How It Works
This formula contains diphenhydramine hydrochloride, an antihistamine that helps to suppress the cough reflex and reduce the urge to cough. It also has a mild sedative effect, which can help you fall asleep more easily when a cough is keeping you awake at night.

This medicine is not suitable for children under 12 years of age. Always read the patient information leaflet before use.
