About Mewell Syrup

Mewell Syrup belongs to the class of medication called ‘cough suppressants’ primarily used to treat dry 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 clear your airways.

Mewell Syrup consists of Levodropropizine (cough suppressant) as its active ingredient which belongs to the cough suppressants class that works by blocking the transmission of nerve signals from the cough centre in the brain.

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.
