Care Decongestant Oral Liquid is an oral solution for the relief of nose, sinus and upper chest congestion. It contains pseudoephedrine hydrochloride 30mg, which works to restrict blood vessels, reduces swelling and production of mucous and so relieves congestion.
Care Decongestant Oral Liquid can be used to relieve nasal and sinus congestion, as well as chest congestion associated with a cold or flu. It can also help to reduce fever in adults and children over 12 years of age.
It is available in an easy-to-use 100ml bottle, which is suitable for those who don’t like taking tablets. The liquid formulation also allows for accurate dosing and easier absorption than with tablets.
For best results, Care Decongestant Oral Liquid should be taken every four hours as needed. It is important not to exceed the maximum daily dose of 120mg in any 24-hour period. Care Decongestant Oral Liquid is suitable for adults and children over 12
