Ambroxol is a mucolytic/expectorant that breaks down and thins thick mucus in the airways. It improves mucociliary clearance, making it easier to cough out phlegm and breathe better.

How to take Ambrolite Syrup

Take by mouth using a measuring cup/spoon. Usually taken after food; drink plenty of fluids. Dose depends on age and is as directed by the doctor; shake well before use.

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

If you miss a dose

If you miss a dose of Ambrolite Syrup, skip it and continue with your normal schedule. Do not double the dose.

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.

Expert advice for Ambrolite Syrup

Ambrolite Syrup helps in thinning and removal of the mucus (slimy and sticky substance) from the airways, thereby treats various respiratory conditions. Measure the syrup with a special dose-measuring spoon or cup, not a regular table spoon. Do not use Ambrolite Syrup for more than 14 days, without your doctor’s advice. Inform your doctor if you have suffered or are currently suffering from any stomach, liver or kidney problem. Tell your doctor if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant or are breastfeeding.
