Ambrodil Xp Cap

Capsule

Relief of productive cough and chest congestion associated with bronchitis, asthma, COPD and other respiratory tract infections where mucus is thick and difficult to expel.

Ambroxol is a mucolytic that thins and loosens mucus and improves its clearance from the airways. Guaifenesin is an expectorant that increases bronchial secretions and helps expel phlegm. Terbutaline is a beta-2 agonist bronchodilator that relaxes airway smooth muscles to ease breathing and reduce wheeze.

Take the capsule orally with water as prescribed by the doctor, usually after food. Swallow whole; do not crush or chew. Maintain adequate fluid intake to help loosen mucus.

Nausea, vomiting, stomach upset, diarrhea, dry mouth, headache, dizziness, tremor, palpitations, nervousness, rash

Use with caution in heart disease, arrhythmias, hypertension, hyperthyroidism, diabetes, seizure disorders, and in patients with history of peptic ulcer. May cause tremor, dizziness or palpitations—avoid driving if affected. Seek medical help if breathing worsens, severe rash/allergy occurs, or symptoms persist beyond a few days. Not for self-medication in children unless prescribed.

Beta-blockers (may reduce terbutaline effect), other sympathomimetics (increased side effects), MAO inhibitors/tricyclic antidepressants (may increase cardiovascular effects), diuretics/corticosteroids/xanthines like theophylline (risk of hypokalemia), digoxin (arrhythmia risk with low potassium), antitussives like codeine/dextromethorphan (may impair mucus clearance)

Store below 25°C in a cool, dry place. Protect from moisture and light. Keep out of reach of children.
