Benefits of Chericof Syrup Cherry

In Allergic rhinitis
Chericof blocks the histamine your body releases to an allergen, relieving the sneezing, runny or blocked nose and itchy, watery eyes that spoil your day.
In Hives and skin allergy
Chericof calms the itching and brings down the raised, red weals of hives, so the skin settles and you can sleep.
In Itching
Chericof relieves itching from an allergic reaction, an insect bite or a skin condition, which also stops the scratching that damages skin and keeps it inflamed.
In Allergic asthma
Chericof reduces the allergic inflammation in the airways that triggers wheezing and tightness, so attacks are fewer and milder when it is taken alongside your inhaler.
In Cough
Chericof either loosens the mucus so a chesty cough clears it more easily, or settles the reflex behind a dry, tickly cough, depending on the type you have been given.
In Chest congestion
Chericof thins thick mucus in the chest so it can be coughed up, easing the heaviness and rattling and helping you breathe more freely.
In Common cold symptoms
Chericof relieves the blocked nose, cough and congestion of a cold so you can rest and get on with your day while the infection runs its course.

How Chericof Syrup Cherry works

Alpha-adrenergic agonist that constricts nasal blood vessels to reduce swelling.

How to take Chericof Syrup Cherry

Take 5ml of syrup every 6 hours. Do not exceed the recommended dosage.

Take it exactly as your doctor prescribed. Do not change the dose or stop early on your own.

Missed dose and overdose

If you miss a dose

If you miss a dose of Chericof 12 Oral Suspension Cherry, take it as soon as possible. However, if it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and go back to your regular schedule. Do not double the dose.

If you take too much

An overdose of this medicine can cause severe drowsiness, a fast heartbeat, confusion and, in children, agitation and fits. It can cause vomiting, severe drowsiness, a racing heart and, with codeine, dangerously slow breathing. Do not wait for symptoms to appear — go to the nearest emergency department and take the pack or strip with you.

Side effects of Chericof Syrup Cherry

Most side effects of Chericof are mild and settle as the body gets used to the medicine. The ones reported most often are:

  • Transient burning or stinging in nose
  • headache

Stop the medicine and get help at once for a rash, swelling of the face or lips, wheezing or difficulty breathing. Tell your doctor about any side effect that persists or worries you.
