About Grilinctus-BM Syrup

Grilinctus-BM Syrup belongs to the class of medications called 'Expectorants' primarily used to treat cough associated with asthma, bronchitis (inflamed airways) and other airways (bronchopulmonary) problems. Coughing (dry or productive) is the body's way of clearing irritants (like allergens, mucus or smoke) from airways and preventing infection. There are two types of coughs, namely dry cough and chesty cough. A dry cough is tickly and doesn't produce any vicious or thick mucus, while a chesty cough (wet cough) means mucous or sputum is produced to help clear your airways.

Grilinctus-BM Syrup is a combination of two drugs, namely: Terbutaline sulphate and Bromhexine. Terbutaline sulphate belongs to the class of bronchodilators that dilates (expands) and relaxes the air passages in the lungs, thereby making breathing easier, especially in people with airways problems or obstructive respiratory disorders. On the other hand, Bromhexine belongs to the class of mucolytic agents (mucus/cough/phlegm thinner) that works by thinning and loosening mucus in the lungs, windpipe and nose, which helps ease coughing out.

Your doctor will recommend how often you need to take Grilinctus-BM Syrup based on your medical condition. Some people may experience nausea, chest pain, vomiting, drowsiness, headache, dizziness, skin rash, tremor, nervousness, diarrhoea and fast heartbeats. Most of these side effects of Grilinctus-BM Syrup do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your doctor.

Disease/Condition Glossary

Cough: Coughing is the 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, whereas the dry cough does not bring up sputum. 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-coloured, it indicates you may have allergies or a minor infection in the respiratory tract, and yellow or green mucus indicates a respiratory infection.
