Synodox 2mg/500mg/10mg Tablet contains three ingredients: chlorpheniramine maleate (allergy medication), paracetamol (pain and fever medication), and phenylephrine (nasal decongestant). They relieve symptoms such as sore throat, headache, runny nose, muscular pain, and fever.

Phenylephrine, the first ingredient in Synodox 2mg/500mg/10mg Tablet, 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.

Paracetamol, also known as acetaminophen, is the second ingredient in this combination. It is an analgesic (treats pain) and an antipyretic (treats fever) agent. It works by targeting cyclooxygenase-mediated prostaglandin synthesis in the brain.

Synodox 2mg/500mg/10mg Tablet also contains chlorpheniramine maleate, an H1-receptor antagonist. It is an antihistamine that 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; it competitively inhibits the interaction of histamine with its H1 receptors, ridding patients of their allergic symptoms.
