This medication combines multiple ingredients to alleviate symptoms associated with the common cold, flu, allergies, hay fever, or respiratory conditions like sinusitis and bronchitis. Dextromethorphan acts as a cough suppressant by targeting the brain's cough center to reduce the urge to cough. Decongestants help ease nasal congestion, while antihistamines address symptoms such as watery and itchy eyes, runny nose, sneezing, and an itchy throat.
