Uses of Avil Syrup 90ml

Avil Syrup 90ml is an antihistamine used to relieve allergic conditions such as hay fever, allergic rhinitis, hives (urticaria), itchy skin and reactions to insect bites. In clinics and hospitals the injection is given by doctors to treat acute allergic reactions, often alongside other treatment. Some cough and cold products also contain it to help with a runny nose and sneezing.

How Avil Syrup 90ml works

Pheniramine blocks H1 histamine receptors. Histamine is released during an allergic reaction and causes itching, swelling, sneezing and a runny nose, so blocking it eases these symptoms. It also crosses into the brain, which is why it causes drowsiness.

Possible side effects

Drowsiness is common with Avil Syrup 90ml, so plan around it. Other side effects can include:

• Drowsiness
• Dry mouth
• Dizziness
• Blurred vision
• Constipation
• Difficulty passing urine

Seek emergency help for swelling of the throat, difficulty breathing or collapse, as a severe allergic reaction needs adrenaline. Also get medical help for fits, confusion or a fast, irregular heartbeat.

Precautions and warnings

• Do not drive, operate machinery or drink alcohol while taking it, as it can make you very drowsy.
• Tell your doctor if you have glaucoma, an enlarged prostate or difficulty passing urine, epilepsy, or liver problems.
• Avoid taking it with other sedating medicines, sleeping tablets or MAOI antidepressants.
• Young children and older people are more sensitive to its effects; use it in children only on medical advice.
• Ask your doctor before use if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.

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.
