Ambroxol + Guaifenesin + Levosalbutamol + Menthol is a combination medicine specially formulated to manage cough and congestion.
Ambroxol, being a mucolytic, breaks down complex mucopolysaccharides in the mucus, reducing its thickness and stickiness. This action promotes mucus clearance from the airways.
Guaifenesin is an expectorant that increases the secretion of less viscous mucus in the airways, making it easier to cough up and remove lung mucus.
Levosalbutamol, a bronchodilator, stimulates the beta-2 receptors in the lungs. This causes relaxation of bronchial smooth muscles, enhancing airflow into the lungs and relieving shortness of breath.
Menthol works by activating cold receptors in the nose and throat, providing a cooling sensation which temporarily soothes cough and sore throat symptoms.
The combined action of all these components effectively manages cough and congestion associated with colds, bronchitis, and other respiratory conditions.
