Chlorpheniramine may cause drowsiness, dizziness, and coordination issues, which can be significant in long-term therapy, potentially impacting daily activities.
Long-term use of Chlorpheniramine can lead to neurological effects such as confusion, memory lapses, and decreased alertness, especially in elderly patients.
For patients on long-term chlorpheniramine therapy, common neurological side effects include sedation and impaired cognitive function, which may influence their ability to operate machinery.
