Uses of Phrintec Injection

Benefits of Phrintec Injection

In Low blood pressure

Phrintec Injection is used in adults and children to relieve low blood pressure which may occur during an operation or after an injury. It is injected by a doctor or a nurse into a vein (intravenously), a muscle (intramuscularly), or directly under the skin (subcutaneously). Its effectiveness depends on the way it is administered and the effect may last from 20 minutes to 2 hours. This medicine helps to bring back the blood pressure within normal range and therefore prevents any serious complications that might have otherwise followed.

In Common cold

Phrintec Injection is a combination medicine that effectively relieves symptoms of the common cold, such as a blocked nose, runny nose, watery eyes, sneezing, and congestion or stuffiness. It helps loosen thick mucus, making it easier to cough out. It also shrinks the blood vessels and provides rapid relief that lasts for several hours. These actions make breathing easier.

Phrintec Injection is safe and effective. It usually starts to work within a few minutes, and the effects can last up to several hours. Take it as prescribed by your doctor, and do not stop using it unless you are advised otherwise.

How to use Phrintec Injection

Your doctor or nurse will give you this medicine. Kindly do not self administer.

How Phrintec Injection works

Phrintec Injection is an blood-pressure increasing medication. It works on the receptors on blood vessels and causes them to contract and narrow. This raises the low blood pressure.
