Ambroxol + Guaifenesin + Levosalbutamol / Levalbuterol is a combination medicine that manages respiratory conditions.
Ambroxol acts as a mucolytic agent. It thins and loosens mucus in the airways, which makes it easier to cough out and clear the airways.
Guaifenesin is an expectorant. It works by increasing the output of mucus and bronchial secretions, reducing their stickiness and surface tension. This promotes mucus removal from the airways through coughing.
Levosalbutamol / Levalbuterol is a bronchodilator. It relaxes and widens the airways' muscles, making breathing easier.
