Clinical particulars 4.1 Therapeutic indications Chlorphenamine is indicated in adults, and children (aged 1 month to 18 years) for: • acute urticaria • control of allergic reactions to insect bites and stings • angioneurotic oedema • drug and serum reactions • desensitisation reactions • hayfever • vasomotor rhinitis • severe pruritus of non-specific origin 4.2 Posology and method of administration Posology _Adults_ The usual dose of chlorphenamine injection for adults is 10 mg to 20 mg, but not more than 40 mg should be given within a 24-hour period. When a rapid effect is desired, as in anaphylactic reactions, the intravenous route is recommended in addition to emergency therapy with adrenaline (epinephrine), corticosteroids, oxygen and supportive therapy as required. In this case chlorphenamine injection should be injected slowly over a period of one minute, using the smallest adequate syringe. Any drowsiness, giddiness or hypotension which may follow is usually transitory. In the event of a blood transfusion reaction, a dose of 10 mg to 20 mg of chlorphenamine injection should be given by the subcutaneous route. This can be repeated to a total of 40 mg within a 24-hour period, or oral forms of chlorphenamine may be given until the symptoms subside. Chlorphenamine injection may be helpful in the prevention of delayed reactions to penicillin and other drugs when given separately by intramuscular injection immediately prior to administration সম্পূর্ণ নথি পড়ুন
