Reviews

Marina
    Suffered from a severe allergic reaction to pollen in the spring, for a long time could not pick up the drug. The doctor advised Chloropyramine in ampoules. It helped instantly, there were no side effects. Now I drink pills. Previously, gasped as the whole sky swelled, it became difficult to breathe. New drug made it feel all the colors of spring.
Irina
    This drug helped me partially. The secretions on the mucous decreased, it became easier to breathe. But the action of the drug was enough for less than a day, it had to be taken quite often. In addition, there was an unpleasant dryness on the nasal mucosa. Simultaneously with the preparation, it was used to wash the nasal mucosa with a light saline solution. Perhaps it is precisely in my body that such an ambiguous reaction to the drug.
Maksim
    The injection saved my friend, after a bee sting at the dacha, a strong allergic reaction arose, the edema prevented him from breathing normally, we were afraid that the ambulance would not have time. In the first-aid kit there was a drug in ampoules, it was bought just in case. We urgently made an injection. A friend came to himself, the ambulance doctors said that the bill then went on for a minute.
