A cough with mucus may be caused by an infection, allergies, or an underlying lung condition. Drink plenty of water to help thin mucus, use a humidifier or try steam inhalation, and avoid exposure to smoke, dust, or other irritants. Over-the-counter cough medicines or expectorants may provide temporary relief, but if your cough lasts more than 2-3 weeks, please see a doctor for proper diagnosis and treatment.

Get plenty of rest, drink enough fluids, and eat light, nutritious meals to prevent weakness. You may take paracetamol to reduce your fever and try steam inhalation or saline nasal drops to ease congestion. If symptoms worsen, last more than a few days, or you have difficulty breathing, please see a doctor promptly.

Ascodex LS Expectorant contains Levosalbutamol, Ambroxol, and Guaiphenesin, which help open your airways, thin and loosen mucus, and make it easier to cough up phlegm/sputum. Thus, it can help relieve chest congestion with a mucus-producing cough. Take it exactly as prescribed, and consult your doctor if symptoms persist or worsen.
