Pheoxia

Pheoxia (phenylephrine) is a sympathomimetic decongestant used primarily to relieve nasal congestion due to colds, allergies, and sinusitis. It works by constricting blood vessels in the nasal passages, leading to reduced swelling and improved airflow. Pheoxia is available in various formulations, including oral tablets, nasal sprays, and liquid forms.

Comprehensive Drug Guide

How Does Pheoxia Work?

Pheoxia works primarily as an alpha-1 adrenergic receptor agonist. When administered, it stimulates these receptors in the smooth muscle of blood vessels, resulting in vasoconstriction. This action leads to decreased blood flow to the nasal mucosa, reducing swelling and congestion.
