FAQ
How do Dolvan Tablets work?
Dolvan Tablets contain four effective ingredients. Paracetamol is an analgesic (painkiller) that helps bring down your temperature due to fever. Caffeine helps enhance the pain-relieving effects of paracetamol and increases alertness. Diphenhydramine (an antihistamine) alleviates itching, and pain, and reduces mucus production. Ephedrine (a decongestant) diminishes swelling in the passages of your nose, allowing you to breathe more effortlessly.
