How Gudnim Cold Drop works
Gudnim Cold Drop is a combination of three medicines: chlorpheniramine, paracetamol, and phenylephrine, which relieve common cold symptoms. Chlorpheniramine is an antiallergic that relieves allergy symptoms like a runny nose, watery eyes, and sneezing. Paracetamol is an analgesic (pain reliever) and antipyretic (fever reducer). It blocks the release of certain chemical messengers in the brain that are responsible for pain and fever. Phenylephrine is a nasal decongestant that narrows the small blood vessels, providing relief from congestion or stuffiness in the nose.
