Ambroxol (20mg/5ml) + Guaifenesin (50mg/5ml) + Terbutaline (1.25mg/5ml) — Uses and Benefits

This medicine is commonly used to treat cough with thick mucus that is linked with breathing difficulty, wheezing or chest tightness, such as in bronchitis, asthma and other airway conditions.

WHAT THIS MEDICINE IS USED FOR

• Cough with mucus (productive cough)
• Cough associated with wheezing or breathlessness
• Chest congestion due to bronchitis or other airway conditions

HOW IT WORKS

• Ambroxol thins and loosens mucus so it can be coughed out more easily
• Guaifenesin increases fluid in the airways, helping clear thick mucus
• Terbutaline relaxes the muscles around the airways, widening them and easing breathing

WHAT IT IS NOT USED FOR

• Dry cough without mucus
• Cough due to common cold alone, unless advised by a doctor
• Long-term control of asthma (it only relieves symptoms, does not treat the underlying disease)
• Self-treatment of unexplained or long-standing breathlessness without medical evaluation
