Bromhist-DM Syrup

Pronunciation: brome-fen-IR-a-meen/DEX-troe-meth-OR-fan/gwye-FEN-e-sin/SOO-doe-e-FED-rin
Generic Name: Brompheniramine/Dextromethorphan/Guaifenesin/Pseudoephedrine
Brand Name: Bromhist-DM

Bromhist-DM Syrup is used for:

Relieving symptoms of sinus congestion, runny nose, sneezing, itchy nose or throat, itchy or watery eyes, and cough due to colds, upper respiratory infections, and allergies. It may also be used for other conditions as determined by your doctor.

Bromhist-DM Syrup is an antihistamine, decongestant, cough suppressant, and expectorant combination. The decongestant works by constricting blood vessels and reducing swelling in the nasal passages. The expectorant works by loosening mucus and lung secretions in the chest, making coughs more productive. The antihistamine works by blocking the action of histamine, which helps reduce symptoms such as watery eyes and sneezing. The cough suppressant works in the brain to help decrease the cough reflex to reduce a dry cough.

Do NOT use Bromhist-DM Syrup if:

• you are allergic to any ingredient in Bromhist-DM Syrup


• you have severe high blood pressure, severe heart blood vessel disease, a rapid heartbeat, or severe heart problems


• you are unable to urinate or are having an asthma attack


• you take droxidopa, sodium oxybate (GHB), or if you have taken furazolidone or a monoamine oxidase inhibitor (MAOI) (eg, phenelzine) within the last 14 days

Contact your doctor or health care provider right away if any of these apply to you.
