How SALVENT BR SYRUP Works

SALVENT BR SYRUP is a combination of ambroxol, guaiphenesin, terbutaline, and
menthol, where ambroxol is a mucolytic agent that thins and loosens the mucus
(phlegm) and makes it easier to cough out. Guaiphenesin is an expectorant that
decreases the stickiness of secretions present in the airways, thins the mucous,
and helps in their removal from the airways. Menthol is an org
(cooling agent) that produces a sensation of coolness by stimulating the cold
receptors and relieves minor throat irritation. Terbutaline belongs to the
bronchodilator, which relaxes the muscles in the airways and results in the
widening of the airways. Together, they make breathing easier and eliminate
coughing.
