Managing the Side Effects:

Most side effects are temporary and generally harmless, which resolve on discontinuing the use of Solvin Tablet. However, if you experience any serious side effects or worsening of any of the symptoms, please consult your doctor.

Solvin Tablet contains phenylephrine (10 mg), which works in the body in the following way:

Stimulates alpha 1-adrenergic receptors: Phenylephrine is a sympathomimetic amine that acts as a selective alpha 1-adrenergic receptor agonist. In simpler terms, it stimulates specific receptors in your body that play a crucial role in constricting blood vessels.
Reduces nasal congestion: When phenylephrine stimulates these alpha 1-adrenergic receptors, it causes the blood vessels in your nasal passages to narrow or constrict (a process called vasoconstriction). This vasoconstriction reduces inflammation and mucus production in these passages, thereby relieving nasal congestion.

Pregnancy

If you are pregnant, it is best to consult your doctor before commencing this medicine.

Breastfeeding

If you are breastfeeding, you should be cautious while using Solvin Tablet. Checking with your doctor before starting this medicine is a good idea.

Alcohol
