How Does It Work?
Levodropropizine is a cough suppressant that reduces the activity of the cough centre in the brain, helping to control dry cough. Chlorpheniramine Maleate is an antihistamine that blocks the effects of histamine, thereby reducing allergy symptoms such as sneezing, runny nose, and throat irritation that often accompany dry cough.
