Hi & Welcome

It is a combination of a nasal decongestant (Phenylephrine) & an antihistamine (Pyrilamine).

It is commonly prescribed to treat the symptoms of watery eyes & sneezing, nasal stuffiness (congestion), running nose due to common colds , upper respiratory infection and certain allergic conditions.

It also helps in relieving sinus congestion and pressure associated with sinusitis.

The identification of the pills can be confirmed by the pharmacist.

Hope this answers your query.
