Sputnix AB Syrup is a combination of three medicines: Acebrophylline, Guaifenesin, and Terbutaline. Acebrophylline belongs to the class of mucolytic agents (cough/sputum thinner) that works by thinning and loosening phlegm (mucus) in the lungs, windpipe, and nose. Guaifenesin belongs to the class of expectorants that works by increasing the volume of fluid in the airways, reduces the stickiness of mucus, and helps to remove it from airways. Terbutaline belongs to the class of bronchodilators that relaxes muscles and widens the airways. Together, Sputnix AB Syrup helps to cough out the phlegm easily and clear the airways making breathing easier.
