What is Visvex

Visvex is a combination of brompheniramine, hydrocodone and pseudoephedrine that is beneficial for treating cough, sneezing, itching, watery eyes, runny nose, stuffy nose and sinus congestion caused by allergies, the common cold or the flu. Decongestants help to ease stuffy nose symptoms. A narcotic cough suppressant (antitussive) influences a certain part of the brain, lowering the urge to cough. Antihistamines ease watery eyes, itchy eyes/nose/throat, runny nose and sneezing.
