What is Pelton-C Syrup 120ml?
Pelton-C Syrup 120ml is a prescription combination syrup containing Domperidone Maleate 5mg and Cinnarizine 10mg per 5ml, manufactured by Global Pharmaceuticals. It is used to treat nausea, vomiting, vertigo, dizziness, and motion sickness (چکر آنا، متلی، اور قے) in adults and children. The syrup formulation makes it a convenient option for younger patients or those who cannot take tablets. Domperidone improves stomach emptying and prevents nausea, while Cinnarizine calms overactivity in the inner ear responsible for dizziness and balance disturbances. Together, they address both the gut and vestibular symptoms that commonly occur together.
What is Pelton-C Syrup Used For?
Nausea and Vomiting: Relieves sickness associated with inner ear disorders, gastrointestinal motility problems, and other causes of nausea. Vertigo and Dizziness: Treats dizziness and balance disturbances caused by inner ear disorders and vestibular dysfunction. Motion Sickness: Prevents and relieves nausea and dizziness during travel by car, sea, or air. Gastric Motility Disorders: Manages symptoms of slow stomach emptying including bloating, discomfort, and nausea.
How Does Pelton-C Syrup Work?
Domperidone Maleate blocks dopamine D2 receptors in the chemoreceptor trigger zone of the brain and in the gut, preventing nausea signals and speeding up gastric emptying. Cinnarizine blocks calcium channels in the inner ear blood vessels, improving circulation and reducing the fluid pressure that causes dizziness and vertigo. It also blocks histamine H1 receptors, suppressing the vestibular system's overactivity that triggers motion sickness and balance problems. The combined action of both ingredients provides more complete relief than either ingredient alone.
