Allerest Maximum Strength (sm)

Subject: Allerest Maximum Strength (sm)

Chlorpheniramine is an antihistamine that reduces the natural chemical histamine in the body. Histamine can produce symptoms of sneezing, itching, watery eyes, and runny nose.


Pseudoephedrine is a decongestant that shrinks blood vessels in the nasal passages. Dilated blood vessels can cause nasal congestion (stuffy nose).


The combination of chlorpheniramine and pseudoephedrine is used to treat sneezing, cough, runny or stuffy nose, itchy or watery eyes, hives, skin rash, itching, and other symptoms of allergies and the common cold.

It s/l he is saying "strength within normal limits." Right before that he says "Cranial nerves II-XII were grossly intact", which would go under a neurlogical section.
