BetaTan Suspension


Pronunciation: BROME-fen-IR-a-meen/KAR-bay-ta-PEN-tane/FEN-il-EF-rin
Generic Name: Brompheniramine/Carbetapentane/Phenylephrine
Brand Name: Examples include V-Cof and Vazotan


BetaTan Suspension is used for:

Relieving symptoms of sinus congestion, pressure, runny nose, sneezing, and cough due to colds, upper respiratory infections, and allergies. It may also be used for other conditions as determined by your doctor.


BetaTan Suspension is an antihistamine, decongestant, and cough suppressant combination. The antihistamine works by blocking the action of histamine, which helps reduce symptoms such as watery eyes and sneezing. The decongestant promotes sinus and nasal drainage, which relieves congestion and pressure. The cough suppressant works in the brain to help decrease the cough reflex.


Do NOT use BetaTan Suspension if:


  • you are allergic to any ingredient in BetaTan Suspension

  • you have severe high blood pressure, severe heart blood vessel disease, rapid heartbeat, or severe heart problems

  • you take sodium oxybate (GHB) or you have taken furazolidone or a monoamine oxidase inhibitor (MAOI) (eg, phenelzine) within the last 14 days

Contact your doctor or health care provider right away if any of these apply to you.
