Product Description
Salbutamol + Guaifenesin capsules are a combination medication used to treat respiratory disorders characterized by bronchospasm (narrowing of the airways) and excessive mucus production.
How the Combination Works:
- Salbutamol (Albuterol): This is a bronchodilator, meaning it relaxes the muscles in the airways, widening them and making breathing easier.
- Guaifenesin (Glyceryl Guaiacolate): This is an expectorant, which works by thinning and loosening mucus, making it easier to cough up.
Uses:
This combination medication is typically used to treat:
- Bronchial asthma: A chronic respiratory condition causing inflammation and narrowing of the airways.
- Chronic bronchitis: A long-term condition causing inflammation and mucus buildup in the airways.
- Emphysema: A lung disease that damages the air sacs in the lungs, making it difficult to breathe.
- Other bronchopulmonary diseases: Conditions affecting the airways and lungs, often accompanied by coughing and excessive mucus.
Dosage:
The recommended dosage varies depending on age and individual needs. Typically, adults and children over 12 take 1-2 capsules two to three times daily. Children aged 6-12 should take 1 capsule two to three times daily. It's crucial to follow your doctor's instructions regarding dosage and frequency.
Important Precautions:
- Allergic Reactions: If you are allergic to any of the ingredients, do not take this medication.
- Pregnancy and Breastfeeding: Consult your doctor before taking this medication
