PRODUCT INTRODUCTION

Ranikast Syrup is a commonly prescribed medication for children, aimed at alleviating allergy symptoms such as runny nose, sneezing, itching, swelling, congestion, and watery eyes. It may also be beneficial in managing asthma and skin allergies.

Administer this medicine to your child at a designated time, either before or after meals, following the prescribed dosage, schedule, and method of administration. For asthma treatment, it is advisable to give Ranikast Syrup in the evening or about 2 hours before engaging in physical activity. Regarding allergies, the best time for administration depends on when the symptoms typically appear; either in the morning or evening. If your child experiences both conditions, evening administration is preferred. If your child vomits within 30 minutes of taking the medicine, give them the same dose again. However, if it is almost time for the next dose, skip the repeated dose.

Although your child may start feeling better after regular doses, it is essential to complete the entire prescribed course to ensure maximum benefit. Abruptly discontinuing the medicine could worsen your child's condition. Ranikast Syrup may cause minor and temporary side effects such as vomiting, diarrhea, nausea, dizziness, dry mouth, rash, and headache. Typically, these side effects subside as the body adapts to the medication. In case these effects persist or become troublesome, promptly consult your child's doctor.

Inform your child's doctor about any other medications your child is currently taking. Also, provide a comprehensive medical history, including any past instances of allergies, heart problems, blood disorders, vascular disorders, birth defects, airway obstruction, lung anomalies, skin disorders, liver impairment, or kidney malfunction. This information is crucial for dose adjustments and to plan your child's overall treatment effectively.

BENEFITS OF RANIKAST SYRUP

In Treatment of sneezing and runny nose due to allergies

Ranikast Syrup is a blended medication designed to alleviate symptoms like nasal congestion, runny nose, sneezing, and irritated or watery eyes. Using this medicine can help you carry out your daily activities with greater ease. Serious side effects are uncommon, and you might only need to take it on days when symptoms are present. However, if you are using it for preventive purposes, regular usage is recommended to achieve the maximum benefits.

In Treatment of hay fever



Hay fever, also known as allergic rhinitis, leads to symptoms similar to a cold, such as a runny nose, itchy eyes, congestion, sneezing, and sinus pressure. The key distinction is that hay fever symptoms are not caused by a virus but are instead the body's allergic responses to allergens (substances that trigger allergies, like pollen). Ranikast Syrup is used to alleviate these hay fever symptoms. Its mechanism involves inhibiting the release of the chemical responsible for producing such allergic reactions. Ranikast Syrup is a safe medication that effectively treats hay fever and provides relief, promoting a sense of comfort.

In Treatment of allergic skin conditions



Ranikast Syrup has proven efficacy in addressing allergic skin conditions characterized by inflammation and itching. It operates by diminishing the impact of certain chemicals within the body that trigger skin inflammation. When used as directed, it serves as a secure and efficient treatment, reducing redness, rashes, pain, or itchiness resulting from skin reactions to irritants. Consequently, it contributes to enhancing self-esteem and confidence as it brings about positive changes in one's appearance. To reap the complete advantages, it is essential to continue taking the medication for the entire prescribed duration.

HOW RANIKAST SYRUP WORKS

Ranikast Syrup is a medication that combines Levocetirizine and Montelukast to alleviate symptoms associated with allergies, such as sneezing and a runny nose. Levocetirizine acts as an antiallergic agent by inhibiting the activity of histamine, a chemical messenger responsible for causing runny nose, watery eyes, and sneezing. On the other hand, Montelukast functions as a leukotriene antagonist, blocking another chemical messenger called leukotriene. This action helps to reduce inflammation and swelling in the airways and nose, leading to an improvement in allergy symptoms.
