About Kufril Expectorant 100 ml

 

Kufril Expectorant 100 ml belongs to the class of medicines called expectorants primarily used to treat cough associated with mucus. Coughing (dry or productive) is a body’s way of clearing irritants (like allergens, mucus or smoke) from airways and preventing infection. There are two types of coughs, namely: Dry cough and chesty cough. A dry cough is tickly and doesn’t produce any vicious or thick mucus, while a chesty cough (wet cough) means mucous or sputum is produced to help clear your airways.

Kufril Expectorant 100 ml is a combination of three drugs, namely: Ambroxol (mucolytic agent), Guaiphenesin (expectorant) and Terbutaline (bronchodilator). Ambroxol belongs to the class of mucolytic agents (cough/sputum thinner) that works by thinning and loosening phlegm (mucus) in the lungs, windpipe and nose. Guaiphenesin belongs to the class of expectorants that increase the volume of fluid in the airways, reduces the stickiness of mucus, and removes it from the airways. Terbutaline belongs to the class of bronchodilators that relaxes muscles and widens the airways. Thereby, it makes breathing easier. Together, Kufril Expectorant 100 ml helps provide relief from cough.

Take Kufril Expectorant 100 ml as prescribed. Your doctor will recommend how often you need to take Kufril Expectorant 100 ml based on your medical condition. In some cases, you may experience certain common side effects such as nausea, vomiting, drowsiness, headache, dizziness, skin rash, nervousness, tremor, stomach upset and fast heartbeats. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your doctor.

Consult your doctor before taking Kufril Expectorant 100 ml if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Kufril Expectorant 100 ml should be used with caution in children if prescribed by a doctor. If you are suffering from fits or have a history of fits, please inform your doctor before taking Kufril Expectorant 100 ml as it may increase the risk of recurrent fits. If you have diabetes, regular monitoring of blood sugar levels is recommended while taking Kufril Expectorant 100 ml. Keep your doctor informed about your health condition and medications to rule out any interactions/ side effects.

Disease/Condition Glossary

Cough: Coughing is a body’s way of clearing irritants (like allergens, mucus or smoke) from airways and preventing infection. Coughs may be dry or productive. A productive cough (wet cough) brings up sputum (phlegm, mucus and other matter) from the lungs. Cough is commonly caused as a response to allergy or viral infection but coughing up mucus is possibly an indication of infection in the respiratory tract. If you are coughing thick, solid white mucus, you may have a bacterial infection in the airways. If the mucus is clear or light-coloured, you may have allergies or minor infections in the respiratory tract, and yellow or green mucus indicates a respiratory infection.
