How it works
Norvent Expectorant contains three active medicines: Ambroxol, Guaifenesin, and Terbutaline. Each ingredient plays a pivotal role in treating wet cough. Ambroxol is a mucolytic that thins and loosens mucus, making it easier to cough out. Guaifenesin is an expectorant that decreases the stickiness of mucus and helps in its removal from the airways. Terbutaline is a bronchodilator that relaxes and widens the muscles in the airways.
Quick Tips
Norvent Expectorant 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 Norvent Expectorant 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.

Do not administer more than one cough or cold medicine at a time unless advised by your child's doctor. In case of uncertainty, consult your child's doctor before administering any medication to your child.
