About Decoff T Liquid 100 ml

Decoff T Liquid 100 ml belongs to a class of respiratory medication called ‘expectorant' primarily used to treat vicious and excessive mucus in patients with asthma and COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disorder) having a cough. It helps in dissolving hard phlegm (sputum/cough) which makes breathing difficult usually in respiratory problems like allergies, sinusitis, common cold, bronchitis, flu, etc. Coughing (dry or productive) is a body’s way of clearing irritants (like allergens, mucus, or smoke) from airways and preventing infection.

Decoff T Liquid 100 ml is a combination of four drugs, namely: Guaifenesin (expectorant), Bromhexine (mucolytic agent), Terbutaline (bronchodilator), and Menthol (cooling agent). Guaifenesin belongs to the class of expectorants that works by increasing the volume of fluid in the airways, thereby reducing the stickiness or viscosity of mucus, and making it easier for airway passage. Bromhexine belongs to the class of mucolytic agents (cough/sputum thinner) that works by thinning and loosening phlegm (mucus) in the lungs, windpipe, and nose, making it easier to cough it out. Terbutaline belongs to the class of bronchodilators that relaxes muscles and widens the airways making breathing easier in people with respiratory complications. Menthol is a cooling agent that produces a cooling sensation and provides relief from minor throat irritation due to cough deposition.

Take Decoff T Liquid 100 ml as prescribed. Your doctor will recommend how often you take Decoff T Liquid 100 ml based on your medical condition. Some people may experience diarrhoea, nausea, vomiting, drowsiness, headache, dizziness, skin rash, tremor, stomach upset, and fast heartbeats. Most of these side effects of Decoff T Liquid 100 ml do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your doctor.

If you are known to be allergic to Decoff T Liquid 100 ml or any other medicines, please tell your doctor. If you are pregnant or planning for pregnancy, it is advised to inform your doctor before taking Decoff T Liquid 100 ml. Avoid taking Decoff T Liquid 100 ml while breastfeeding as it is excreted in breast milk and may cause adverse effects in the baby. If you are suffering from fits or have a history of fits, please inform your doctor before taking Decoff T Liquid 100 ml as it may increase the risk of recurrent fits. If you have diabetes, regular monitoring of blood sugar levels is recommended while taking Decoff T Liquid 100 ml. If you have diabetes, fits, high blood pressure, glaucoma, cough for a long time, chronic bronchitis (swelling and irritation of the lining of airways), emphysema (lung condition resulting in shortness of breath), overactive thyroid, phenylketonuria (a congenital disability that causes accumulation of amino acid, phenylalanine in the body), ulcers in the stomach or intestines, kidney, liver or heart problems, please inform your doctor before taking Decoff T Liquid 100 ml.

Disease/Condition Glossary

Cough: Coughing is a body’s way of clearing irritants (like allergens, mucus, or smoke) from airways and preventing infection. Coughs may be dry or productive. A productive cough (wet cough) brings up sputum (phlegm, mucus, and other matter) from the lungs. Cough is commonly caused as a response to allergy or viral infection but coughing up mucus is possibly an indication of infection in the respiratory tract. If you are coughing thick, solid white mucus, it indicates you may have a bacterial infection in the airways. If the mucus is clear or light-colored, it indicates you may have allergies or a minor infection in the respiratory tract, and yellow or green mucus indicates a respiratory infection.
