ASCORIL PLUS HONEY ROSE FLAVOUR – Bottle of 120ml Expectorant

Ascoril Plus Honey Rose Flavour is a 120 ml expectorant syrup designed to help alleviate symptoms associated with cough and respiratory congestion. It contains a combination of active ingredients that work together to loosen mucus, relieve bronchospasm, and promote easier breathing. The honey rose flavor adds a pleasant taste to the syrup, making it more palatable, especially for children.

Active Ingredients in Ascoril Plus Honey Rose Flavour:

1. Ambroxol (30 mg per 5 ml):
   • Ambroxol is a mucolytic agent and expectorant. It works by loosening and thinning mucus in the airways, making it easier to clear mucus from the lungs. It also promotes the production of surfactant, a substance that helps keep the airways moist and supports efficient lung function.
2. Salbutamol (2 mg per 5 ml):
   • Salbutamol is a bronchodilator that works by relaxing the muscles around the airways. This helps widen the air passages, making it easier for air to flow into the lungs and improving breathing. It is commonly used to relieve symptoms of bronchospasm in conditions like asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
3. Guaifenesin (50 mg per 5 ml):
   • Guaifenesin is another expectorant that helps to loosen the mucus in the airways. It works by increasing the production of thinner mucus, which helps clear the airways more easily, reducing congestion and promoting more productive coughing.

Indications:

Ascoril Plus Honey Rose Flavour Syrup is typically prescribed for:

• Cough with mucus production: It helps to thin and loosen the mucus, making it easier to clear the airways.
• Bronchospasm: Conditions like asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), where airway narrowing makes it difficult to breathe.
• Respiratory congestion: In conditions like bronchitis, common cold, and flu, which cause excessive mucus buildup and difficulty in breathing.
• Productive cough: When the cough is associated with thick mucus production, this syrup helps make the mucus easier to expel.

Dosage:

The usual dosage of Ascoril Plus Honey Rose Flavour syrup is:

• Adults: 10 ml to 15 ml, two to three times a day, or as directed by a healthcare provider.
• Children (6-12 years): 5 ml to 10 ml, two to three times a day.
• Children (2-6 years): 2.5 ml to 5 ml, two to three times a day.

Always follow your healthcare provider’s instructions for the correct dosage based on the child’s age, weight, and specific condition.

Side Effects:

Ascoril Plus Honey Rose Flavour syrup may cause some side effects, though not everyone experiences them:

• Common side effects:
  • Dizziness or lightheadedness
  • Nausea or upset stomach
  • Throat irritation or dry mouth
  • Increased heart rate (due to Salbutamol)

  • Allergic reactions such as rash, itching, or difficulty breathing
  • Irregular heartbeats or palpitations
  • Severe dizziness, fainting, or chest pain

Precautions:

• Heart conditions: Since Salbutamol can increase heart rate and blood pressure, caution is required for people with heart disease, high blood pressure, or arrhythmias.
• Pregnancy and breastfeeding: Consult a doctor before using Ascoril Plus Honey Rose Flavour if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.
• Liver or kidney problems: People with liver or kidney issues may need a dosage adjustment. Consult a healthcare provider before use.

• Allergic reactions: If you notice signs of an allergic reaction, such as swelling of the face, lips, or throat, stop the medication immediately and seek medical help.

Warnings:

• Overuse: Do not exceed the prescribed dosage, as overuse of Salbutamol can cause side effects like increased heart rate, shaking, and nervousness.
• Persistent symptoms: If the symptoms persist for more than a week, or if new symptoms such as high fever or chest pain appear, consult a healthcare provider.
