Introduction
Chlorphenamine 2mg/5ml Oral Solution is a sugar-free, banana-flavoured antihistamine used to relieve symptoms caused by allergies in both children and adults. Each 5ml contains 2mg of chlorphenamine maleate, a first-generation antihistamine known for its fast-acting and sedating effects.
This liquid formulation is ideal for children over 1 year and adults who prefer not to swallow tablets. The 150ml bottle includes a dosing spoon for precise administration and is suitable for conditions like hayfever, allergic rhinitis, hives, insect bites, and mild food allergies.
How It Works
Chlorphenamine works by blocking histamine, a chemical released during allergic reactions. By stopping histamine’s effects, it helps reduce symptoms such as sneezing, itchy eyes, runny nose, rashes, and swelling. As a sedating antihistamine, it can also aid with rest and sleep during flare-ups.
This medication provides multi-symptom relief and is particularly helpful at night when allergies disrupt sleep or cause skin irritation.
Why Choose Chlorphenamine 2mg/5ml Oral Solution
Chlorphenamine 2mg/5ml Oral Solution is trusted by parents and healthcare professionals alike. It is effective for a wide range of allergic reactions and is especially useful for younger children who may reject tablets. Its pleasant banana flavour makes it easier to administer and the sugar-free formula is gentle on teeth.
Because it offers sedating properties, it is ideal for evening doses when symptoms such as itchy skin or nasal congestion disturb sleep. This makes it a versatile addition to any family medicine cabinet during allergy season or for emergency relief.
Important Note
Do not exceed the recommended dose. Use only under adult supervision in children. Not suitable for infants under 12 months. If symptoms persist or worsen, consult your GP or pharmacist. Store below 25°C in a cool, dry place. Keep out of reach of children.
