Benefits of Cozymin AF Syrup
Sneezing and runny nose due to allergies
Cozymin AF Syrup is used to treat an itchy, stuffy or runny nose, sneezing, or other
symptoms caused by seasonal hay fever (allergic rhinitis). It works by
reducing certain substances in the body called histamines that are responsible
for the allergic symptoms. It also reduces swelling inside the nose and thus
decreases symptoms such as stuffy nose. This helps in easy breathing and makes
you feel better. Drink plenty of liquids, including chicken soup to feel
better.

How Cozymin AF Syrup works
Cozymin AF Syrup is a combination of two medicines: Cetirizine and Pseudoephedrine, which relieves sneezing and runny nose caused due to allergies. Cetirizine is an antiallergic which blocks the action of a chemical messenger (histamine) responsible for runny nose, watery eyes and sneezing. Pseudoephedrine is a decongestant which narrows the small blood vessels providing temporary relief from congestion or stuffiness in the nose.
