Sin A Rest Syrup Tablets
Composition
Each SINAREST Tablet contains:
Paracetamol 500 mg
Pseudoephedrine hydrochloride 60 mg
Chlorpheniramine maleate 2 mg
Caffeine (anhydrous) 30 mg
Pharmacology
SINAREST contains a clinically proven analgesic-antipyretic Paracetamol with
decongestant Pseudoephedrine and an antihistamine Chlorpheniramine.
Paracetamol produces analgesia by elevation of the pain threshold and
antipyretic effect through action on the hypothalamic heat-regulating center.
Paracetamol is equal to aspirin in analgesic and antipyretic effectiveness, and it
is unlikely to produce many of the side effects associated with aspirin and
aspirin-containing products.
The pharmacokinetics of this combination is well matched and synergetic. All the
drugs are well absorbed orally.
Indications
SINAREST is indicated for:
Relief of nasal and sinus congestion.
Relief of allergic symptoms of the nose or throat due to upper respiratory
tract allergies.
Relief of sinus pain and headache.
Adjunct with antibacterials in sinusitis, tonsillitis and otitis media.
Post-operative after tonsillectomy.
Contraindications
The use of SINAREST is contraindicated in patients with hypersensitivity to any
of the ingredients of the formulation.
Precautions
In case a hypersensitivity reaction occurs which is rare, SINAREST should be
discontinued.
Drug Interactions
Clinically significant drug interactions may occur on concomitant administration
of SINAREST with monoamine oxidase inhibitors, tricyclic antidepressants, -

Adverse Reactions
SINAREST is generally well tolerated and adverse events are rare.
Hypersensitive individuals may display ephedrine-like reactions such as
