About Broncocet 100Ml Syp

Broncocet 100Ml Syp is used to treat asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Broncocet 100Ml Syp helps to relieve symptoms like coughing, wheezing and shortness of breath. Asthma is a breathing problem in which airways narrow, swell and produce extra mucus, leading to difficulty breathing. COPD is a group of lung diseases with emphysema (shortness of breath) and chronic bronchitis (inflammation of the lining of your bronchial tubes).

Broncocet 100Ml Syp contains 'Salbutamol,' which is a β₂ adrenergic receptor agonist. It relaxes the muscles in the airways and increases airflow to the lungs. Broncocet 100Ml Syp makes breathing easier by widening the airways.

Your doctor will advise on how often you take Broncocet 100Ml Syp based on your medical condition. The common side effects of Broncocet 100Ml Syp include nausea, vomiting, restlessness, tremor (shakiness), headache, muscle tightness, dryness or soreness of the throat, dizziness, sleepiness, palpitations (irregular heartbeat), nasal congestion (stuffy nose), cough, and increased heart rate. Most of these side effects of Broncocet 100Ml Syp do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects are persistent, please seek medical help.

Brief your medical history if you have any heart, liver or kidney diseases, hyperthyroidism (overactive thyroid), stomach ulcer, seizure (fits), high blood pressure and diabetes before taking Broncocet 100Ml Syp. Bronchodilators like Broncocet 100Ml Syp can cause a rise in blood sugar levels. Hence, diabetic patients should monitor their blood glucose levels and use this medicine only with a doctor's advice. Bronchodilators also cause hypokalaemia (low potassium levels in the blood) in some patients, leading to severe heart diseases, so Broncocet 100Ml Syp should be cautiously administered. Please check with your doctor if you are pregnant, currently breastfeeding, or taking any other prescribed or non-prescribed medicines. Avoid drinking alcohol while taking Broncocet 100Ml Syp as it can worsen your sleepiness. Try not to stop taking this medicine of your own.
