Kaffi‑Mint Syrup is a combination oral medication formulated to relieve symptoms associated with dry cough, common cold, nasal congestion, runny nose, sneezing, itchy or watery eyes, and throat irritation.
💊 Active Ingredients (per 5 ml)
Dextromethorphan Hydrobromide (10 mg): A centrally acting cough suppressant that calms the dry cough reflex
Chlorpheniramine Maleate (2 mg): A first-generation antihistamine that alleviates allergy symptoms like sneezing, runny nose, and watery eyes
Phenylephrine Hydrochloride (5 mg): A decongestant that narrows blood vessels in nasal passages to ease congestion
⚙️ How It Works
