Corun-B Sugar Free Syrup 100 ml

Corun-B Sugar Free Syrup 100 ml belongs to the class of medications called 'Expectorants' primarily used to treat cough associated with asthma, bronchitis (inflamed airways), and other lung's airways (bronchopulmonary) problems. 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.

Corun-B Sugar Free Syrup 100 ml is a combination of two drugs, namely: Terbutaline (bronchodilator) and Bromhexine (mucolytic agent). Terbutaline belongs to the class of bronchodilators that dilates (expands) and relaxes the air passages in the lungs, thereby making breathing easier, especially in people with airways problems or respiratory obstructive disorders. On the other hand, Bromhexine belongs to the class of mucolytic agents (mucus/cough/phlegm thinner) that works by thinning and loosening mucus in the lungs, windpipe, and nose, resulting in easy coughing out.

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-coloured, it indicates you may have allergies or minor infection in the respiratory tract, and yellow or green mucus indicates a respiratory infection.
