Terbutaline + Ambroxol + Guaiphenesin — Uses and Benefits

This medicine is used to treat cough that occurs along with wheezing, breathlessness and chest congestion, commonly seen in bronchitis, asthma and other airway conditions where mucus builds up and airways narrow.

WHAT THIS MEDICINE IS USED FOR

• Cough with difficulty in breathing

HOW IT WORKS

• Together they help you breathe more easily and cough out mucus more effectively

WHAT IT IS NOT USED FOR

• Dry cough without mucus or congestion
• Cough due to allergies alone without airway narrowing
