Key Benefits
Ascoril Plus Expectorant 120 ml is a combination of four drugs, namely: Bromhexine hydrochloride (mucolytic agent), Guaifenesin (expectorant), Menthol (cooling agent) and Terbutaline sulphate (bronchodilator). Bromhexine hydrochloride belongs to the class of mucolytic agents (cough/sputum thinner) that works by thinning and loosening phlegm (mucus) in the lungs, windpipe and nose, making it easier to cough it out. Guaifenesin belongs to the class of expectorants that works by increasing the volume of fluid in the airways, thereby reducing the stickiness or viscosity of mucus, making it easier for airways passage. Menthol is a cooling agent that produces a cooling sensation and provides relief from minor throat irritation due to cough deposition. Terbutaline sulphate belongs to the class of bronchodilators that relaxes muscles and widens the airways making breathing easier in people with respiratory complications.
