🔬 How This Medicine Works (Pharmacology)

Pharmacokinetics

AbsorptionChlorpheniramine maleate is well absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract after oral administration. Dextromethorphan hydrobromide is also rapidly absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract. The syrup formulation allows for rapid absorption, with peak plasma concentrations typically reached within 2 to 3 hours for chlorpheniramine and 2 to 3 hours for dextromethorphan.

DistributionChlorpheniramine is widely distributed throughout the body, including the central nervous system, due to its lipophilic nature. Dextromethorphan is also distributed to tissues, including the brain, where it exerts its antitussive effect. Both drugs cross the blood-brain barrier.

Protein BindingChlorpheniramine is approximately 70% bound to plasma proteins. Dextromethorphan is about 60-70% bound to plasma proteins. Not established from the available information for specific binding percentages of the combination.

MetabolismChlorpheniramine is metabolized in the liver primarily by CYP2D6 and to a lesser extent by CYP3A4. Dextromethorphan is extensively metabolized in the liver by CYP2D6 to dextrorphan, its active metabolite, and by CYP3A4 to a lesser extent.

Half-LifeThe elimination half-life of chlorpheniramine is approximately 12 to 43 hours in adults, with a longer half-life in children and the elderly. The elimination half-life of dextromethorphan is approximately 2 to 4 hours in extensive metabolizers and longer in poor metabolizers.

ExcretionChlorpheniramine and its metabolites are primarily excreted in the urine. Dextromethorphan and its metabolites are also excreted mainly in the urine, with a small amount in feces.

BioavailabilityThe oral bioavailability of chlorpheniramine is approximately 25% to 50% due to first-pass metabolism. The oral bioavailability of dextromethorphan is approximately 10% to 20% in extensive metabolizers due to extensive first-pass metabolism, but higher in poor metabolizers.

Onset of ActionThe onset of action for chlorpheniramine is typically within 30 to 60 minutes after oral administration. Dextromethorphan's antitussive effect begins within 15 to 30 minutes after oral administration.

Peak Plasma TimePeak plasma concentrations for chlorpheniramine are reached in about 2 to 3 hours. For dextromethorphan, peak plasma levels are reached in about 2 to 3 hours.

Duration of ActionThe antihistaminic effect of chlorpheniramine lasts approximately 4 to 6 hours, but may be longer. The antitussive effect of dextromethorphan lasts approximately 4 to 6 hours.

How It Works

This medicine combines two active ingredients with distinct mechanisms. Chlorpheniramine maleate is a first-generation antihistamine that competitively blocks histamine H1 receptors on effector cells, thereby reducing allergic symptoms such as sneezing, runny nose, and itching. Dextromethorphan hydrobromide is a centrally acting cough suppressant that acts on the cough center in the medulla oblongata to raise the threshold for coughing. It is a dextro-isomer of levorphanol but lacks analgesic and addictive properties at therapeutic doses.

Mechanism Steps

1

Histamine H1 receptor blockade: Chlorpheniramine binds to and blocks histamine H1 receptors on blood vessels, sensory nerve endings, and smooth muscle, preventing histamine-mediated allergic responses.

2

Anticholinergic effects: Chlorpheniramine also exhibits anticholinergic properties, which contribute to drying of respiratory secretions and reduction of runny nose.

3

Central cough suppression: Dextromethorphan acts on the cough center in the medulla to suppress the cough reflex, reducing the frequency and intensity of non-productive cough.

4

Combined symptomatic relief: The combination addresses both allergic symptoms and cough, providing comprehensive relief for cold and allergy-related respiratory symptoms.

💡 How to Take tekof syrup

Strength: Each 5 ml of syrup contains 4 mg of chlorpheniramine maleate and 10 mg of dextromethorphan hydrobromide.

1Shake the bottle well before each use.

2Use a proper measuring device (dosing cup or spoon) to measure the dose accurately.

3Take the medicine orally, with or without food.

4If stomach upset occurs, take with food or milk.

5Do not exceed the recommended dose.

6Follow your doctor's instructions carefully.

Dosage Information

Adult Dosage	The usual adult dose of this medicine is 5 ml to 10 ml (one to two teaspoons) every 4 to 6 hours as needed for cough and allergy symptoms, not to exceed 6 doses in 24 hours. However, the dose must be individualized by a qualified clinician based on indication, age, weight, renal and hepatic function, and response to therapy. Do not exceed the recommended dose. Follow your doctor's instructions carefully.
Pediatric Dosage	Pediatric dosing is not established from available information. Consult a pediatrician. This medicine is not recommended for children under 2 years of age due to the risk of serious respiratory depression. For children 2 years and older, the dose should be determined by a pediatrician based on the child's weight and condition.
Elderly Dosage	Elderly patients (65 years and older) are more sensitive to the effects of chlorpheniramine and dextromethorphan, particularly drowsiness, dizziness, and anticholinergic effects. Use with caution and consider a lower initial dose. Dose must be individualized by a qualified clinician.
Renal Impairment	In patients with renal impairment, the half-life of chlorpheniramine and dextromethorphan may be prolonged. Dose adjustment may be necessary. Use with caution and under medical supervision. Dose must be individualized by a qualified clinician based on renal function.
Hepatic Impairment	In patients with hepatic impairment, the metabolism of chlorpheniramine and dextromethorphan may be reduced, leading to increased plasma concentrations and risk of side effects. Use with caution and consider dose reduction. Dose must be individualized by a qualified clinician based on hepatic function.
Maximum Daily Dose	The maximum daily dose for adults is 60 ml (12 teaspoons) in 24 hours, providing 48 mg of chlorpheniramine maleate and 120 mg of dextromethorphan hydrobromide. Do not exceed this dose. For children, the maximum daily dose should be determined by a pediatrician.
