Introduction: 
Maxtra Syrup is commonly used to treat symptoms of common cold, allergic rhinitis, and other upper respiratory issues such as nasal congestion, runny nose, sneezing, and flu-like symptoms. It contains two active ingredients: Phenylephrine (a nasal decongestant) and Chlorpheniramine Maleate (an antihistamine). Phenylephrine works by constricting the blood vessels in the nasal passages, reducing congestion, while Chlorpheniramine blocks the action of histamines to alleviate symptoms like sneezing and runny nose

Common cold symptoms like sneezing, runny nose, and itching

Phenylephrine is a nasal decongestant that shrinks the swollen blood vessels in the nasal passages, helping to relieve congestion and ease breathing.
