Product Description
Wikoryl AF 1 Oral Drops Banana-Pineapple is a pediatric formulation designed to provide relief from symptoms of the common cold, allergies, and nasal congestion. It contains Chlorpheniramine Maleate, an anti-allergic agent that helps reduce sneezing, watery eyes, and runny nose, along with Phenylephrine, a nasal decongestant that eases breathing by shrinking swollen blood vessels in the nasal passages.
