About Salkon Kid Suspension
Salkon Kid Suspension is used in the treatment of productive cough (cough associated with mucus) in children. Coughing (dry or productive) is the body's way of clearing irritants (like allergens, mucus or smoke) from airways, thereby preventing respiratory infection. There are two types of coughs, namely, Dry cough and Chesty/Wet/Productive cough. A dry cough means it's tickly and doesn't produce any vicious or thick mucus, while a chesty/wet cough means mucous or sputum is produced to help clear the airways.
Salkon Kid Suspension is a combination of two drugs, namely Terbutaline (bronchodilator) and Bromhexine (mucolytic agent or cough thinner). Terbutaline sulphate relaxes muscles and widens the airways. Thereby it makes breathing easier. Bromhexine hydrochloride works by thinning and loosening phlegm (mucus) in the lungs, windpipe and nose. Thereby, it helps to cough out easily.
