How Levocetirizine + Paracetamol/acetaminophen + Pseudoephedrine works

  • Levocetirizine is an antihistamine, which works by blocking the H1 receptors. This prevents histamine, a natural substance in the body, from causing allergic symptoms such as runny nose, sneezing, itching, and watery eyes.

  • Paracetamol (also known as Acetaminophen) is an analgesic and antipyretic. It provides relief from pain and reduces fever by inhibiting the production of prostaglandins in the central nervous system. Prostaglandins are chemicals that cause pain and fever.

  • Pseudoephedrine is a decongestant. It reduces nasal congestion by causing vasoconstriction or narrowing of blood vessels in the nasal passages. This action leads to a reduction of swelling in the nasal mucous membranes.
