DEXCHLORPHENIRAMINE is an antihistamine medication used to treat allergy symptoms such as nasal congestion, runny nose, and sneezing. It can help reduce symptoms caused by allergies, such as allergic rhinitis and hives. DEXCHLORPHENIRAMINE blocks the release of histamine, thereby reducing allergic reactions. This medication is usually taken by mouth once daily. You should follow your doctor's recommendations and dosage instructions when using DEXCHLORPHENIRAMINE. Possible side effects include drowsiness, dry mouth, dizziness, and increased appetite. If you experience serious side effects, such as difficulty breathing or rapid heartbeat, seek medical attention immediately. Before using DEXCHLORPHENIRAMINE, tell your doctor about allergies, other medications, or medical conditions to ensure safe use.
Instructions for use: Please make sure you have read the instructions on the label clearly before taking DEXCHLORPHENIRAMINE each time. It is generally recommended that adults take 1 tablet 1 to 2 times daily, preferably with a meal to reduce stomach upset. The dosage for children depends on age and weight. Please follow the doctor's instructions. While taking DEXCHLORPHENIRAMINE, please avoid drinking alcohol or participating in activities that require alertness, as this may affect your reaction speed.
Dosage Guidelines: The starting dose for adults is 1 tablet per day. If symptoms are not relieved, consider increasing to 2 tablets per day, but not more than 4 tablets per day. Dosage for children is based on age and weight, and it is recommended to consult a physician to determine the appropriate dose. Dosage adjustments should be made under the guidance of a physician, and you are not allowed to increase or decrease the dose or extend the medication time on your own. Please store DEXCHLORPHENIRAMINE out of the reach of children and avoid excessive use. If serious side effects or allergic reactions occur, seek medical attention immediately.

If you have serious side effects such as difficulty breathing, fast or irregular heartbeat, chest pain, or fainting, seek medical attention immediately.

Dexchlorpheniramine should be avoided in pregnant women as there is insufficient evidence of its safety for the fetus. During pregnancy, especially in the first three months of pregnancy, the use of any medications should be avoided to avoid potential risks to the fetus.
If you are pregnant or planning to become pregnant, you should seek your doctor's advice before using any new medicine. Your doctor can evaluate the risks and benefits of medications based on your specific situation and provide a treatment plan that's best for you.
In addition, during pregnancy, you should try to avoid contact with any substances that may be harmful to the fetus, including smoke, second-hand smoke, toxic chemicals, etc. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle, including good eating habits and moderate exercise, is very important for the health of you and your baby.
Remember, if you suspect you may be pregnant or are pregnant, tell your doctor right away to ensure the health of you and your baby.
