Medicine Description rhino-c 400mg
Rhino-C 400mg Tablets is a medication that combines chlorpheniramine, paracetamol, and phenylephrine to provide relief from symptoms associated with colds and allergies. Chlorpheniramine is an antihistamine that works by blocking histamine receptors, thereby reducing symptoms such as sneezing, itching, and runny nose. Paracetamol, an analgesic, alleviates pain and reduces fever by inhibiting the synthesis of prostaglandins in the brain. Phenylephrine is a decongestant that constricts blood vessels in the nasal passages, leading to decreased swelling and congestion. Together, these components work synergistically to alleviate multiple symptoms of respiratory tract infections.
