R-Tannamine

Main Ingredients: Chlorpheniramine Tannate +Pyrilamine Tannate + Phenylephrine Tannate

R-Tannamine is the combination of antihistamine and decongestant (pseudoephedrine) given to treat and relieve symptoms of seasonal allergies, common cold and flu as well as upper respiratory tract.

The antihistamine in R-Tannamine relieves the symptoms of seasonal allergies and hay fever such as itchy, runny nose, sneezing, and watery eyes as well as symptoms of allergic reactions like hives or swelling. The decongestant (pseudoephedrine) in R-Tannamine deals with constricting the blood vessels, which in turn reduces the blood, flow to the nasal passages thereby improving the flow of air and reducing nasal secretions.

CAUTION

Use caution when using R-Tannamine if you have high blood pressure, diabetes, heart disease, prostate problems, or hyperthyroidism as it contains the decongestant pseudoephedrine.

Avoid R-Tannamine if you have severe high blood pressure, glaucoma, or kidney disease.

Avoid taking R-Tannamine within 2 weeks of using an MAO-inhibitor.
