Codofyline 400mg Syrup belongs to the group of medications called Bronchodilators. It is used to prevent and treat symptoms of asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and bronchospasm. It contains doxofylline that works by relaxing the muscles around the airways, helping to open them up and improve airflow. It works by increasing certain natural substances in the lungs that help reduce swelling and tightness in the airways. This helps prevent and relieve symptoms like wheezing, coughing, and breathlessness in asthma and COPD. It may cause side effects such as nausea, vomiting, headache, trouble sleeping, stomach pain, irritability, fast heartbeat, extra heartbeats, and dizziness. Most of these side effects are mild and go away with time. However, consult your doctor if any of these side effects persist or get worse.

About Codofyline 400mg Syrup
Codofyline 400mg Syrup belongs to a class of medications known as bronchodilators. It is used to prevent and treat symptoms of asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and bronchospasm. Asthma is a chronic (long-term) respiratory condition in which airways narrow, swell, and produce extra mucus, leading to difficulty in breathing. COPD is a group of lung diseases that includes emphysema (shortness of breath) and chronic bronchitis (inflammation of the lining of the bronchial tubes). Bronchospasm is the sudden narrowing of the airways due to the tightening of the airway muscles.
Codofyline 400mg Syrup contains doxofylline that works by relaxing the muscles around the airways, helping to open them up and improve airflow. It inhibits the enzyme phosphodiesterase, which increases cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) levels, thereby reducing inflammation and bronchospasm. This helps prevent and relieve symptoms like wheezing, coughing, and breathlessness in asthma and COPD.
The dose and duration of treatment with Codofyline 400mg Syrup can be determined by the doctor based on your medical condition. Some people may experience nausea, vomiting, headache, insomnia (difficulty sleeping), epigastric pain, irritability, a fast heart rate, extrasystoles (extra heartbeats), and dizziness.
