Asthrem Syrup is a combination of three drugs, namely: Ambroxol, Guaifenesin, and Terbutaline. Ambroxol belongs to the class of mucolytic agents (cough/sputum thinner) that work by thinning and loosening phlegm (mucus) in the lungs, windpipe, and nose for coughing out easily. Guaifenesin belongs to the class of expectorants that increase the volume of fluid in the airways, reduce the stickiness of mucus, and remove it from the airways. Terbutaline is a bronchodilator that relaxes muscles and widens the airways. Thereby, it makes breathing easier.
