplicate ingredients.
  • Ask a pharmacist about antidepressants and other regular medicines.
  • Do not use an old or damaged bottle.
  • Seek care for breathing difficulty, chest pain, blood in sputum or persistent cough.

Food Interactions with CHERICOF COUGH SYRUP 100 MLArrow

  • No exact product-specific food instructions were verified. Alcohol and other sedating substances can increase drowsiness and impaired coordination with chlorpheniramine. Ask a pharmacist about food, alcohol and other medicines based on the actual pack and medication list.
