Description

Largan Syrup treats allergic and short-term common cold symptoms like runny nose, sneezing, watery eyes, skin rash, and itching in children.

The usual prescribed frequency is two to four times a day but may vary as per your child’s condition. For motion sickness, give Largan Syrup 30 to 60 minutes before travel whereas to prevent vomiting post-surgery, you may need to give it a night before the surgical procedure or just before the surgery and may need to continue it afterward as directed.If your child vomits within 30 minutes of taking this medicine, give the same dose again.

How It Works

Largan Syrup is an antiallergic medication. When the body is exposed to an allergen (pollen, animal dander, house dust, etc.), it releases a chemical called histamine. This chemical causes watery eyes, runny or blocked nose, sneezing, skin rashes, itching, etc. Largan Syrup also works directly on several areas of the brain to prevent nausea and vomiting and help you feel more relaxed.
