What is Promethazine DM?

Promethazine DM is a generic combination drug prescribed to relieve cough, runny nose, stuffy nose, sneezing, and other symptoms caused by the common cold or allergies. It is a prescription medicine that combines an antihistamine called promethazine with a cough suppressant called dextromethorphan.

Promethazine is an antihistamine that works by blocking the effects of histamine, a substance produced by the immune system in response to an allergen. Exposure to an allergen may cause symptoms such as runny nose, congestion, and sneezing.

Dextromethorphan is an opioid-like drug similar to codeine that calms the cough reflex. Unlike opioids, however, dextromethorphan does not relieve pain or produce other effects of opioids, making it a much safer drug for suppressing cough.

Promethazine DM is usually administered as one-half to one teaspoon of syrup once every four to six hours. The dosage can vary depending on an individual’s age, as children typically take a lower dose than adults. It’s important to follow the instructions and medical advice of a healthcare provider for the appropriate dosage to take.
