Asthakind-LS Junior Syrup contains three active ingredients:

• Levosalbutamol (0.5mg): This component is a selective beta2-adrenergic agonist and bronchodilator. It relaxes the smooth muscles of your child's bronchial airways by stimulating beta2-receptors, thereby increasing the diameter of the airways, reducing airflow resistance and easing bronchospasm.

• Ambroxol (15mg): Known as a mucolytic agent, ambroxol reduces the thickness of mucus secretions in your child's respiratory tract. It does this by disrupting the structure of acid mucopolysaccharide fibres in the mucus, making it thinner and less sticky. This aids mucus clearance by ciliary action and coughing. In addition, ambroxol has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties.

• Guaifenesin (50mg): As an expectorant, guaifenesin works by increasing the volume and reducing the thickness of secretions in your child's respiratory tract. It stimulates cholinergic receptors in the bronchial glands, boosting mucus secretion. This increased volume of mucus helps soothe the irritated respiratory tract and promotes more productive coughing.

  Through their combined mucolytic, expectorant, and bronchodilator actions, these ingredients help make your child's cough more productive and provide effective relief from chest congestion.

• Store Asthakind-LS Junior Syrup not exceeding 30°C to maintain its effectiveness.

• Protect the syrup from direct sunlight to prevent any damage to it.

• Keep the bottle sealed when not in use to avoid exposure to air.

• Ensure the medicine is kept out of the reach of children for their safety.

• Encourage your child to drink plenty of fluids. Hydration can help thin and loosen mucus, making it easier for your child's body to clear it from the lungs.

• Reduce exposure to allergens like dust and smoke that can aggravate respiratory conditions. This can help manage symptoms and enhance the effectiveness of Asthakind-LS Junior Syrup.
