Axalin Expectorant 60 ml

Axalin Expectorant is a combination medication used to treat a productive cough associated with bronchial asthma, bronchiectasis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), bronchitis (inflammation of bronchial tubes), and emphysema (shortness of breath). Coughing (dry or productive) is the body's way of clearing irritants (like allergens, mucus or smoke) from airways and preventing infection.

Axalin Expectorant consists of Ambroxol hydrochloride, Terbutaline sulphate, Guaiphenesin, and Menthol. Ambroxol hydrochloride is a mucolytic agent that makes sputum less viscous, making it easier to cough out. Terbutaline sulphate is a bronchodilator that works by widening and relaxing the airways of the lungs. Guaiphenesin is an expectorant that reduces the thickness/viscosity of bronchial secretions (phlegm) and increases mucus flow, making coughing easier. Menthol relieves throat irritation.

Your doctor will decide the dose and duration of the course based on the severity of your condition. In some cases, Axalin Expectorant may cause common side effects like nausea, diarrhoea, vomiting, stomach discomfort, sweating, muscle cramps, dizziness, and headache. These side effects do not require medical attention and can be resolved over time. However, if the side effects persist, contact your doctor.

Let your doctor know if you have any allergic reactions to Axalin Expectorant or any other medication. Inform your doctor if you have heart, liver, kidney diseases, stomach ulcers, seizures (fits), high blood pressure, thyroid disorders, diabetes, inflammation of air passages, lung disorders, and difficulty breathing before taking Axalin Expectorant. Check with your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Avoid alcohol while taking Axalin Expectorant, since it can worsen side effects like dizziness and sleepiness.

• Axalin Expectorant should be taken with or without food. • It is recommended to take Axalin Expectorant as advised by your doctor. • Measure the prescribed dose using the measuring cup provided with the pack and administer it orally. • Check the label for directions before using it. Shake the bottle well before each use. Avoid using regular household spoons, as they may not measure the dose correctly.

Axalin Expectorant contains Ambroxol hydrochloride, Terbutaline sulphate, Guaiphenesin, and Menthol. Ambroxol hydrochloride is a mucolytic agent that makes sputum less viscous, making it easier to cough out. Terbutaline sulphate is a bronchodilator which works by widening and relaxing the airways (bronchi) of the lungs. Guaiphenesin is an expectorant that reduces the thickness/viscosity of bronchial secretions (phlegm) and increases mucus flow making it easier to cough. Menthol produces a sensation of coolness and relieves throat irritation.

Axalin Expectorant should be used with caution in patients with heart, liver, kidney diseases, fits, stomach ulcers, high blood pressure, thyroid disorders, inflammation of air passages, lung disorders, and difficulty breathing. If you have diabetes, let your doctor know since Axalin Expectorant may affect blood sugar levels. Using Axalin Expectorant with painkillers like aspirin can damage the gastro mucosal barrier (protects the stomach from the attack of acid); hence Axalin Expectorant should be cautiously administered in patients with a stomach ulcer. Pregnant and breastfeeding women should use Axalin Expectorant with proper consultation and caution. Avoid consuming alcohol with Axalin Expectorant as it could lead to increased drowsiness or dizziness. Do not drive if you feel sleepy or have an increased heart rate or shakiness after taking Axalin Expectorant.
