Formula Information

A small arrow pointing down

Bayview Pharmacy is pleased to present a specially compounded oral suspension formulation that combines Chlorpheniramine Maleate 0.8 mg/ml, Pseudoephedrine HCl 6 mg/ml, and Dextromethorphan HBr 6 mg/ml. This unique formulation is designed to address a range of conditions such as allergies, colds, and coughs. The active ingredients in this formulation each play a crucial role in alleviating symptoms associated with these conditions.

Chlorpheniramine Maleate is an antihistamine that effectively reduces allergy symptoms like sneezing, itching, and watery eyes. It works by blocking the action of histamine, a substance in the body that causes allergic symptoms. Pseudoephedrine HCl, a decongestant, aids in reducing nasal congestion and sinus pressure by shrinking blood vessels in the nasal passages. Dextromethorphan HBr, an antitussive, helps to suppress coughing by acting on the signals in the brain that trigger the cough reflex.

This oral suspension formulation is a liquid dosage form in which these ingredients are uniformly dispersed throughout a liquid medium. This ensures a homogeneous mixture for administration, providing consistent dosing and effective relief from symptoms. This formulation is safe and effective for use by both adults and children, offering a versatile solution for managing these common conditions.

If you have any queries about this formulation or how it can assist in treating your condition, please do not hesitate to contact us at Bayview Pharmacy. Our team is committed to providing comprehensive information and support to help you manage your health effectively.
