About Asthakind Expectorant

Asthakind Expectorant is used to treat cough associated with mucus. Coughing (dry or productive) is the body’s way of clearing irritants (like allergens, mucus or smoke) from airways, thereby preventing respiratory infection. Cough has two types: dry cough and chesty cough. A dry cough means it's tickly and doesn't produce any viscous or thick mucus, while a chesty cough means mucus or sputum is produced to help clear your airways.

Asthakind Expectorant is a combination of three drugs, namely Guaifenesin, Terbutaline and Bromhexine. Guaifenesin belongs to the class of expectorants that work by increasing the volume of fluid in the airways, reducing the stickiness of mucus and helping to remove it from the airways. Terbutaline belongs to the class of bronchodilators that relax muscles and widen the airways. Thus, it makes breathing easier. Bromhexine belongs to the class of mucolytic agents (cough/sputum thinner) that work by thinning and loosening phlegm (mucus) in the lungs, windpipe and nose. Thus, it helps cough up easily.

Use Asthakind Expectorant as prescribed by your doctor. Some people may experience nausea, vomiting, drowsiness, headache, dizziness, skin rash, tremors, stomach upset and fast heartbeats. Most of these side effects of Asthakind Expectorant do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your doctor.
