Overview
Promethazine Syrup (100ml) contains promethazine, a sedating antihistamine in an easy-to-take liquid form. It is used to relieve allergy symptoms (such as itching, hives, hay fever and allergic rashes), to prevent and treat nausea, vomiting and motion sickness, and as a short-term aid for sleep, thanks to its calming, drowsy effect. Promethazine works by blocking histamine and calming the parts of the brain involved in nausea and wakefulness. A versatile, doctor- or pharmacist-guided medicine for people managing allergies, nausea or short-term sleep problems. Confirm the active on the pack.
