Versacaps is a decongestant and expectorant combination. Main ingredients are Guaifenesin + Pseudoephedrine HCl.
The
expectorant in Versacaps helps loosen the thick mucus that causes chest
congestion. The decongestant in Versacaps is used to give relief from
stuffy nose, runny nose, and ear congestion caused by allergies and or the
common cold, or infection. Versacaps works by stimulating receptors in the
body, mostly in the lining of the nose and sinuses, causing the blood
vessel to contract. This results in less fluid to pass through into these
linings. Versacaps helps relieve the symptoms of nasal congestion by
reducing the production of mucus. This combination does not cure cold or
allergy; instead it provides relief from the symptoms.
