Scormin Syrup

Scormin Syrup is a combination medicine used to treat common cold and flu symptoms. It contains chlorpheniramine maleate (which lowers allergic reactions) and phenylephrine (which reduces nasal congestion). Together, they relieve symptoms such as runny or stuffy nose, sneezing, watery eyes and itchy throat. Your doctor may prescribe this medication for the common cold, hay fever/rhinitis, seasonal allergies and flu.

Scormin Syrup should be taken as advised by your doctor. You may take this syrup before or after food. Your healthcare provider will adjust your doses depending on the severity of your symptoms. Take it for the exact duration as per your prescription, and do not self-medicate.

Side effects of Scormin Syrup include drowsiness, headache, nausea, loss of appetite, constipation, vomiting and dry mouth. They typically last for a short period and usually go away on their own. Contact your healthcare provider if the problems persist.

Scormin Syrup is contraindicated (unsafe) for people who are lactating and hypersensitive to chlorpheniramine maleate or phenylephrine. Always let your doctor know of any health conditions you might have, such as heart and liver disease. Generally, this combination drug is considered safe for most people.

Scormin Syrup is an allergy medicine used to treat the common cold, hay fever (rhinitis), seasonal allergies and flu. It alleviates symptoms associated with allergy and the common cold, such as runny nose, sneezing; itchy, red, watery eyes; itchy throat and increased sinus pressure.

The main ingredients of this medication are chlorpheniramine maleate and phenylephrine. Chlorpheniramine maleate is an antihistamine (a sedating H1-receptor antagonist) that relieves allergy symptoms like sneezing and watery eyes. Phenylephrine is a synthetic direct-acting adrenergic agonist, and it helps by constricting the blood vessels in your nose to reduce signs of nasal congestion, like a stuffy nose.

Scormin Syrup significantly reduces the allergic response and removes breathing difficulties (associated with nasal congestion), allowing people to carry on with their daily physical activities. Your healthcare provider will adjust your doses depending on the severity of your symptoms. Take it for the exact duration of your prescription, and do not self-medicate.

Scormin Syrup contains two ingredients: chlorpheniramine maleate (allergy medication) and phenylephrine (nasal decongestant). They both work by affecting specific receptors in the body responsible for triggering allergic reactions and influencing blood vessel contraction.

Phenylephrine, the first ingredient in Scormin Syrup, is a synthetic direct-acting adrenergic agonist. It acts on adrenergic receptors that affect the contraction of blood vessels. When we take this medicine, these receptors are activated, resulting in the shrinkage of dilated/swollen blood vessels. This effect inside the sinus and nasal cavity reduces nasal congestion and relieves symptoms like a stuffy nose.

Scormin Syrup also contains chlorpheniramine maleate, an H1-receptor antagonist. It is an antihistamine which works against chemicals called histamines. This chemical is responsible for most of the allergic responses, such as coughing, sneezing, vomiting and runny nose, which are means of getting rid of allergens from the body.

People with severe allergies experience these symptoms due to the exaggerated function of these histamines. The histamines work by binding with the H1 receptors in our body. That is why chlorpheniramine maleate is prescribed for people with the cold and flu because it competitively inhibits the interaction of histamine with its H1 receptors - ridding patients of their allergic symptoms.
