How it works

Dextropropoxyphene is an opoid analgesic that is a standard strong opioid used in cancer pain. This blocks the transmission of pain signals to the brain and helps lower pain perception in the brain.
Chlorpheniramine Maleate is an antiallergic medication. When your body is exposed to an allergen (pollen, animal dander, house dust etc.), it produces a chemical called histamine. This causes watery eyes, runny or blocked nose, sneezing, skin rashes, itching etc. Chlorpheniramine Maleate works by blocking the action of histamine, thereby relieving these symptoms.
