How Does it Work

A small arrow pointing down

Brompheniramine Maleate 0.4 mg/ml/Dextromethorphan Hydrobromide 1 mg/ml/Phenylephrine HCl 1 mg/ml/Guaifenesin 10 mg/ml Oral Syrup is a multi-functional medication designed to alleviate symptoms associated with the common cold, allergies, and other upper respiratory tract infections. This concentrated liquid formulation combines several active ingredients to provide a comprehensive treatment approach.

The Brompheniramine Maleate component works by blocking the action of histamine, a substance in the body that triggers allergic symptoms. Dextromethorphan Hydrobromide contributes to the formula by suppressing the brain chemicals that trigger coughing. Phenylephrine HCl aids in reducing nasal congestion by narrowing the blood vessels. Lastly, Guaifenesin plays a crucial role in thinning and loosening mucus in the lungs, making it easier to cough up and clear the respiratory tract.

This medication is typically administered every 4 to 6 hours as needed, but should not be taken more frequently or in larger doses than recommended. It is also advised not to use this medication for more than 7 days unless specifically directed by a healthcare professional. As this medication may cause drowsiness, caution is advised when driving or operating machinery. It is also recommended to avoid alcohol and other medications that can exacerbate drowsiness while taking this medication.

If you have any questions or concerns about this medication, please consult with your healthcare provider or pharmacist to ensure safe and appropriate use. Remember, it's important to always use medications as directed to achieve the best possible health outcomes.

Enter the formula as a compound

Compounded preparations have no NDC, so this formula will not appear in your EHR's drug search. Use your system's compound, non-formulary, or free-text prescription entry and name the preparation exactly as written in step 3. If your EHR forces you to pick a listed drug, pick the closest entry for the active ingredient and put the full formula in the prescription body (the Sig or directions field), not in Notes to Pharmacy.

Compounded preparations have no NDC and will not appear in your drug search. For EPCS to validate, select a drug entry your EHR recognizes as controlled, usually the bulk powder entry for the active ingredient (for example Ketamine (bulk) powder, not a branded product), then put the full formula from step 3 in the prescription body. A free-text entry that does not validate as controlled will be rejected by your EPCS module.
