Medicine Description one-two-three-123 4mg
One Two Three 123 is a medication that combines chlorpheniramine maleate, paracetamol, and pseudoephedrine, targeting multiple symptoms associated with colds and allergies. Chlorpheniramine maleate is an antihistamine that works by blocking histamine receptors, reducing symptoms like sneezing, runny nose, and itchy eyes. Pseudoephedrine acts as a decongestant by stimulating alpha-adrenergic receptors, which leads to vasoconstriction of the nasal blood vessels, thereby reducing nasal congestion. Paracetamol, known for its analgesic and antipyretic properties, alleviates pain and fever by inhibiting the synthesis of prostaglandins in the central nervous system. Together, these components provide comprehensive relief from symptoms by addressing inflammation, congestion, and discomfort.
