About Kogesic Zxt Oral Suspension

Kogesic Zxt Oral Suspension is used to treat symptoms of the common cold and allergies, such as sneezing, runny/stuffy nose, fever, headache, body pains, congestion, or watery eyes. The common cold is a respiratory illness affecting the nose and throat. It is mostly caused by viruses known as rhinovirus. The virus enters the body through the nose, mouth, or eyes and spreads easily through droplets in the air when the person who is sick sneezes, coughs, or talks.

Kogesic Zxt Oral Suspension is a combination of three drugs, namely, Phenylephrine (decongestant), Paracetamol (mild analgesic and antipyretic), and Cetirizine (antihistamine/antiallergic).

Paracetamol works by inhibiting the production of certain chemical messengers in the brain known as prostaglandins, which are responsible for pain and fever.
