Sinarest Tablet manufactured by Centaur Pharma and is the combination of three active ingredients such as Chlorpheniramine, Paracetamol and Phenylephrine.
- Paracetamol – 500 MG
- Phenylephrine – 10 MG
- Chlorpheniramine – 2 MG
Chlorphenamine is a first generation antihistamine for the prevention of allergic symptoms such as rhinitis and urticaria. Its sedative effects are relatively weak compared to other first generation antihistamines.
Paracetamol, also known as acetaminophen, is a commonly used medication that can help treat pain and reduce high temperatures (fever). It is usually used to relieve mild or moderate pain, such as headache.
Phenylephrine is used to temporarily relieve congestive nasal, sinus and ear symptoms caused by a cold, flu, allergies or other respiratory diseases (eg, sinusitis, bronchitis). This medication works by reducing swelling in the nose and ears, which reduces discomfort and facilitates breathing.

How Sinarest Tablet Work?
It is believed that acetaminophen (Paracetamol) acts mainly in the CNS, by increasing the pain threshold to increase both isoforms of cyclooxygenase enzymes inhibiting COX-1, COX-2 and COX-3 involved in the synthesis of prostaglandins (PG).
Chlorpheniramine binds to the histamine H1 receptor. This blocks the action of endogenous histamine, which subsequently leads to temporary relief of the negative symptoms caused by histamine.
Phenylephrine reduces nasal congestion by acting on alpha 1 adrenergic receptors in the arterioles in the nasal mucosa to create constriction.
