Side Effects & Adverse Reactions

Pyrilamine Maleate and Chlorpheniramine Maleate:
Antihistamines should be used with considerable caution in patients with narrow angle glaucoma, stenosing peptic
ulcer, pyloroduodenal obstruction, symptomatic prostatic hypertrophy, and bladder neck obstruction. In infants and
children especially, antihistamine overdosage may cause hallucinations, convulsions or death. As in adults,
antihistamines may diminish mental alertness in children. Chlorpheniramine Maleate has additional effects with
alcohol and other CNS depressants (hypnotics, sedatives, tranquilizers) Patients should be warned about engaging
in activities requiring mental alertness, such as driving a car or operating appliances, machinery, etc.

Phenylephrine Hydrochloride:
Sympathomimetic amines should be used with considerable caution in patients with hypertension, ischemic heart
disease, diabetes mellitus, increased intraocular pressure, hyperthyroidism or prostatic hypertrophy.
Sympathomimetics may produce central nervous system stimulation with convulsions or cardiovascular collapse
with accompanying hypotension. DO NOT EXCEED RECOMMENDED DOSAGE. Hypertensive crisis could occur
with concurrent use of phenylephrine and monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibitors, indomethacin or with beta blockers
and methyldopa. If a hypertensive crisis occurs, this drug should be discontinued immediately and therapy to lower
blood pressure should be instituted. Fever should be managed by means of external cooling. The elderly
(approximately sixty years or older) are more likely to have adverse reactions to sympathomimetics. Overdosage of
sympathomimetics in this age group may cause hallucinations, convulsions, CNS depression and death. Therefore,
safe use of a short-acting sympathomimetic should be demonstrated in the individual elderly patient before
considering the use of a sustained-release formulation. Discontinue use if adverse reaction(s) occur.
