About Lecof-C Syrup
Lecof-C Syrup belongs to a class of medication called ‘cough and cold preparations’ primarily used to treat dry cough associated with a common cold or upper respiratory allergies. Coughing (dry or productive) is the body’s way of clearing irritants (like allergens, mucus, or smoke) from airways and preventing infection. There are two types of coughs: Dry cough and chesty cough. A dry cough is tickly and doesn't produce any vicious or thick mucus, while a chesty cough (wet cough) means mucous or sputum is produced to help clear your airways.
Lecof-C Syrup is a combination of two drugs: Codeine (cough suppressant) and Triprolidine(antihistamine). Codeine belongs to the class of cough suppressants that blocks the μ-opioid receptor in the brain that produces cough, thereby decreasing the urge to cough. Triprolidine belongs to the class of antihistamines (anti-allergic drugs) that works by blocking the action of histamine, a substance responsible for causing allergic reactions.
Take Lecof-C Syrup as prescribed by your doctor. Take Lecof-C Syrup for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you, depending on your medical condition. In some cases, you may experience certain side effects, including drowsiness, dry mouth, vomiting, blurred vision, constipation, dizziness, or tiredness. Most of these side effects of Lecof-C Syrup do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your doctor.
Please tell your doctor if you are allergic to Lecof-C Syrup or any other medicines. Drink plenty of fluids while taking Lecof-C Syrup to loosen mucus and protect yourself from being dehydrated or overheated during exercise. In hot weather, as Lecof-C Syrup contains Triprolidine, it decreases sweating and increases heatstroke risk. Do not take Lecof-C Syrup if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, as it may cause adverse effects on the baby. Lecof-C Syrup is not recommended for children below 18 years of age. Do not take Lecof-C Syrup if you have taken an MAO inhibitor (anti-depressant medication like Isocarboxazid, Phenelzine, Selegiline, and Tranylcypromine) in the last 14 days, as it may cause life-threatening drug interaction. Lecof-C Syrup is a habit-forming drug, and hence there is a risk of dependence on Lecof-C Syrup . So, before stopping Lecof-C Syrup , contact a doctor as it may cause withdrawal symptoms like anxiety, increased heart rate, tremors, or general unwell feelings.
