What is Rynex DM ?
Brompheniramine reduces the effects that histamine has on the body. Histamine may cause symptoms such as sneezing, itching, and watery eyes. Dextromethorphan works as a cough suppressant. It works by affecting the signals that are sent to the brain. Phenylephrine shrinks the blood vessels of the nasal passages. Nasal congestion can be caused by dilated blood vessels. Rynex DM, a combination medication, is used to treat allergies, colds, flu, and sneezing. Rynex DM does not treat coughs caused by smoking or asthma. Rynex DM can be used in other ways not mentioned in this guide.
