Macphylline Syrup is primarily used to manage respiratory conditions such as asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and bronchitis. This medicine is part of a group known as bronchodilators.
In addition to its primary use, this syrup can also help prevent asthma attacks triggered by exercise, allergens or smoke exposure. It can relieve symptoms of bronchitis by clearing airway congestion and relaxing the airways, and aid in managing COPD by opening up the airways and reducing symptoms like chest tightness, breathlessness, wheezing and cough. However, it's worth noting that this Syrup is designed for long-term prevention and control of these symptoms rather than providing immediate relief during an acute breathing emergency.
Before you start using this medicine, consult your doctor who will determine the appropriate dosage and frequency for you. Inform your doctor about any pre-existing conditions or any other ongoing medication that you are on. If you notice any side effects while on this medicine, notify your doctor immediately. Continue taking the syrup for the duration prescribed by your doctor for optimal results.
