How T MINIC PLUS SYRUP Works

T MINIC PLUS SYRUP relieves upper respiratory symptoms where Chlorpheniramine
binds to the histamine H1 receptor and blocks its action, resulting in temporary
relief of the negative symptoms (runny nose, sneezing, watery and itchy eyes)
brought on by histamine. Paracetamol relieves pain by elevation of the pain
threshold and reduces fever by acting on the on the heat-regulating centre in
your brain. Phenylephrine constricts blood vessels and reduces the blood flow to
certain areas, thus decreasing swelling and allowing nasal and respiratory
passages to open up.
