Arinac Syrup 120ml

About Arinac Syrup 120ml

Arinac Syrup Uses

• Nasal and sinus congestion caused by the common cold or flu.
• Fever accompanying cold, flu, or other minor illness.
• Headache and body aches linked to cold or flu symptoms.
• Sinus pressure and facial pain caused by blocked nasal passages.
• Combined pain, fever, and congestion relief during upper respiratory infections.

Arinac Syrup Benefits

• Combines pain and fever relief with decongestant action in a single syrup.
• Reduces the number of separate medicines needed to manage multiple cold and flu symptoms.
• Liquid formulation supports accurate dosing in children as well as adults who prefer not to swallow tablets.
• Pseudoephedrine acts directly on nasal blood vessels for targeted congestion relief.
• Suitable for short term use during acute cold or flu episodes.
• Available in a large bottle size suited to a full course of symptomatic treatment.

What Experts Say

Arinac Syrup combines Ibuprofen, an NSAID that blocks the cyclooxygenase enzymes responsible for prostaglandins, with Pseudoephedrine, a decongestant that activates alpha adrenergic receptors in the nasal lining. Ibuprofen reduces pain, fever, and inflammation, while Pseudoephedrine constricts nasal blood vessels to shrink swollen tissue and ease congestion.

Combining the two addresses cold and flu symptoms from two different angles in a single dose, since body aches and fever come from inflammation while a blocked nose comes from swollen nasal blood vessels. Treating both together is why combination products like Arinac Syrup are often preferred over taking a pain reliever and a decongestant separately.

Pseudoephedrine is a mild stimulant, so it can raise heart rate and blood pressure and cause restlessness or difficulty sleeping in some people. Ibuprofen is cleared through the kidneys, while Pseudoephedrine is eliminated largely unchanged in urine, so both should be used cautiously in patients with reduced kidney function.

How to use Arinac Syrup 120ml?

Drug Interactions

Arinac Syrup carries interaction risks from both of its ingredients. The following should be noted:

• Monoamine Oxidase Inhibitors: Combining Pseudoephedrine with MAOIs can cause a dangerous rise in blood pressure.
• Other Decongestants or Stimulants: Taking additional decongestants alongside Arinac Syrup increases the risk of a rapid heartbeat and high blood pressure.
• Anticoagulants and Antiplatelets: Combining Ibuprofen with Warfarin, Aspirin, or Clopidogrel increases the risk of bleeding.
• Blood Pressure Medicines: Both Ibuprofen and Pseudoephedrine can reduce the effectiveness of medicines used to lower blood pressure.

Risks and warnings

• Store at room temperature, below 30°C.
• Keep away from direct sunlight, heat, and moisture.
• Store in the original packaging until ready to use.
• Keep out of reach and sight of children.
• Do not use after the expiry date printed on the packaging.

Effects that call for prompt medical attention are uncommon but include:

• Signs of gastrointestinal bleeding such as black stools or vomiting blood.
• A rapid, pounding, or irregular heartbeat.
