Actifed Multi-Action Tablets provide effective relief from cold and allergy symptoms, including congestion, runny nose, and sneezing. Their triple-action formula clears nasal passages, dries up mucus, and eases discomfort for easier breathing.
Actifed Multi-Action Tablets are an effective combination medicine that relieves nasal congestion, sinus pressure, runny nose, sneezing, and watery eyes caused by colds, flu, hay fever, or allergies.
Each tablet contains two active ingredients:
Pseudoephedrine hydrochloride (60mg) – a decongestant that clears blocked noses and sinuses by reducing swelling in nasal passages.
Triprolidine hydrochloride (2.5mg) – an antihistamine that eases allergy symptoms like sneezing, itching, and watery eyes.
Together, these ingredients provide comprehensive multi-symptom relief from common cold and allergy discomfort.
