Formula Information

A small arrow pointing down

This formulation combines Chlorpheniramine Maleate and Methscopolamine Nitrate in a liquid form for oral administration. Chlorpheniramine Maleate is an antihistamine that works by blocking the effects of histamine, a substance in the body that causes allergic symptoms. It is commonly used to relieve symptoms of allergies, hay fever, and the common cold. These symptoms include rash, watery eyes, itchy eyes/nose/throat/skin, cough, runny nose, and sneezing.

Methscopolamine Nitrate, on the other hand, is an anticholinergic agent. It works by decreasing the motion of muscles in the stomach, intestines, and bladder. It also decreases the production of stomach acid. This medication is used to treat a variety of stomach/intestinal problems such as cramps and irritable bowel syndrome. It is also used to treat other conditions such as bladder and bowel control problems, and to reduce salivation in patients with Parkinson's disease or who are undergoing certain medical procedures.

The combination of these two medications in a liquid form provides a convenient and easily ingested dosage form. This is particularly beneficial for patients who find swallowing solid dosage forms challenging, such as pediatric and geriatric populations. The liquid form also allows for accurate delivery of medication, ensuring that the patient receives the correct dose.

It is important to note that this medication should be used under the supervision of a healthcare provider. It should be taken exactly as prescribed, and patients should not exceed the recommended dose. Side effects may include dry mouth, dizziness, blurred vision, nausea, and constipation. If these side effects persist or worsen, patients should contact their healthcare provider immediately.

Patients should also inform their healthcare provider of all the medications they are currently taking, as this medication may interact with other drugs. This includes prescription medications, over-the-counter drugs, and herbal products. Patients with certain medical conditions such as glaucoma, heart disease, high blood pressure, liver disease, kidney disease, thyroid problems, diabetes, and others may need to take special precautions when using this medication.

How Does it Work

A small arrow pointing down

Chlorpheniramine Maleate and Methscopolamine Nitrate Oral Liquid is a specially formulated medication that combines two active ingredients to provide relief from certain symptoms. This liquid formulation is designed for oral administration, making it an ideal choice for patients who have difficulty swallowing solid dosage forms, such as children and the elderly.

Chlorpheniramine Maleate is an antihistamine that works by blocking the action of histamine, a substance in the body that causes allergic symptoms. When an allergic reaction occurs, the body releases histamine, which can cause symptoms such as sneezing, itching, watery eyes, and runny nose. By blocking the effects of histamine, Chlorpheniramine Maleate helps to alleviate these symptoms.

Methscopolamine Nitrate, on the other hand, is an anticholinergic agent. It works by blocking the action of acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter that can cause muscle contractions and stimulate the production of body fluids. By blocking the effects of acetylcholine, Methscopolamine Nitrate helps to reduce the production of saliva and other body fluids, and relaxes smooth muscles in the body, which can help to alleviate symptoms such as excessive salivation, runny nose, and spasms in the digestive or urinary tract.

The combination of these two active ingredients in a liquid formulation provides a convenient and accurate way to deliver the medication. The liquid form is easy to swallow and can be accurately measured to provide the correct dose. This makes it an ideal choice for patients who have difficulty swallowing solid dosage forms, or for those who require precise dosing.

It's important to note that while this medication can help to alleviate symptoms, it does not cure the underlying conditions causing these symptoms. It should be used as part of a comprehensive treatment plan, under the supervision of a healthcare provider.

If you have any questions about this formulation, or if you would like more information about how it works, please don't hesitate to reach out to us. We are here to help and provide you with the information you need to make informed decisions about your healthcare.

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.
