Composition of Macbery Junior

Macbery Junior contains Ambroxol (15mg/5ml) + Levosalbutamol (0.5mg/5ml) + Guaifenesin (50mg/5ml). It belongs to the Expectorant / mucolytic / bronchodilator and Inhaled bronchodilator / corticosteroid class of medicines.

Uses of Macbery Junior

Treatment of Cough with mucus

Key benefits

  • In Treatment of Cough with mucus A cough with mucus occurs when thick secretions block the airways
  • causing breathing difficulty and frequent coughing. Macbery Junior Expectorant loosens mucus
  • promotes its removal
  • and opens the airways. This helps reduce cough
  • clear congestion
  • and make breathing easier.

How Macbery Junior works

Macbery Junior Expectorant is a combination of three medicines: ambroxol, levosalbutamol, and guaifenesin. Ambroxol is a mucolytic that thins and loosens mucus in the airways, making it easier to cough up. Levosalbutamol is a bronchodilator that relaxes the muscles around the airways, helping open them and making breathing easier. Guaifenesin is an expectorant that helps clear mucus from the airways by making it thinner and less sticky, promoting its removal through coughing. Together, these medicines help reduce mucus buildup, ease breathing, and relieve cough associated with mucus.

How to take Macbery Junior

Take this medicine in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Check the label for directions before use. Measure it with a measuring cup and take it by mouth. Shake well before use. Macbery Junior Expectorant may be taken with or without food.

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 Macbery Junior Expectorant, take it as soon as possible. However, if it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and go back to your regular 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. It can cause a racing heart, marked tremor, headache and a fall in blood potassium. Do not wait for symptoms to appear — go to the nearest emergency department and take the pack or strip with you.

Warnings and precautions

See a doctor if a cough lasts more than a week, or comes with fever, breathlessness, chest pain or blood in the sputum. Do not give cough and cold preparations to young children except on a doctor's advice. Do not combine two cough preparations — they frequently contain the same ingredients, and the doses add up. Preparations containing codeine can cause dependence and must be used only for the period your doctor specifies. Know which of your inhalers is the reliever and which is the preventer. A preventer must be used every day even when you feel well; a reliever is for symptoms. Seek emergency care if your reliever is not working, if you cannot speak a full sentence, or if you are using the reliever far more often than usual. Rinse your mouth with water and spit it out after every steroid inhaler dose to prevent thrush and hoarseness. Ask your doctor or pharmacist to watch your technique — poor technique is the commonest reason an inhaler seems not to work. Use a spacer if one has been advised, particularly for children.

Do not take Macbery Junior if

Not for anyone with a known allergy to this medicine or to any ingredient in the pack. Codeine-containing preparations are not for children, or for anyone with breathing difficulty. Not for anyone with a known allergy to the propellant used in the inhaler.

Interactions with other medicines

Sedating ingredients add to the effect of alcohol and sleeping tablets. Decongestants such as phenylephrine and pseudoephedrine can raise blood pressure — tell your doctor if you are hypertensive. Beta blockers, including eye drops for glaucoma, can tighten the airways and reduce the effect of your reliever.

How to store Macbery Junior

Store below 30°C in the original pack, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Keep out of the reach of children.

Expert advice for Macbery Junior

Macbery Junior Expectorant is used to relieve cough with mucus by thinning and clearing phlegm from the airways. Drink plenty of fluids while taking Macbery Junior Expectorant, as this helps loosen mucus and improves its effect. Macbery Junior Expectorant is not meant for dry cough (cough without mucus). Macbery Junior Expectorant may cause dizziness or sleepiness. Do not drive or operate machinery until you know how it affects you. Stop taking Macbery Junior Expectorant and contact your doctor if you develop severe palpitations, chest discomfort, tremors, or a very fast heartbeat. Inform your doctor if you have heart disease, high blood pressure, thyroid disorders, or diabetes before taking Macbery Junior Expectorant.
