🔬 How This Medicine Works (Pharmacology)
Pharmacokinetics
How It Works
This medicine combines an antihistamine and a decongestant. The antihistamine blocks H1 receptors, preventing histamine from causing sneezing, itching, and increased mucus production. The decongestant stimulates alpha-adrenergic receptors, causing vasoconstriction in the nasal mucosa, which reduces swelling and congestion.
