Ambrolene Syrup - Uses, Price, Side Effects
What is ambrolene syrup used for?
Ambrolene Syrup contains Ambroxol (30mg/5ml), a mucolytic agent that helps thin and loosen mucus in the airways, making it easier to cough up. It is used for relief from productive cough, chest congestion, and respiratory conditions like bronchitis and COPD. It works by increasing the production of respiratory tract secretions and reducing mucus viscosity.
