Ambroxol Hydrochloride+guaiphenesin+terbutaline Sulphate+menthol Combination medicine used in productive cough that accompanies bronchial asthma, bronchiectasis, chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases (COPD), bronchitis (inflammation of bronchial tubes), and emphysema (shortness of breath). Coughing, either dry or productive, is the body’s attempt to expel irritants such as allergens, mucus, or smoke from the airways, thereby preventing infection.
Ambroxol Hydrochloride+guaiphenesin+terbutaline Sulphate+menthol Composition includes Ambroxol hydrochloride, Terbutaline sulfate, Guaiphenesin, and Menthol. Ambroxol hydrochloride is a mucolytic agent which decreases the viscosity of sputum making it easy to cough up. Terbutaline sulfate is a bronchodilator that relaxes and opens airways in the lungs. Guaiphenesin is an expectorant that decreases the thickness/viscosity of bronchial secretions (phlegm) enhances the flow of mucus and hence makes it easier to cough. Menthol relieves the irritation in the throat.
Medicinal Benefits:-

Ambroxol hydrochloride acts as a mucolytic agent to liquefy the sputum that is going to be coughed out and it is thus easily expelled by coughing. Terbutaline sulfate is a bronchodilator. It helps widen and relax the airways of the lungs (bronchi). Guaiphenesin is an expectorant; it thins or liquefies the sputum to some extent thus improving the sputum flow to make its coughing out easy. Menthol formulates a sensation of coolness and relieves throat irritation.
