Relief of productive (wet) cough, chest congestion with thick mucus, cough associated with bronchitis, tracheobronchitis and other lower respiratory tract conditions with mucus

Levosalbutamol is a beta-2 agonist that relaxes airway smooth muscles and helps relieve bronchospasm. Ambroxol is a mucolytic that reduces mucus viscosity and improves clearance. Guaifenesin is an expectorant that increases hydration of secretions, making cough more productive and easing congestion.

Use as directed by the physician. Measure with a dosing cup/spoon; usually taken orally 2–3 times daily. Can be taken with or without food; taking after food may reduce stomach upset. Shake well before use and ensure adequate fluid intake.

Nausea, vomiting, stomach upset, diarrhea, headache, dizziness, tremor, palpitations, nervousness, throat irritation, rash

For children, use only on medical advice and do not exceed recommended dose. Use with caution in asthma requiring frequent bronchodilator use, heart disease/arrhythmias, hypertension, hyperthyroidism, diabetes, seizure disorders, and in kidney/liver impairment. Stop and seek medical help if severe allergic reaction, worsening breathing, persistent fever, or cough lasts >1 week. Not for dry cough without mucus unless advised by a doctor.

Beta-blockers (may reduce effect of levosalbutamol), other sympathomimetics (increased side effects), MAO inhibitors or tricyclic antidepressants (increased cardiovascular effects), diuretics or corticosteroids (risk of low potassium with beta-agonists), digoxin (arrhythmia risk with hypokalemia)
