Description
Codeine is an analgesic classified as a natural opioid because of its presence in opium from the poppy plant. Codeine is on the World Health Organization list of essential adult medicines.
Triprolidine is a first-generation antihistamine and readily crosses the blood-brain barrier because of its liposolubility and lower molecular mass. Triprolidine is classified as an alkylamine, which has milder sedating effects and minimal anticholinergic activity compared with other types of first-generation antihistamines.
Indications
Grilinctus CD Syrup is indicated for symptomatic treatment of dry cough in adults.
