Uses of Tixylix Syrup 120ml

Tixylix Syrup 120ml is used for short-term relief of a dry, tickly cough, especially one that keeps you awake at night or is linked with allergy or a runny nose. It is not suitable for chesty coughs with phlegm, because stopping the cough may let mucus build up.

How Tixylix Syrup 120ml works

Pholcodine is an opioid-type cough suppressant that acts on the cough centre in the brain to reduce the urge to cough. Promethazine is an antihistamine that dries secretions and relieves allergic symptoms, and its sedating effect helps with sleep.

Possible side effects

Tixylix Syrup 120ml commonly makes people drowsy. Other side effects can include:

• Drowsiness
• Dry mouth
• Dizziness
• Constipation
• Blurred vision
• Nausea

Seek urgent medical help if you notice slow or difficult breathing, severe drowsiness, confusion or fits, or swelling of the face or throat.

Precautions and warnings

• Tell your doctor, surgeon or anaesthetist that you have taken pholcodine if you need a general anaesthetic, as it has been linked with allergic reactions to some anaesthetic muscle relaxants.
• It is not suitable for young children; promethazine-containing cough medicines are generally not given to children under 6.
• Tell your doctor if you have asthma or a chronic chest condition, liver or kidney disease, epilepsy, glaucoma or an enlarged prostate.
• Avoid alcohol and other sedating medicines, and do not drive or operate machinery if you feel drowsy.
• Use it only for a short time and not in pregnancy or breastfeeding unless a doctor advises it.

Storage

Store below 30°C, away from direct sunlight. Keep the bottle tightly closed and do not use it after the expiry date or the period stated on the label once opened. Keep all medicines out of the reach of children.
