Composition

Ambroxol (30 Mg) + Guaifenesin (50 Mg) + Levosalbutamol (1 Mg)

Alex Ls Expectorant 100ml is used to treat chest congestion and productive cough in conditions like bronchitis, asthma, emphysema, and other respiratory illnesses. It combines a mucolytic (loosens thick mucus), an expectorant (helps clear it), a bronchodilator (opens airways), providing multi-symptom relief.

This medicine also helps alleviate symptoms like runny nose, sneezing, itching and watery eyes associated with respiratory tract allergies. Furthermore, it is useful in conditions such as bronchitis, bronchial asthma, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), where mucus production contributes to difficulty breathing.

Before starting this medicine, it's important to consult your doctor for guidance on the correct dosage and frequency. Inform your doctor about any pre-existing conditions or ongoing medications. If you observe any side effects while using this medicine, notify your doctor promptly. Ensure you continue taking the medicine for the duration prescribed by your doctor for optimal results.

Alex Ls Expectorant 100ml is used to treat respiratory conditions such as cough, bronchitis, and asthma. It helps in reducing mucus production, easing breathing, and providing relief from chest congestion, making it effective for treating upper and lower respiratory tract infections.

Take Alex Ls Expectorant 100ml as follows:

Use a measuring cup or spoon for correct dosing.
Make sure to shake the bottle thoroughly before each use.
This medicine is sugar-based and needs caution for use in diabetic patients. If you have diabetes, consult your doctor before taking this medicine.
Keep the bottle tightly sealed when not in use.

Alex Ls Expectorant 100ml is taken orally.

Alex Ls Expectorant 100ml might cause the following common side effects:

Nausea
Dryness of mouth, nose, or throat
Headache
Dizziness
Muscle cramps or weakness

Managing the Side Effects:

Most side effects are temporary, generally harmless, and resolve upon stopping the use of Alex Ls Expectorant 100ml. If you experience serious side effects or worsening of the symptoms, consult your doctor.

Here are some general guidelines for alleviating common side effects:

Nausea: Try taking Alex Ls Expectorant 100ml with food to lessen this effect.
Dizziness: If this medicine makes you dizzy, consider taking it at night to avoid major disruptions in your day.

Alex Ls Expectorant 100ml contains three active ingredients:

Ambroxol (30 mg): This mucolytic agent thins and loosens mucus (phlegm), making it easier to cough out. It breaks down complex substances in mucus, reducing its thickness and stickiness. Ambroxol also stimulates the production of a substance that keeps the small air sacs in the lungs open.
Guaifenesin (50 mg): As an expectorant, guaifenesin increases the volume and reduces the thickness of respiratory tract mucus. By stimulating certain receptors, it promotes mucus secretion. The increased hydration and reduced stickiness of mucus help in its removal through coughing.
Levosalbutamol (1 mg): This ingredient is a type of salbutamol that selectively acts on specific receptors in the lungs. Levosalbutamol works as a bronchodilator, relaxing the muscles of the airways from the windpipe to the smallest air tubes. This reduces airflow resistance and makes breathing easier.

Pregnancy

If you are pregnant, take caution while using Alex Ls Expectorant 100ml. It's always wise to consult your doctor before starting this medication.

Breastfeeding

Alex Ls Expectorant 100ml should be taken with care if you're breastfeeding. Discuss the potential risks and benefits with your doctor.

Alcohol

While on Alex Ls Expectorant 100ml, it's best to avoid alcohol, as it might increase the risk of side effects. Always consult your doctor first.

Liver

If you have a history of liver problems, caution is advised while taking Alex Ls Expectorant 100ml. Discuss these issues with your doctor before starting this medicine.

Kidney

People with a history of kidney problems should use Alex Ls Expectorant 100ml cautiously. Consult your doctor before taking this medicine.

Using Machines & Driving

As Alex Ls Expectorant 100ml may cause dizziness or drowsiness, caution is advised while driving or operating machinery until you know how this medication affects you.

Allergy

Avoid using Alex Ls Expectorant 100ml if you're allergic to ambroxol, guaifenesin, levosalbutamol, or any other ingredients in this medicine.

Children

Though generally safe for children over 2 years old, it's best to consult a doctor before giving Alex Ls Expectorant 100ml to a child.

Older Patients

Older patients should use Alex Ls Expectorant 100ml under medical supervision, as they may be more susceptible to its side effects, especially if they have liver and kidney issues or are on other medications.

Drug-Drug Interactions

Alex Ls Expectorant 100ml can interact with the following medicines:

Beta-blockers: Medicines such as atenolol and propranolol may interact with Alex Ls Expectorant 100ml, which contains levosalbutamol. This interaction could potentially reduce the effectiveness of the bronchodilator action of levosalbutamol.
Diuretics: Taking diuretics like furosemide and torsemide along with this medicine might increase potassium levels in your body.
Cardiac glycosides: Interaction with digoxin might lead to an increased risk of side effects, like irregular heartbeat or heart palpitations.
Antidepressants: If you're taking amitriptyline or imipramine, it could lead to an increased risk of cardiovascular side effects due to interaction with levosalbutamol.

Drug-Food Interactions

Certain foods might interact with Alex Ls Expectorant 100ml. These include:

Grapefruit: Consuming grapefruit or grapefruit juice while on this medication may increase the risk of adverse effects.

Drug-Disease Interactions

Alex Ls Expectorant 100ml interacts with the following diseases:

Stomach ulcers: The ambroxol in this syrup may increase the risk of gastrointestinal bleeding in patients who have a history of stomach ulcers.
Diabetes: As Alex Ls Expectorant 100ml contains levosalbutamol, it might interfere with blood sugar control in diabetic patients.
Hypertension and heart disease: Levosalbutamol can cause an increase in heart rate, which might exacerbate these conditions.
Hyperthyroidism: Patients suffering from this condition should use caution, as levosalbutamol can further raise the metabolic rate.

Daily Dose
