Procold Tablets X4 is a multi-action medicine formulated to provide fast relief from the symptoms of the common cold, influenza, and allergies. Manufactured by Orange Kalbe Limited in Nigeria, these tablets are a trusted choice for many Nigerians dealing with fever, headaches, and nasal congestion.
What are Procold Tablets used for?
Procold is effective for treating several symptoms at once, including:
- Fever and body aches
- Headaches
- Runny nose and sneezing
- Nasal congestion (blocked nose)
- Itchy or watery eyes caused by allergies
How Procold Works
Each tablet contains a combination of three active ingredients:
- Paracetamol (500mg): Works as an analgesic to relieve pain and an antipyretic to reduce fever.
- Phenylephrine HCl (10mg): A decongestant that helps shrink swollen nasal passages, making it easier to breathe.
- Chlorpheniramine Maleate (2mg): An antihistamine that reduces symptoms like sneezing and runny nose.
Dosage and Administration
For adults, the standard dosage is typically 1 tablet taken 3 to 4 times daily. Always consult a professional before adjusting your dosage. For personalized advice, you can speak with a GoMed pharmacist.
Possible Side Effects
Like many cold medicines containing antihistamines, Procold may cause drowsiness or sleepiness. It is best to avoid driving or operating heavy machinery after taking this medication until you know how it affects you.
