About this product
Overview
Allermine Tablet contains Chlorpheniramine Maleate. It comes as a tablet.
Chlorpheniramine maleate is one of the oldest and most widely used antihistamines. It blocks histamine, the chemical released during an allergic reaction, and it causes drowsiness, which is why it appears in so many night time cold remedies.
