Generic Name: brompheniramine, hydrocodone, and pseudoephedrine (brom fen EER a meen, hye droe KOE dohn, soo doe e FED rin)
Brand Names: Anaplex HD, Bromcomp HC, Bromph HD, Bromplex HD, BroveX HC, Drocon-CS, Endacof HC, J-Tan D HC, M-END, SymTan A, Visvex
Brompheniramine is an antihistamine that reduces the natural chemical histamine in the body. Histamine can produce symptoms of sneezing, itching, watery eyes, and runny nose.
Hydrocodone is in a group of drugs called narcotics and is similar to codeine. Hydrocodone is a cough suppressant that affects the signals in the brain that trigger cough reflex.
Pseudoephedrine is a decongestant that shrinks blood vessels in the nasal passages. Dilated blood vessels can cause nasal congestion (stuffy nose).
The combination of brompheniramine, hydrocodone, and pseudoephedrine is used to treat cough, sneezing, itching, watery eyes, runny nose, stuffy nose, and sinus congestion caused by allergies, the common cold, or the flu.
Brompheniramine, hydrocodone, and pseudoephedrine may also be used for other purposes not listed in this medication guide.
Before taking brompheniramine, hydrocodone, and pseudoephedrine, tell your doctor if you are allergic to any drugs, or if you have:

This medication can cause you to have unusual results with allergy skin tests. Tell any doctor who treats you that you are taking an antihistamine.
