EXOFEX-D JUNIOR is
an oral cough-and-cold combination syrup containing Dextromethorphan,
Chlorpheniramine Maleate (CPM) and Phenylephrine as the declared ingredient

cough-and-cold conditions where this fixed-dose combination is approved and
clinically appropriate. Pediatric use must follow the current approved age
range, exact concentration per measured volume and professional guidance.
Each labelled dose contains:
·
Dextromethorphan - 10 mg

Uses of EXOFEX-D JUNIOR
EXOFEX-D JUNIOR may
be prescribed for short-term symptomatic relief of selected cough-and-cold
symptoms where this combination is approved and age-appropriate.
·
Dextromethorphan helps suppress troublesome
dry or non-productive cough
·
CPM helps reduce histamine-mediated symptoms
such as sneezing and runny nose
·
Phenylephrine provides nasal-decongestant
action by constricting blood vessels in the nasal mucosa
·
The combined formulation may provide
multi-symptom relief when specifically indicated by a healthcare professional
How
EXOFEX-D JUNIOR Works
EXOFEX-D JUNIOR combines three pharmacological actions:
Dextromethorphan: Acts centrally to suppress the cough
reflex and is used for selected non-productive cough symptoms.
Chlorpheniramine Maleate (CPM): Blocks H1 histamine
receptors, helping reduce sneezing, runny nose and other allergy-related
symptoms; it may cause drowsiness and anticholinergic effects.
The combination provides symptomatic relief only and does not treat
every underlying cause of cough, cold or respiratory symptoms.
Use
should be limited to the approved indication, age group, dose and duration
recommended by the treating healthcare professional.
Dosage
and Direction for Use
Use EXOFEX-D JUNIOR exactly according to the approved product
label or prescriber's directions. The supplied brief does not state the
measured volume to which the listed strengths apply, so verify the exact
concentration before calculating or administering a dose.
Measure
each dose accurately with a calibrated oral syringe, cup or other appropriate
measuring device. Do not use an ordinary household spoon.
Pediatric cough-and-cold medicines require age-specific caution. Use
only within the current approved pediatric age range and under appropriate
professional guidance.
Possible
Side Effects
Possible
unwanted effects may include:
·
Drowsiness, dizziness, dry mouth, blurred vision, constipation or
urinary difficulty associated with CPM
·
Nausea, stomach discomfort or dizziness may occur with Dextromethorphan
·
Phenylephrine may cause nervousness, restlessness, headache,
palpitations or increased blood pressure
·
Rare but serious effects can include severe hypersensitivity, marked
blood-pressure or heart-rhythm changes, or serotonin syndrome when
Dextromethorphan is combined with certain serotonergic medicines
Persistent or troublesome adverse effects should be discussed with a
healthcare professional.

required with sedatives, alcohol exposure, glaucoma, urinary retention and
other anticholinergic medicines.

with substantial mucus, or serious respiratory symptoms for self-treatment
without appropriate clinical evaluation.
