About Norcof-L Syrup 100 ml
Norcof-L Syrup 100 ml 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 and preventing infection. A dry cough is tickly and doesn't produce any viscous or thick mucus, while a chesty cough (wet cough) produces mucus or sputum.
Norcof-L Syrup 100 ml is a combination of Levosalbutamol, Ambroxol, and Guaiphenesin. Levosalbutamol relaxes muscles and widens the airways of the lungs. Ambroxol thins and loosens phlegm (mucus) in the lungs, windpipe, and nose. Guaiphenesin increases the volume of fluid in the airways and reduces the stickiness of mucus.
Take Norcof-L Syrup 100 ml as advised by your doctor. Norcof-L Syrup 100 ml may cause common side effects, including nausea, vomiting, drowsiness, headache, dizziness, stomach upset, and diarrhoea.
