Kuffdryl Cough Syrup contains three active ingredients which work together to manage symptoms of cough and cold:

Diphenhydramine (14.08 mg): Acting as an antihistamine, diphenhydramine blocks the action of histamine, a chemical released by your body during an allergic reaction. This helps reduce symptoms such as runny nose, watery eyes, itching, and sneezing. It also has a mild sedative effect that may assist in suppressing cough.
Ammonium Chloride (138 mg): This component functions as an expectorant. It helps loosen and thin mucus in your airways, making it easier for you to cough it out. By doing so, it increases the volume and reduces the viscosity of bronchial secretions.
Sodium Citrate (57.03 mg): Another expectorant in Kuffdryl Cough Syrup is sodium citrate. It aids in loosening phlegm and thinning bronchial secretions to rid the bronchial passageways of bothersome mucus, making coughs more productive.

Pregnancy

Caution is advised while taking Kuffdryl Cough Syrup if you are pregnant. It's best to consult your doctor before taking this medicine.

Breastfeeding

Diphenhydramine, one of the ingredients in Kuffdryl Cough Syrup, is secreted in breast milk. Therefore, it's important to exercise caution and consult your doctor when considering this medicine if you are a nursing mother.

Alcohol

Alcohol may increase the sedative effects of diphenhydramine in Kuffdryl Cough Syrup. It's advisable to limit alcohol consumption when taking this medicine.

Liver

If you have liver health issues, it's recommended to discuss this with your doctor before starting Kuffdryl Cough Syrup.

Kidney

If you have a history of kidney problems, talk to your doctor before starting on Kuffdryl Cough Syrup.

Using Machines & Driving

Kuffdryl Cough Syrup may cause drowsiness. If you feel dizzy or sleepy after taking this medicine, avoid driving or operating heavy machinery until you know how the syrup affects you.

Allergy

Do not take Kuffdryl Cough Syrup if you are allergic to any of its ingredients, such as ammonium chloride, diphenhydramine, or sodium citrate.

Children

Kuffdryl Cough Syrup should not be used in children under 2 years of age without consulting a doctor. For children over 2 years, always follow the recommended dosage.

Older Patients

Older patients may be more prone to side effects from Kuffdryl Cough Syrup. It's advisable for older patients to take this medicine under medical supervision. It's also important to discuss any existing liver or kidney issues with the doctor before starting this medicine.

Remember, it's crucial to adhere to the prescribed dosage and never exceed it without consulting your doctor.

Should you accidentally take more Kuffdryl Cough Syrup than recommended, you might experience severe drowsiness and confusion as these are the usual signs of an overdose. If these symptoms persist, it's important to inform your doctor.

Missed Dose

If you miss a dose of Kuffdryl Cough Syrup, take it as soon as you remember. However, if it's almost time for the next dose, skip the missed one and continue with your regular schedule. Never double up on doses without consulting your doctor.

Store Kuffdryl Cough Syrup at a temperature below 25°C.
Keep the syrup in its original container and ensure it's tightly closed to avoid exposure to air or moisture.
Do not expose the syrup to direct light.

For those managing cold, flu, or respiratory infections with Kuffdryl Cough Syrup, drinking plenty of warm fluids like soups and herbal infusions can help loosen mucus.
