Nighttime Cough-kids (Nighttime Cough Kids)
This is a description for a medication called Genexa Kids' Nighttime Cough. It contains active ingredients such as Chlorpheniramine maleate and Dextromethorphan HBr, which act as an antihistamine and cough suppressant, respectively. This medication is used to temporarily relieve cough due to minor throat and bronchial irritation caused by a cold or hay fever and other upper respiratory allergies. It also helps with symptoms such as runny nose, sneezing, itchy and watery eyes, and itching of the nose or throat.
However, there are some warnings associated with this medication. It should not be used to sedate a child or make them sleepy. It should also not be used if you are currently taking a prescription monoamine oxidase inhibitor (MAOI) or within 2 weeks of stopping the MAOI drug, as this may have negative interactions. It is important to ask a doctor before using this medication if you have certain conditions like trouble urinating, glaucoma, a cough with too much phlegm, a breathing problem or chronic cough, or if you are taking sedatives or tranquilizers.
When using this medication, it is advised to not exceed the recommended dosage and to be aware that marked drowsiness may occur. It is also advised to avoid alcoholic drinks, as they may increase drowsiness. Be cautious when driving or operating machinery as excitability may occur, especially in children. If the cough lasts more than 7 days, comes back, or is accompanied by fever, rash, or persistent headache, it is recommended to stop using the medication and consult a doctor, as these could be signs of a serious condition.
