Asthaphat Expectorant
PRODUCT DETAILS
About Asthaphat Expectorant
SALBUTAMOL+GUAIFENESIN belongs to the class of medications called expectorants primarily used to treat cough. Coughing (dry or productive) is a body’s way of clearing irritants (like allergens, mucus or smoke) from airways and preventing infection. There are two types of coughs, namely: dry cough and chesty cough. A dry cough is tickly and doesn't produce any vicious or thick mucus, while a chesty cough (wet cough) means mucous or sputum is produced to help clear your airways.
SALBUTAMOL+GUAIFENESIN is a combination of two drugs, namely: Salbutamol (bronchodilator) and Guaifenesin (expectorant). Salbutamol belongs to the class of bronchodilators that relaxes muscles and widens the airways. Thereby, it makes breathing easier. Guaifenesin belongs to the class of expectorants that works by increasing the volume of fluid in the airways, reduce the stickiness of mucus and helps to remove it from airways.
