ALKOFF ORANGE SYP

Description

Alkof Orange Syrup is manufactured by Alkem Laboratories Ltd and is commonly prescribed to alleviate symptoms of productive coughs and respiratory congestion. The active ingredients in the syrup include:

• Bromhexine (2 mg): A mucolytic agent that thins and loosens mucus in the airways, making it easier to expel.

• Guaifenesin (50 mg): An expectorant that helps in clearing mucus from the airways.

• Menthol (0.5 mg): Provides a soothing and cooling effect on the throat, alleviating irritation.

• Terbutaline (1.25 mg): A bronchodilator that relaxes the muscles around the airways, widening them to improve airflow.

This combination of ingredients makes Alkof Orange Syrup effective in treating conditions such as bronchitis, asthma, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) by reducing mucus viscosity, promoting its expulsion, and easing breathing.

Dosage: The syrup should be taken as prescribed by a healthcare professional. Typically, it is administered orally using the provided measuring cup. Dosage may vary based on age, weight, and the severity of symptoms.

Side Effects: Common side effects may include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, dizziness, drowsiness, and headache. If any of these effects persist or worsen, consult your healthcare provider.

Precautions: Before using Alkof Orange Syrup, inform your doctor if you have any allergies, are pregnant or breastfeeding, or have any pre-existing medical conditions such as heart disease, diabetes, or thyroid disorders. Avoid alcohol consumption during treatment, as it may enhance drowsiness.
