Viscodyne SF Syrup is used to relieve productive cough caused by respiratory conditions such as bronchitis, asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).

It is a combination medicine containing a mucolytic, an expectorant and a bronchodilator that helps clear congestion by loosening thick mucus in the airways, improving airflow and easing breathing. Take it as prescribed by your doctor, following the recommended dose and duration.

Drinking plenty of fluids can help thin mucus further and support the action of this medicine. Avoiding smoke and other airway irritants may also ease chest tightness.

Inform your doctor about any other medications or health conditions before starting treatment, and take it for the prescribed duration as advised by your doctor.
