PRODUCT DESCRIPTION:
Syrup : A clear, green syrup with banana flavour.
Tablet : Round, yellow, convex, plain tablet with debossed on one

PHARMACODYNAMICS:
Chlorpheniramine Maleate is an antihistamine that possesses
anticholinergic and sedative
effects. It acts by occupying the 'receptive sites' on the effector
cells to the exclusion of the
agonist without initiating a response.
Chlorpheniramine is a H1 receptor antagonist. It antagonizes many of
the pharmacologic
actions of histamine. It prevents released histamine from dilating
capillaries and causing
edema of the respiratory mucosa.
PHARMACOKINETICS:
Chlorpheniramine is well absorbed and has a duration of action 4 to 6
hours. Its half-life in
serum is 12 to 16 hours. Degradation products of chlorpheniramine
metabolic transformation by
the liver are almost completely excreted in 24 hours.
INDICATION:
It is indicated in allergic conditions responsive to antihistamines.
