Corex DX Syrup – Relief for Dry Cough
What is Corex DX Syrup?
Corex DX Syrup is a combination medicine that provides temporary relief from dry cough caused by throat irritation, allergies, cold, or flu. It works by:
✔ Suppressing cough reflexes in the brain
✔ Blocking histamine to reduce allergy symptoms (sneezing, runny nose, throat irritation)
Key Benefits:
-
Relieves dry, tickly cough (non-productive cough)
-
Reduces allergy symptoms (watery eyes, sneezing, runny nose)
-
Starts working within minutes, with effects lasting several hours
How to Take:
-
Dosage: As prescribed by your doctor—do not self-adjust.
-
Method: Shake well before use. Measure with a cup; can be taken with or without food.
-
Duration: Complete the full course, even if symptoms improve.
Common Side Effects:
-
Sleepiness

Drowsiness

These usually fade as your body adjusts. Avoid driving or tasks needing focus until you know how it affects you.
Important Safety Advice:
⚠ Avoid alcohol (may worsen dizziness).
⚠ Pregnancy/Breastfeeding: Consult a doctor before use.

⚠ Kidney disease: Likely safe, but confirm with your doctor.
