FAQs:

• What is Zophex LS Syrup?
  Zophex LS Syrup is a combination medication that contains three active ingredients: ambroxol, levosalbutamol/levalbuterol, and guaifenesin. It is used to treat coughs with mucus production. Ambroxol helps thin and loosen mucus, making it easier to cough up. Levosalbutamol is a bronchodilator that relaxes airway muscles and widens airways. Guaifenesin is an expectorant that reduces the stickiness of mucus and facilitates its removal from the airways.
