Maxtra P Syrup is used to relieve symptoms of the common cold and allergies in children, such as fever, body ache, a blocked or runny nose, sneezing and watery eyes. It is a combination medicine containing paracetamol (a fever reducer and pain reliever), phenylephrine hydrochloride (a nasal decongestant) and chlorpheniramine maleate (an antihistamine).
This medicine is also used to ease symptoms of allergic rhinitis, such as an itchy throat and runny nose. Measure each dose accurately with the device provided and give it with or without food, as prescribed by the doctor. Do not give more than prescribed, as too much paracetamol can harm the liver.
Make sure your child gets plenty of rest and drinks enough fluids. Saline nose drops, if your doctor recommends them, can help ease a blocked nose.
This medicine should not be used in children below 4 years of age. Before giving it, tell the doctor if your child has kidney, liver, heart or thyroid problems, and about any other medicines your child takes, especially other medicines containing paracetamol or cold remedies. It may cause drowsiness or, sometimes, restlessness. Seek medical help if your child has a high fever that does not settle, severe drowsiness or a fast heartbeat. Do not stop giving this medicine unless the doctor advises you to do so.
