FAQs

Respyte Syrup contains Levosalbutamol, Ambroxol hydrochloride, and Guaiphenesin. Levosalbutamol relaxes muscles and widens the airways of the lungs. Ambroxol hydrochloride works by thinning and loosening phlegm (mucus) in the lungs, windpipe, and nose. Thus, it helps to cough out easily. Guaiphenesin increases the volume of fluid in the airways, reduces the stickiness of mucus, and helps to remove it from the airways.

Respyte Syrup should be used with caution in children with hyperthyroidism (overactive thyroid) as it may worsen the condition. Inform the doctor if your child has hyperthyroidism before using Respyte Syrup so that the dose may be adjusted appropriately. However, regular monitoring of thyroid hormone levels is recommended while using Respyte Syrup for your child.

Respyte Syrup may cause diarrhoea as a common side effect. However, if the condition persists or worsens, please consult a doctor.

Therefore, use Respyte Syrup for as long as your doctor has prescribed it, and if your child experiences any difficulty while using Respyte Syrup, please consult your doctor.

About Respyte Syrup

Respyte Syrup belongs to the class of medicines called expectorants used to provide relief from cough associated with bronchitis, bronchial asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), emphysema (damage of air sacs in the lungs) and other bronchopulmonary disorders where bronchospasm, mucous plugging and problems of expectoration co-exist. Coughing (dry or productive) is the body's way of clearing irritants (like allergens, mucus or smoke) from airways and preventing infection.

Respyte Syrup is a combination of three drugs, namely Levosalbutamol (bronchodilator), Ambroxol hydrochloride (mucolytic agent), and Guaiphenesin (expectorant). Levosalbutamol works by relaxing muscles and widening the airways of the lungs. Ambroxol hydrochloride works by thinning and loosening phlegm (mucus) in the lungs, windpipe, and nose. Thereby helping to cough out phlegm easily. Guaiphenesin increases the volume of fluid in the airways, reduces the stickiness of mucus, and helps to remove it from the airways. Together, Respyte Syrup helps provide relief from cough.

Respyte Syrup is for paediatric use. Your doctor will recommend how often your child needs to take Respyte Syrup based on his/her medical condition. Respyte Syrup may cause common side effects such as nausea, vomiting, indigestion, diarrhoea, headache, dry mouth or throat. Most of these side effects of Respyte Syrup do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your doctor.

If your child is allergic to Respyte Syrup or any other medicines, please tell your doctor. If your child is suffering from fits or has a history of fits, please inform the doctor before using Respyte Syrup as it may increase the risk of recurrent fits. Keep your doctor informed about your child’s health condition and medications to rule out any interactions/side effects.
