Kuff X Tablet

Kuff X Tablet 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.

Kuff X Tablet 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.
