Asthalin Plus Strawberry And Raspberry Expectorant

Drug | Syrup

Productive cough with thick mucus, chest congestion, wheezing/bronchospasm associated with bronchitis, asthma or COPD

Levosalbutamol is a selective beta-2 agonist that relaxes airway smooth muscles to relieve bronchospasm and wheeze. Ambroxol thins and breaks down mucus, while guaifenesin increases hydration of secretions and helps expel phlegm.

Oral syrup/expectorant. Take exactly as prescribed; measure with a dosing cup/spoon. Can be taken with or without food; taking after food may reduce stomach upset. Maintain adequate fluid intake; do not exceed recommended dose.

Nausea, vomiting, stomach upset, diarrhoea, headache, dizziness, tremor, nervousness, palpitations, muscle cramps, throat irritation, rash

Use with caution in heart disease, high blood pressure, arrhythmias, hyperthyroidism, diabetes, seizure disorders and glaucoma. May cause tremor, dizziness or palpitations—avoid driving if affected. Seek medical help if breathing worsens, chest pain occurs, or symptoms persist beyond a few days. Not for dry cough without mucus unless advised by a doctor.

Beta-blockers (may reduce effect), other sympathomimetics/bronchodilators (additive side effects), MAO inhibitors or tricyclic antidepressants (increased cardiovascular effects), diuretics or corticosteroids (risk of low potassium), digoxin (arrhythmia risk with hypokalaemia)
