What is M-End DMX?

Dexbrompheniramine reduces the effects that histamine has on the body. Histamine can cause symptoms such as sneezing and itching. It may also cause watery eyes and a runny or watery nose. Dextromethorphan suppresses coughing. It works by affecting the brain signals that trigger the cough reflex. Pseudoephedrine works as a nasal decongestant by shrinking blood vessels. Dilated blood vessels can cause congestion in the nasal passages. M-End DMX, a combination medication, is used to treat allergies, colds, flu, sneezing, and watery eye symptoms. M-End DMX does not treat a cough caused by smoking or asthma. M-End DMX can be used in other ways not mentioned in this guide.
