Duact Capsule ( Pseudoephedrine Hydrochloride ) 30 capsule
Duact
Duact consists of Acrivastine, Pseudoephedrine Hydrochloride.
Acrivastine - This combination medication is used to temporarily relieve
symptoms caused by the common cold, flu, allergies, or other breathing
illnesses (such as sinusitis, bronchitis ). Antihistamines help relieve
watery eyes, itchy eyes/nose/throat, runny nose, and sneezing.
Decongestants help to relieve stuffy nose and ear congestion symptoms.
If you are self-treating with this medication, carefully read the
package instructions to be sure it is right for you before you start
using this product. Some products have similar brand names but different
active ingredients with different uses. Taking the wrong product could
harm you. Ask your pharmacist if you have any questions about your
product or its use. Cough-and-cold products have not been shown to be
safe or effective in children younger than 6 years. Therefore, do not
use this product to treat cold symptoms in children younger than 6 years
unless specifically directed by the doctor. Some products (including
some long-acting tablets/capsules) are not recommended for use in
children younger than 12 years. Ask your doctor or pharmacist for more
details about using your product safely. Do not use this product to make
a child sleepy. These products do not cure or shorten the length of the
common cold and may cause serious side effects. To decrease the risk
for serious side effects, carefully follow all dosage directions. Do not
give other cough-and-cold medication that might contain the same or
similar ingredients (see also Drug Interactions section). Ask the doctor
or pharmacist about other ways to relieve cough and cold symptoms (such
as drinking enough fluids, using a humidifier or saline nose
drops/spray).
Pseudoephedrine Hydrochloride - An alpha- and beta-adrenergic agonist
that may also enhance release of norepinephrine. It has been used in the
treatment of several disorders including asthma, heart failure,
rhinitis, and urinary incontinence, and for its central nervous system
stimulatory effects in the treatment of narcolepsy and depression. It
has become less extensively used with the advent of more selective
agonists.
Indication: For the treatment of nasal congestion, sinus congestion,
Eustachian tube congestion, and vasomotor rhinitis, and as an adjunct to
other agents in the optimum treatment of allergic rhinitis, croup,
sinusitis, otitis media, and tracheobronchitis. Also used as first-line
therapy of priapism.
Duact (Pseudoephedrine Hydrochloride) is a sympathomimetic agent,
structurally similar to ephedrine, used to relieve nasal and sinus
congestion and reduce air-travel-related otalgia in adults. The salts
Duact (Pseudoephedrine Hydrochloride) hydrochloride and Duact
(Pseudoephedrine Hydrochloride) sulfate are found in many
over-the-counter preparations either as single-ingredient preparations,
or more commonly in combination with antihistamines and/or
paracetamol/ibuprofen. Unlike antihistamines, which modify the systemic
histamine-mediated allergic response, Duact (Pseudoephedrine
Hydrochloride) only serves to relieve nasal congestion commonly
associated with colds or allergies. The advantage of oral Duact
(Pseudoephedrine Hydrochloride) over topical nasal preparations, such as
oxymetazoline, is that it does not cause rebound congestion (rhinitis
medicamentosa).
