Exoterb LS Syrup contains Levosalbutamol, Ambroxol hydrochloride, and Guaiphenesin, used to treat cough associated with mucus. Levosalbutamol is a bronchodilator that relaxes muscles and widens the airways of the lungs. Ambroxol hydrochloride is a mucolytic agent (cough/sputum thinner) that works by thinning and loosening phlegm (mucus) in the lungs, windpipe, and nose. Thereby helping to cough out easily. Guaiphenesin is an expectorant that works by increasing the volume of fluid in the airways, reducing the stickiness of mucus and helping to remove it from the airways. Together, Exoterb LS Syrup helps provide relief from cough.
