How it works
Adbrox Syrup contains three active medicines. Each ingredient present in this medicine plays a pivotal role. Ambroxol is a mucolytic that thins and loosens mucus (phlegm), making it easier to cough out. Guaifenesin is an expectorant that decreases the stickiness of the mucus and helps in its removal from the airways. Terbutaline is a bronchodilator that relaxes and widens the muscles in the airways.
Quick Tips
Adbrox Syrup may make your child feel sleepy. Advise your child to be cautious when taking part in physical activities. Do not share your child's medicines with other children, even if they show similar symptoms. Stop Adbrox Syrup and immediately report to the doctor if your child develops an itchy rash, facial swelling, or breathing difficulties. Practice self-care tips: clean and disinfect surfaces after sneezing and coughing, give your child plenty of fluids, restrain your child from having caffeinated products and foods that are spicy and fried, make your child gargle with warm saltwater, and ensure your child takes enough rest.

Frequently asked questions
My child has a cough with no mucus. Can I give Adbrox Syrup?
Adbrox Syrup is not recommended for treating dry coughs. It is intended for the treatment of wet coughs, as it aims to expel mucus from the airway, providing relief from throat irritation, congestion, and soothing effects. For a dry cough, cough suppressants are generally better options. Consult your child's doctor before administering any medication to them.
What if my child takes too much Adbrox Syrup?
Overdosing on Adbrox Syrup can lead to serious side effects, such as seizures, rapid heart rate, and excess salivation. Always administer this medication strictly according to the doctor's prescription for dosage, timing, and administration method. It is also crucial not to stop medication abruptly even if your child begins feeling better. Sudden cessation of this medicine may worsen the condition.
My child has a severe cough. Can I give him two cough medicines together?
It's not recommended to combine more than one cough or cold medicine at once unless specifically advised by your child's doctor. If you have any doubts, it is best to consult with your child's doctor before giving any medication.
Can I give my cough medicine to my child?
Never administer medications intended for adult use to children. Always ensure that the chosen medication is specifically formulated for pediatric use, as this minimizes potential side effects and promotes optimal safety.
How should Adbrox Syrup be stored?
Adbrox Syrup should be stored at room temperature in a dry place, away from direct sunlight and heat sources. It's crucial to keep all medications out of the reach and sight of children to prevent accidental ingestion.
