AMMONIUM CHLORIDE+NOSCAPINE+SODIUM CITRATE belongs to a class of medications called ‘expectorants’ primarily used to treat dry cough. Coughing (dry or productive) is a body’s way of clearing irritants (like allergens, mucus, or smoke) from airways and preventing infection. There are two types of coughs, namely: Dry cough and chesty cough. A dry cough is tickly and doesn't produce any vicious or thick mucus, while a chesty cough (wet cough) means mucous or sputum is produced to help clear your airways.
AMMONIUM CHLORIDE+NOSCAPINE+SODIUM CITRATE is a combination of three drugs, namely: Noscapine (cough suppressant), Ammonium chloride (expectorant), and Sodium citrate (mucolytic agent). Noscapine belongs to the cough suppressants class that blocks the transmission of nerve signals from the cough center in the brain to the muscles that produce cough, thereby decreasing the need to cough. Ammonium chloride belongs to the class of expectorants that reduce mucus stickiness and clear airways. Sodium citrate is a mucolytic agent (cough/sputum thinner) that works by thinning and loosening phlegm (mucus) in the lungs, windpipe, and nasal passage.
Take AMMONIUM CHLORIDE+NOSCAPINE+SODIUM CITRATE as prescribed. Your doctor will recommend how often you take AMMONIUM CHLORIDE+NOSCAPINE+SODIUM CITRATE based on your medical condition. Some people may experience headaches, dizziness, nausea, constipation, and drowsiness. Most of these side effects of AMMONIUM CHLORIDE+NOSCAPINE+SODIUM CITRATE do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your doctor.
If you are allergic to AMMONIUM CHLORIDE+NOSCAPINE+SODIUM CITRATE or any other medicines, please tell your doctor. AMMONIUM CHLORIDE+NOSCAPINE+SODIUM CITRATE is usually not recommended for pregnant women as it may cause adverse effects on the baby. However, if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, it is advised to inform your doctor before using AMMONIUM CHLORIDE+NOSCAPINE+SODIUM CITRATE. Use AMMONIUM CHLORIDE+NOSCAPINE+SODIUM CITRATE with caution in children if prescribed by a doctor and in patients with pre-existing respiratory failure or any other lung disease. AMMONIUM CHLORIDE+NOSCAPINE+SODIUM CITRATE may cause severe allergic reactions such as chest tightness, unusual hoarseness, difficulty breathing, talking or swallowing, itching, blistered, swollen, or peeling skin with or without fever, swelling of the face, mouth, tongue, lips, or throat in some people. It is not necessary for everyone taking AMMONIUM CHLORIDE+NOSCAPINE+SODIUM CITRATE to experience these reactions. However, if you notice any of these symptoms while taking AMMONIUM CHLORIDE+NOSCAPINE+SODIUM CITRATE, please consult a doctor. If you have diabetes, fits, diarrhoea associated with infection, kidney, liver, or respiratory problems, inform your doctor before taking AMMONIUM CHLORIDE+NOSCAPINE+SODIUM CITRATE.

Cough: Coughing is a body’s way of clearing irritants (like allergens, mucus, or smoke) from airways and preventing infection. Coughs may be dry or productive. A productive cough (wet cough) brings up sputum (phlegm, mucus, and other matter) from the lungs. Cough is commonly caused as a response to allergy or viral infection but coughing up mucus is possibly an indication of infection in the respiratory tract. If you are coughing thick, solid white mucus, it indicates you may have a bacterial infection in the airways. If the mucus is clear or light-colored, it indicates you may have allergies or a minor infection in the respiratory tract, and yellow or green mucus indicates a respiratory infection.
