About TUSPEL LIQUID

TUSPEL LIQUID belongs to a class of respiratory medications called 'expectorant' primarily used to treat cough. Coughing (dry or productive) is the body's way of clearing irritants (like allergens, mucus or smoke) from the airways. There are two types of coughs, namely: Dry cough and chesty cough. A dry cough is tickly and doesn't produce thick mucus, while a chesty cough (wet cough) produces mucous or sputum that helps clear the airways.

TUSPEL LIQUID consists of four medicines, namely: Bromohexine (mucolytic), Terbutaline (bronchodilator), Ammonium chloride (irritant/expectorant) and Menthol (cooling agent). Bromhexine makes sputum less viscous and makes it easier to cough out. Terbutaline works by dilating (expanding) and relaxing the air passages in the lungs, making breathing easier, especially in people with airway problems or respiratory obstructive disorders. Ammonium chloride is an expectorant that decreases the stickiness of mucous and helps remove it from the airways. Menthol is an organic compound that produces a cooling sensation and relieves throat irritation.

TUSPEL LIQUID is available in oral syrup and suspension. The most common side effects of TUSPEL LIQUID are nausea, diarrhoea, bloating, indigestion, vomiting, stomach upset, sweating, dizziness, headache and skin rash. Most of these side effects of TUSPEL LIQUID do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects are persistent, reach out to your doctor.

Let your doctor know if you have any allergic reactions to TUSPEL LIQUID or any other medication. Brief your medical history to the doctor if you have any heart, liver, kidney, lung diseases, depression and Parkinson's disease before taking TUSPEL LIQUID . TUSPEL LIQUID can cause sleepiness; hence avoid taking alcohol while using TUSPEL LIQUID . TUSPEL LIQUID may affect your ability to drive. It is advised not to drive whilst taking this medicine. Check with your doctor if you are pregnant, currently breastfeeding or taking any other prescribed or non-prescribed drugs.
