HOW SUMO COLD TABLET WORKS
SUMO
COLD TABLET is a combination of Cetirizine, Paracetamol and
Phenylephrine where Cetirizine is an H1 receptor antagonist that works
by blocking the action of a chemical messenger (histamine) responsible
for runny nose, watery eyes, and sneezing. Paracetamol is an analgesic
and antipyretic that acts by inhibiting the synthesis of prostaglandins
(chemicals that cause inflammation, pain, and fever) which helps in
reducing pain and fever. Phenylephrine is a nasal decongestant that acts
by narrowing the small blood vessels providing temporary relief from
congestion or stuffiness in the nose.
