Managing the Side Effects:

Most of the common side effects are mild and may subside on their own or after discontinuation of New Glycodin Syrup. Some of these side effects can be managed by:

Drowsiness: Take the medication when you are going to bed to avoid feeling drowsy during the day.
Dizziness: Avoid getting up from a seated or rested position too quickly to limit episodes of dizziness.
Dry mouth, nose and throat: Try to stay hydrated throughout the day.
Constipation: Ensure you add sufficient fibre to your diet.

New Glycodin Syrup contains two active ingredients:

Chlorpheniramine Maleate (4 mg): This is an antihistamine that competes with histamine at H1-receptor sites in various parts of your body, particularly the respiratory tract. By doing this, it blocks the effects of histamine which is responsible for common allergy symptoms such as sneezing and a runny nose.
Dextromethorphan Hydrobromide (10 mg): This is a cough suppressant which centrally acts to elevate your threshold for a cough reflex. It inhibits the cough centre in your brain which reduces the sensitivity of cough receptors thereby decreasing your urge to cough.

Pregnancy

Caution is advised while taking New Glycodin Syrup if you are pregnant. It is best to consult your doctor before taking this medicine.

Breastfeeding

If you are breastfeeding, make sure to discuss this with your doctor before starting New Glycodin Syrup.

Alcohol

While on New Glycodin Syrup, it is advised to limit alcohol consumption as it could enhance the drowsiness effect of the medicine.

Liver

If you have an underlying liver condition, discuss it with your doctor before starting New Glycodin Syrup. This medicine may affect liver function.

Kidney

Caution is advised before using New Glycodin Syrup if you have a history of any kidney conditions. It is a good idea to consult your doctor before taking this medicine.

Using Machines & Driving

New Glycodin Syrup may cause drowsiness. It's advisable not to drive or operate heavy machinery until you know how the medicine affects you.

Allergy

If you're allergic to any of the ingredients in New Glycodin Syrup, particularly chlorpheniramine maleate or dextromethorphan, avoid using this medicine.

Children

Caution is advised while giving New Glycodin Syrup to children under 6 years of age. Always consult your doctor before giving any medicine to a child.

Older Patients

Older patients should take New Glycodin Syrup under medical supervision as they may be more susceptible to its side effects. Caution is advised if patients are above 70 years of age. Your doctor will guide you based on your health status.

Drug-Drug Interactions

New Glycodin Syrup interacts with the following medicines:

Antidepressants: particularly Monoamine Oxidase Inhibitors (MAOIs) like phenelzine and tranylcypromine, may interact with New Glycodin Syrup. This interaction could lead to increased risk of side effects such as drowsiness and low blood pressure.
Sedatives: medicines such as lorazepam and diazepam that have a sedative effect could potentially enhance the drowsiness caused by New Glycodin Syrup.

Drug-Food Interactions

New Glycodin Syrup may interact with certain foods:

Grapefruit: This fruit can increase the level of chlorpheniramine in your body, potentially leading to enhanced side effects.

Drug-Disease Interactions

New Glycodin Syrup interacts with the following diseases:

Glaucoma: The presence of chlorpheniramine in New Glycodin Syrup can cause an increase in intraocular pressure, worsening glaucoma.
Liver Disease: The liver metabolises both dextromethorphan and chlorpheniramine. If you have liver disease, your body's ability to process these substances might be compromised, potentially leading to increased side effects.
Prostate Enlargement: Chlorpheniramine can lead to difficulty in urination for those with an enlarged prostate.

Daily Dose

The daily dose of New Glycodin Syrup should be taken as directed by your doctor. This could vary depending on the severity of your symptoms and how you respond to the medicine.

The bottle should be tightly closed to keep out light and moisture.
Always store medicines out of the reach and sight of children.
Make sure you use New Glycodin Syrup before the expiry date printed on the packaging.

If you're taking New Glycodin Syrup for coughing and sneezing caused by allergies, try to avoid allergens like dust mites, pollen or certain foods that trigger your symptoms.
