WOCKHARDT PROMETHAZINE WITH CODEINE

WOCKHARDT PROMETHAZINE WITH CODEINE is a prescription-based oral syrup formulated to help manage moderate to severe coughs and upper respiratory discomfort when directed by a licensed medical professional. Known for its combination of promethazine, an antihistamine, and codeine, an opioid cough suppressant, this medication is designed to provide short-term relief when symptoms do not respond to typical over-the-counter solutions.

Promethazine helps ease allergy-related symptoms such as sneezing, runny nose, and throat irritation, while also offering calming effects that may support rest during illness. Codeine works by reducing the urge to cough, acting directly on the cough reflex pathway in the brain. Together, these components deliver a targeted approach to relief when medically appropriate.

This formulation is often used in cases where a persistent cough disrupts sleep or daily activities. However, because it contains codeine—classified as a controlled substance—it must be used responsibly and only under the supervision of a licensed healthcare provider. Patients should always follow prescribed dosage instructions and avoid combining the medication with alcohol, sedatives, or other substances that may depress the central nervous system.

Certain individuals—including those with respiratory conditions, liver issues, or a history of substance misuse—should consult their healthcare provider to ensure this medication is appropriate and safe for their specific needs. WOCKHARDT PROMETHAZINE WITH CODEINE
