Wikoryl Tablet Use
UpdatedI want to know the use of wikoryl in dry sore throat treatment
Wikoryl contains the active ingredients: Paracetamol + Chlorpheniramine maleate + Phenylephrine hydrochloride. Some Wikoryl suspensions contain Caffeine as well.
Looking at each individual ingredient:
Paracetamol (acetaminophen) is a widely used over-the-counter pain reliever and a fever reducer.
Chlorpheniramine relieves red, itchy, watery eyes; sneezing; itchy nose or throat; and runny nose caused by allergies, hay fever, and the common cold. Chlorpheniramine helps control the symptoms of cold or allergies but will not treat the cause of the symptoms or speed recovery.
Phenylephrine is used to relieve nasal discomfort caused by colds, allergies, and hay fever. It is also used to relieve sinus congestion and pressure. Phenylephrine will relieve symptoms but will not treat the cause of the symptoms or speed recovery.
Based on the above information, I would think this medication useful only if your dry throat is from allergies or due to a cold or fever. In any case, I would recommend simply having some local raw honey to soothe and clear your throat of any impurities. Local raw honey will also help with any allergies you may be experiencing. Staying hydrated throughout the day is just as important as well.
I hope this info helps!

Please give me advice. My 17-month-old baby (weight: 11.6kg) has been suffering from a cold, with a blocked nose and cough. It seems he's having throat pain too because he's crying after each cough. He was given Wikoryl af syrup and Kurfil ls. Is it safe to give this to him?

Can wikoryl tablet be taken for sore throats with pain no cold or cough and how long?
First of all in your case no medicine can work better than your own mind. Sit straight, look up and try to breathe gently without giving strain on your nose. Do it for about 30 seconds. After that drink water and again do the same thing. When nose blockage goes away, relax your back on your bed and try to breathe slowly without using your mouth. After a few minutes take the nasal spray, if available. More than enough! :)
