Rexcof DX Syrup 60 ml

Rexcof DX Syrup 60 ml belongs to a class of medication called ‘cough and cold preparations’ primarily used to treat dry cough. Coughing (dry or productive) is a body’s way of clearing irritants (like allergens, mucus or smoke) from airways and preventing infection.

There are two types of coughs, namely: Dry cough and chesty cough. A dry cough is tickly and doesn’t produce any vicious or thick mucus, while a chesty cough (wet cough) means mucous or sputum is produced to help clear the airways.

Rexcof is a combination of two drugs, namely: Chlorphenamine maleate (antihistamine) and Dextromethorphan (cough suppressant). Chlorphenamine maleate belongs to the class of antihistamines or anti-allergic that works by blocking the action of histamine, a substance responsible for causing allergic reactions.

 It helps to provide relief from symptoms of allergy such as sneezing, runny nose, watery eyes, itching, swelling, and congestion or stiffness.

On the other hand, Dextromethorphan belongs to the class of cough suppressants that works by blocking the transmission of nerve signals from the cough centre in the brain to the muscles that produce cough. Together, Rexco helps relieve cough, cold and allergic symptoms.
