Alex Junior Syrup 60 ml

Product introduction
aLEX Junior Syrup is a combination of two medicines used in the treatment of dry cough. It provides temporary relief from cough caused by throat irritation and also helps reduce symptoms such as sneezing and runny nose. It works by reducing the activity of the cough center in the brain and blocking the effects of histamine.

aLEX Junior Syrup can be taken with or without food in the dose and duration advised by your doctor. The dose will depend on the child’s condition and response to the medicine. Continue using this medicine for as long as prescribed. Stopping treatment too early may cause symptoms to return or worsen. Inform your doctor about all other medicines your child is taking, as some may interact with this syrup.

The most common side effects include sedation, sleepiness, and dizziness. These are usually mild and temporary. Contact your doctor if any side effect worries you. Since this medicine may cause dizziness or sleepiness, avoid activities that require alertness until its effects are known. Alcohol should be avoided, as it may worsen dizziness.

Ensure the child consumes plenty of fluids while taking this medicine. Inform your doctor if your child has any liver disease so the dose can be adjusted. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult their doctor before using this medicine.
