About Solvin Cough Tablet
Solvin Cough Tablet 10’s belongs to a class of medication called ‘cough and cold preparations’ primarily used to treat cough due to runny nose, sneezing, and throat irritation. Coughing (dry or productive) is a body’s way of clearing irritants (like allergens, mucus or smoke) from airways and preventing infection. There are two types of coughs, namely: Dry cough and chesty cough. A dry cough is tickly and doesn’t produce any vicious or thick mucus, while a chesty cough (wet cough) means mucous or sputum is produced to help clear your airways.
Solvin Cough Tablet 10’s is a combination of two drugs, namely: Chlorphenamine maleate and Dextromethorphan hydrobromide. Chlorphenamine maleate works by blocking the action of histamine, a substance responsible for causing allergic reactions. Dextromethorphan hydrobromide blocks the transmission of nerve signals from the cough centre in the brain to the muscles that produce cough. Together, SolvinCough Tablet 10’s helps to relieve cough, cold and allergic symptoms.
