Oxydex Syrup 60 ml

Oxydex Syrup 60 ml belongs to the class of medicines called ‘expectorants’ primarily used to treat Asthma and Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Asthma is a chronic breathing problem that affects the airways in the lungs. These airways, also known as bronchial tubes, allow air to move in and out of the lungs. Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a chronic lung disorder in which there is difficulty emptying the air of the lungs (airflow obstruction). Due to this obstruction, patients experience difficulty in breathing.

Acebrophylline, Terbutaline, and Menthol are the active ingredients in Oxydex Syrup 60 ml. Acebrophylline is a bronchodilator and a mucolytic. It works by relaxing the muscles of the airways as well as thinning and loosening mucus, making breathing easier. Terbutaline functions as a bronchodilator. It works by relaxing airway muscles and widening airways. This makes it easier to breathe. Menthol is an organic chemical that generates a cooling feeling and reduces minor throat irritation. Thus, Oxydex Syrup 60 ml relieves the symptoms of Asthma and Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).

Asthma is a chronic breathing problem that affects the airways in the lungs. The air passages in the lungs become narrow due to inflammation and tightening of the muscles around the small airways.

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a chronic lung disorder in which there is difficulty emptying air of the lungs (airflow obstruction). Due to this obstruction, patients experience difficulty breathing or getting tired easily because of this breathing strain. COPD is a general term used for chronic bronchitis, emphysema, or a combination of both.
