How it works
Paracetamol works to stop the pain messages from getting through to the brain. It also acts in the brain to reduce fever . Chlorpheniramine maleate : This medication works by blocking a certain natural substance (histamine) that your body makes during an allergic reaction. By blocking another natural substance made by your body (acetylcholine), it helps dry up some body fluids to relieve symptoms such as watery eyes and runny nose. Pseudoephedrine is a sympathomimetic with a mixed mechanism of action, direct and indirect. It indirectly stimulates alpha-adrenergic receptors, causing the release of endogenous norepinephrine from the granularity of neurons, while it directly stimulates beta-adrenergic receptors.

Drug Interactions
The anticoagulant effect of warfarin and other coumarins may be enhanced by prolonged regular daily use of paracetamol-containing products with increased risk of bleeding; occasional doses have no significant effect. Concomitant administration of pseudoephedrine hydrochloride-containing products andMAOIs (or within two weeks of stopping of MAOI) may lead to hypertensive crisis. Theanticholinergic effects of chlorphenamine are intensified by MAOIs. Concomitant use of this medication with sympathomimetic agents (such asdecongestants, appetite suppressants and amphetamine-like psychostimulants) which interfere with the catabolism of sympathomimetic amines, may occasionally cause a rise in blood pressure (see Contraindications). Pseudoephedrine-containing products may antagonise the effect of certain classes ofantihypertensives (e.g. beta blockers, methyl-dopa, reserpine, debrisoquine, guanethidine).Concurrent use of chlorphenamine and hypnotics or anxiolytics may potentiatedrowsiness. Concurrent use of alcohol may have a similar effect.Chlorphenamine inhibits phenytoin metabolism and can lead to phenytoin toxicity.
