Q: What are the uses of AMBRODIL S SYRUP?

Q: How does AMBRODIL S SYRUP work?

A: Ambroxol promotes mucus clearance by decreasing its viscosity and increasing its volume. It facilitates expectoration and eases productive coughing. Salbutamol is a beta-agonist that activates certain receptors called beta-2 adrenergic receptors in the lungs, which facilitates smooth muscle relaxation, makes airways open for easy breathing, and also acts as an anti-inflammatory agent. Together, they help patients with congestion breathe freely and deeply.
