It specifically acts on allergies caused in the stomach and intestine, blood vessels and airways leading to the lung. Pseudoephedrine works on alpha-adrenergic receptors to a great extent and alpha-adrenergic receptors to a lesser extent. This drug stimulates beta2-adrenergic receptors and de-stresses bronchial smooth muscle, thereby ameliorating the symptoms of nasal/sinus congestion.
