________________________________________
DESCRIPTION
ALNIX PLUS Cetirizine plus Phenylephrine Syrup 5 mg per 5 mL is a combination anti allergy and nasal decongestant medication. Cetirizine is a second generation antihistamine that relieves allergic symptoms by blocking histamine (H1) receptors, while phenylephrine is a sympathomimetic decongestant that reduces nasal congestion by constricting swollen blood vessels in the nasal passages. The syrup formulation is suitable for pediatric and adult patients as prescribed.
