Astagon Tablet is a combination of three medicines. Bromhexine is a mucolytic medication that thins and loosens mucus in the nose, windpipe, and lungs, making it easier to cough out. Chlorpheniramine Maleate is an antiallergic medication that works by blocking the action of histamine, thereby relieving symptoms of allergy. Ephedrine is a sympathomimetic agent that acts as a bronchodilator and decongestant, compressing blood vessels to keep the airway passage clear for easy breathing.
