Uses

Treatment of Cough with mucus

Benefits

In Cough: Zerotuss Xp either loosens the mucus so a chesty cough clears it more easily, or settles the reflex behind a dry, tickly cough, depending on the type you have been given.
In Chest congestion: Zerotuss Xp thins thick mucus in the chest so it can be coughed up, easing the heaviness and rattling and helping you breathe more freely.
In Common cold symptoms: Zerotuss Xp relieves the blocked nose, cough and congestion of a cold so you can rest and get on with your day while the infection runs its course.
In Asthma: Zerotuss Xp opens the airways or calms the inflammation inside them, depending on its type, so breathing is easier and attacks are fewer. Delivered straight into the lungs, it works where it is needed with very little reaching the rest of the body.
In Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease: Zerotuss Xp relaxes the airways so that air moves in and out more easily, reducing breathlessness and letting you walk further and do more before you have to stop.

Side effects

Most side effects of Zerotuss Xp are mild and settle as the body gets used to the medicine. The ones reported most often are:

Nausea
Vomiting
Stomach upset
Drowsiness

Stop the medicine and get help at once for a rash, swelling of the face or lips, wheezing or difficulty breathing. Tell your doctor about any side effect that persists or worries you.

How to use

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. Zerotuss XP Syrup may be taken with or without food.

How it works

Zerotuss XP Syrup 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.

Warnings & 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.

Missed dose and overdose

If you miss a dose

If you miss a dose of Zerotuss XP Syrup, 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.
