Axcel Diphenhydramine Paediatric Syrup 100ml

Axcel Diphenhydramine Paediatric Syrup is a combination cough and cold syrup containing diphenhydramine hydrochloride (an antihistamine) and ammonium chloride (an expectorant), formulated at a lower strength suitable for paediatric use. If you're giving this to your child for the first time, you're probably wondering how it helps with cough symptoms — diphenhydramine blocks histamine activity to reduce coughing and allergy-related symptoms, while ammonium chloride helps loosen and thin mucus to make coughing more productive. It may be taken with or without food. Common effects include drowsiness, sedation, dizziness, and headache, and it may affect coordination and reaction time. It is intended for short-term relief of cough and congestion, and medical advice should be sought if symptoms persist beyond a week or worsen. Speak with your doctor or pharmacist before use if your child has asthma, kidney disease, liver problems, or other underlying health conditions.

For children aged 2–5 years, the usual dose is 2.5mL every 4–6 hours, up to a maximum of 15mL in 24 hours. For children aged 6–12 years, the usual dose is 2.5–5mL every 4–6 hours, up to a maximum of 30mL in 24 hours. For adults and children above 12 years, the typical dose is 5–10mL every 4–6 hours, up to a maximum of 60mL in 24 hours. Always follow the recommended dose for the child’s age.
