Medicine Description michaelon
Michaelon Tablets is a medication that combines the effects of carbinoxamine, paracetamol, and pseudoephedrine to provide symptomatic relief from respiratory ailments. Carbinoxamine acts as an antihistamine, blocking H1 receptors to alleviate allergic symptoms such as sneezing and itching. Paracetamol functions as an analgesic and antipyretic, effectively reducing pain and lowering fever through central mechanisms in the brain. Pseudoephedrine, a decongestant, works by constricting blood vessels in the nasal passages, leading to decreased swelling and congestion. Together, these components address multiple symptoms associated with colds and flu.
