Effective Relief for Cough, Cold, and Catarrh
Emzolyn 4-Way Syrup 100ml is a trusted multi-action formula from Emzor Pharmaceuticals, specifically designed to provide sharp relief from the discomfort of dry coughs and common cold symptoms. This orange-colored syrup is a staple in Nigerian households for managing upper respiratory tract symptoms.
How Emzolyn 4-Way Works
The "4-way" action targets four key symptoms to help you recover quickly:
- Cough Suppressant: Dextromethorphan HBr helps quieten persistent, dry, and irritating coughs.
- Nasal Decongestant: Phenylephrine HCl reduces swelling in the nasal passages, clearing blocked noses and catarrh.
- Antihistamine: Chlorpheniramine Maleate stops sneezing, runny nose, and watery eyes associated with allergies or the common cold.
- Soothing Effect: Formulated to soothe throat irritation for fast comfort.
Emzolyn 4-Way vs. Emzolyn Expectorant
It is important to choose the right syrup for your symptoms. Emzolyn 4-Way is best for dry coughs and congestion. If you have a "wet" or productive cough with phlegm, Emzolyn Expectorant (which contains different active ingredients like Ammonium Chloride) may be more suitable. If you are unsure, you can contact a GoMed pharmacist for guidance.
Dosage and Administration
For best results, follow these standard dosage guidelines or as directed by your healthcare provider:
- Adults: 10ml every 4 to 6 hours (Maximum 40ml in 24 hours).
- Children (6–12 years): 5ml every 4 to 6 hours.
- Children (2–6 years): 2.5ml every 4 to 6 hours.
- Children under 2 years: Consult a doctor or GoMed pharmacist before use.
