Sumo Cold Drop is commonly prescribed in children to treat common cold symptoms like sore throat, runny nose, cough, sneezing, watery eyes, body ache, and fever. Sumo Cold Drop is a combination of three medicines: Chlorpheniramine, paracetamol, and phenylephrine which relieves common cold symptoms. Chlorpheniramine is an antiallergic that relieves allergy symptoms like runny nose, watery eyes, and sneezing. Paracetamol is an analgesic (pain reliever) and antipyretic (fever reducer). It blocks the release of certain chemical messengers in the brain that are responsible for pain and fever. Phenylephrine is a nasal decongestant that narrows the small blood vessels providing relief from congestion or stuffiness in the nose.

My child has a cough and fever. Can I give him two medicines together?
It is not advisable to administer multiple cough or cold medications simultaneously unless specifically advised by the treating physician. Mixing different types of medicine can result in an overdose, potentially leading to serious complications. Always consult your child's doctor before administering any medication.
Can I give my cough medicine to my child?
Never administer medicines intended for adults to children. Always utilize medications specifically formulated for use in young patients. Carefully review the label before administering the medicine to your child and ensure proper dosage is given as prescribed by a medical professional. Consult your child's doctor if symptoms remain unresolved or worsen after treatment.
Can Sumo Cold Drop make my child sleepy?
Sumo Cold Drop might induce mild drowsiness, potentially leading to sleepiness in children. Avoid using this medicine for inducing sleep, as it may mask underlying sleep disorders such as insomnia. Always consult a doctor before administering this medication to your child.
Ensure your child takes extra care when taking part in physical activities. Never combine Sumo Cold Drop with other cold and flu medicines as that may lead to side effects. Stop Sumo Cold Drop and immediately report to the doctor if your child develops an itchy rash, facial swelling, or breathing difficulties.
- Practice self-care tips: Clean and disinfect surfaces after sneezing and coughing to avoid allergy. Give your child plenty of fluids as it helps to thin and to loosen the mucus in the lungs. Restrain your child from having dairy products, coffee, and foods that are spicy and fried. All these can trigger coughing. Make your child gargle with warm saltwater. Ensure your child takes enough rest.
- No common side effects listed.
