Tuspel Plus SF Syrup Sugar Free is a combination of three medicines. Terbutaline is a bronchodilator. It works by relaxing the muscles in the airways and widens airways. This makes breathing easier. Bromhexine is a mucolytic medication. It thins and loosens mucus (phlegm) in the nose, windpipe, and lungs making it easier to cough out. Ammonium Chloride works by decreasing the stickiness of mucus (phlegm) and helps in its removal from the airways. This is how Tuspel Plus SF Syrup Sugar Free treats cough.
