Xiorisin

A drug created and manufactured by Advancer Enterprises, it entered Advancer's pharmaceutical catalog in late YE 45. Xiorisin is a readily available over-the-counter medication known for its antitussive properties.

Xiorisin was developed to fill a gap in the market for effective, yet affordable, over-the-counter cough medications. The project was spearheaded by Advancer's Advanced Medical Division, with input from the Service Division to ensure the drug would be customer-friendly and easily accessible. After a series of clinical trials and consumer feedback sessions, the drug was launched in YE 45. Xiorisin embodies Advancer's commitment to providing high-quality healthcare solutions that are both innovative and accessible to the general public.

Xiorisin is administered orally and comes in a liquid form with a concentration of 10mg/ml. The standard adult dosage is 20mg, equivalent to 2ml of the liquid, taken every 4-6 hours as needed. The drug acts by inhibiting the cough reflex at the central nervous system level, providing relief from incessant coughing. This is particularly beneficial during nighttime, when symptoms often exacerbate, allowing for restful sleep. It is suitable for treating coughs resulting from a variety of respiratory illnesses, including the common cold and influenza.

While generally safe when used as directed, Xiorisin does have some side effects. The most common include drowsiness, dizziness, and dry mouth. In rare instances, the drug can act as a weak analgesic, which has led to its occasional misuse as a recreational substance. Given these potential risks, Advancer Enterprises advises responsible usage and adherence to the recommended dosage, aligning with their philosophy of customer well-being and responsible medical practice.

Overdosing on Xiorisin is a serious medical concern. The overdose threshold is approximately 200mg, or 20ml of the liquid, which is 10 times the standard dose. Symptoms of overdose include severe respiratory and CNS depression. Immediate medical intervention is crucial and may involve respiratory support and the administration of reversal agents to counteract the drug's effects.
