How Ambrodil S Syrup works

Ambroxol is a mucolytic that thins and loosens mucus. Guaifenesin is an expectorant that helps expel phlegm by increasing airway secretions. Terbutaline is a bronchodilator (beta-2 agonist) that relaxes airway muscles to ease breathing and wheezing.

How to take Ambrodil S Syrup

Take by mouth using a measuring cup/spoon. Usually taken 2-3 times daily or as directed by the doctor; may be taken with or after food to reduce stomach upset. Drink adequate fluids and do not exceed the prescribed dose.

Take it exactly as your doctor prescribed. Do not change the dose or stop early on your own.

Missed dose and overdose

If you miss a dose

Take it as soon as you remember. If your next dose is almost due, skip the one you missed — never take two doses together to catch up.

If you take too much

An overdose of this medicine can cause vomiting, severe drowsiness, a racing heart and, with codeine, dangerously slow breathing. Do not wait for symptoms to appear — go to the nearest emergency department and take the pack or strip with you.
