Zotex-DM Liquid


Generic Name: Chlorpheniramine/Dextromethorphan/Guaifenesin/Phenylephrine Liquid and Syrup (klor-fen-EER-a-meen/ dex -troe-meth-OR-fan/gwye-FEN-e-sin/ fen-ill-EF-rin)
Brand Name: Examples include Genelan NF and Zotex-DM

Zotex-DM Liquid is used for:

Relieving symptoms of sinus congestion, runny nose, sneezing, cough, and throat and airway irritation due to colds, upper respiratory infections, and allergies. It may also be used for other conditions as determined by your doctor.

Zotex-DM Liquid is an antihistamine, decongestant, cough suppressant, and expectorant combination. It works by constricting blood vessels and reducing swelling in the nasal passages, loosening mucus and lung secretions in the chest, and making coughs more productive. The antihistamine works by blocking the action of histamine, which helps reduce symptoms such as watery eyes and sneezing while the cough suppressant works in the brain to help decrease the cough reflex to reduce a dry cough.

Do NOT use Zotex-DM Liquid if:

  • you are allergic to any ingredient in Zotex-DM Liquid
  • you have severe high blood pressure, severe heart blood vessel disease, rapid heartbeat, or severe heart problems
  • you are unable to urinate or are having an asthma attack
  • you take sodium oxybate (GHB) or if you have taken furazolidone or a monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibitor (eg, phenelzine) within the last 14 days

Contact your doctor or health care provider right away if any of these apply to you.
