Avil Syrup is used to treat allergic conditions such as hay fever, runny nose, allergic conjunctivitis, vasomotor rhinitis, acute rhinitis, and itching skin conditions. Additionally, Avil Syrup is also used to prevent and treat motion sickness, nausea, vomiting, and vertigo due to Menière's disease and other labyrinthine disturbances.
Avil SyrupE contains Pheniramine maleate, which works by blocking the action of a chemical messenger called 'histamine', which is responsible for causing allergic reactions. Thereby Avil Syrup treats allergic conditions.
You are advised to take Avil Syrup for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you, depending upon your medical condition. In some cases, Avil Syrup may cause side effects, such as drowsiness, dizziness, diarrhea, stomach pain, and dry mouth. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if you experience these side effects persistently.
Do not take Avil Syrup if you are allergic to any of its components.
Avil Syrup may cause excessive drowsiness when taken with alcohol. It is advised to avoid alcohol consumption while using this medication.
There is no available information on the safety of Avil Syrup during pregnancy. It is recommended to consult your doctor before using this medication if you are pregnant.
Avil Syrup is considered likely safe during breastfeeding when prescribed by a doctor. Limited human data suggest no significant risk to the baby. However, larger doses or prolonged use may cause sleepiness or other effects in the infant.
Avil may decrease alertness, impair vision, or cause sleepiness and dizziness. Avoid driving or operating machinery if these symptoms occur.
Limited information is available on the use of Avil Syrup in patients with kidney or liver disease. It is important to consult your doctor if you have either of these conditions before taking Avil.

Treatment of allergic conditions.
Avil Syrup is an antihistamine medicinal drug that contains Pheniramine as the main element present in it. This medication acts as a histamine antagonist that is used for the treatment and prevention from diseases such as hay fever, allergic rhinitis, pruritus, and allergic dermatoses. Pheniramine is also used to control common cold, flu, allergies, watery eyes, running nose, itchy throat, and breathing troubles.
Pheniramine works by competing with histamine for the H1 receptor and acts as an inverse agonist once it binds. This action leads to a decrease in H1 receptor activity, which in turn reduces itching, vasodilation, and capillary leakage, ultimately leading to less redness and swelling. This effect is particularly evident in the suppression of the histamine-induced wheal (swelling) and flare (vasodilation) response.
In the central nervous system (CNS), the inverse agonism of the H1 receptor by pheniramine is responsible for the sedative effects commonly associated with first-generation antihistamines. Additionally, pheniramine's binding to H4 receptors and its inverse agonism at these sites may also help reduce itching by counteracting inflammation.
Adult Dose: For allergic conditions, the recommended dose is 15-30 mg of syrup, 2-3 times daily. The maximum dose should not exceed 3 mg/kg/day. For motion sickness, the same dosage applies, and the first dose should be taken at least 30 minutes before traveling.
Child Dose: For children aged 5-10 years, half a 45 mg tablet up to 3 times daily is recommended. For children over 10 years, the dosage is 15-30 mg of syrup, 2-3 times daily. The maximum dose should not exceed 3 mg/kg/day. The first dose for motion sickness should be taken at least 30 minutes before traveling.
Avil may mask the ototoxicity caused by aminoglycoside antibiotics. It may also potentiate the CNS depressant effects of alcohol, sedatives, opioids, and other similar drugs. MAOIs, atropine, and tricyclic antidepressants (TCAs) may enhance its antimuscarinic effects.
Avil should not be used in patients with symptomatic prostatic hypertrophy, newborns, or premature infants.
Avil may impair your ability to drive or operate machinery. It has the potential for abuse and should be used with caution in patients with narrow-angle glaucoma, asthma, or severe cardiovascular disease. Its antiemetic effect may mask the symptoms of other conditions. Caution is advised in pregnant or breastfeeding women, as well as in the elderly.
