1. What is Tylol Fen Hot, and how does it work?
Answer:
Tylol Fen Hot is an over-the-counter medication designed to relieve common cold and flu symptoms. It combines three active ingredients: Paracetamol, which reduces pain and fever; Pseudoephedrine HCl, a decongestant that unblocks the nose; and Chlorpheniramine Maleate, an antihistamine that controls sneezing and runny nose. Together, these ingredients provide fast and effective multi-symptom relief. It is available in different variants:
•Tylol Fen Hot: Standard formula for multi-symptom relief in adults and children over 12.
•Tylol Hot Pediatric: Lower-dosage version, safe for children over 6 years, for milder symptom relief.
•Tylol Hot C: Contains additional Vitamin C for immune support.
•Tylol Hot D (Day): Provides a daytime formula that reduces symptoms while minimizing drowsiness.
All variants combine Paracetamol for pain and fever reduction, Pseudoephedrine HCl for nasal decongestion, and Chlorpheniramine Maleate for allergy-related symptoms, making them effective in treating multiple cold and flu symptoms.
