Mebcidina 50mg Syrup

Mebcidina 50mg Syrup contains Mebhydrolin 50mg, a sedating (first-generation) antihistamine. Made by Mediceena, it is used for allergies, allergic rhinitis, hives, itching and insect bite reactions. Pack size: 100ml syrup.

Uses of Mebcidina 50mg Syrup

Mebcidina 50mg Syrup is used to relieve the symptoms of allergies. It can ease sneezing, a runny or itchy nose and watery eyes in hay fever, and it calms itching and rashes in hives, insect bite reactions and other allergic skin conditions. It treats the symptoms rather than the cause of the allergy, so avoiding known triggers remains important.

How Mebcidina 50mg Syrup works

Mebhydrolin blocks histamine, a chemical the body releases during an allergic reaction. Histamine is responsible for itching, swelling, sneezing and a runny nose, so blocking its effect reduces these symptoms. Like other older antihistamines it also enters the brain, which explains why it can cause drowsiness.

Possible side effects

Drowsiness is the effect people notice most with Mebcidina 50mg Syrup. Other common side effects include:

• Drowsiness or tiredness
• Dry mouth
• Dizziness
• Nausea or stomach upset
• Blurred vision

Seek urgent medical help for swelling of the face or throat or difficulty breathing. Contact a doctor promptly if you develop a fever, sore throat or mouth ulcers, as very rarely it can affect white blood cells.

Precautions and warnings

• Do not drive, ride or operate machinery if it makes you sleepy, and avoid alcohol, which increases drowsiness.
• Tell your doctor if you have glaucoma, an enlarged prostate, difficulty passing urine, epilepsy or liver disease.
• Avoid taking it with other sedating medicines such as sleeping tablets, strong painkillers or other antihistamines unless advised.
• If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, ask your doctor before using Mebcidina 50mg Syrup.
• Children and older people may be more sensitive to its side effects, so use it only as directed.

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.
