dropropizine + pseudoephedrine + brompheniramine

This drug is a **combination product** containing **dropropizine** (a non-opioid antitussive/cough suppressant), **pseudoephedrine** (a sympathomimetic amine serving as a nasal decongestant via vasoconstriction through alpha- and beta-adrenergic receptor agonism[4]), and **brompheniramine** (an antihistamine that antagonizes histamine H1 receptors). The combination is indicated primarily for the symptomatic treatment of **cough** and **nasal congestion** associated with the **common cold** or **upper respiratory tract infections**, especially in pediatric populations[5][7]. - Dropropizine acts centrally to suppress cough reflex - Pseudoephedrine decreases nasal congestion by vasoconstriction in nasal mucosa - Brompheniramine relieves allergic symptoms by blocking H1 histamine receptors Primary use is for cough and cold symptom relief, typically as an oral syrup, such as in Dimetapp elixir[5][7].
