What is chlorpheniramine, carbetapentane, ephedrine, and phenylephrine?

Chlorpheniramine is an antihistamine. It blocks the effects of the naturally occurring chemical histamine in the body. Chlorpheniramine prevents sneezing; itchy, watery eyes and nose; and other symptoms of allergies and hay fever.

Carbetapentane is a cough suppressant. It suppresses an area in the brain that causes coughing.

Ephedrine and phenylephrine are decongestants. They constrict blood vessels (veins and arteries). This reduces the blood flow and allows nasal passages to open up.

Chlorpheniramine, carbetapentane, ephedrine, and phenylephrine is used to treat nasal congestion, sinusitis (inflammation of the sinuses), and coughs associated with allergies, hay fever, and the common cold.

Chlorpheniramine, carbetapentane, ephedrine, and phenylephrine may also be used for purposes other than those listed in this medication guide.
