DISOPHROL is an oral tablet combining dexbrompheniramine maleate (first-generation antihistamine) and pseudoephedrine sulfate (nasal decongestant) for symptomatic relief of allergic rhinitis and upper respiratory congestion. It targets nasal congestion, sinus swelling, runny nose, sneezing, and itching associated with hay fever and the common cold. The antihistamine blocks H1 receptors to reduce allergic inflammation while the decongestant causes vasoconstriction to relieve nasal passage swelling.
