About This Medicine
Product description & overview
Kof-Scin Expectorant is a multi-ingredient formulation designed to provide effective relief from productive cough and associated respiratory symptoms. It contains Ambroxol (15mg/5ml), a mucolytic agent that facilitates the breakdown and clearance of mucus from the respiratory tract, enhancing expectoration. Guaifenesin (50mg/5ml) acts as an expectorant, promoting the thinning and loosening of mucus to ease coughing and improve airway clearance. Menthol (1mg/5ml) provides a soothing effect on the throat and nasal passages, offering symptomatic relief from irritation and congestion. Terbutaline (1.25mg/5ml), a selective beta-2 adrenergic receptor agonist, functions as a bronchodilator, relaxing bronchial smooth muscle to alleviate bronchospasm and improve airflow. Together, these components synergistically address cough and mucus build-up, facilitating easier breathing and enhanced patient comfort. Kof-Scin Expectorant is indicated for the symptomatic treatment of respiratory conditions characterized by excessive or thickened mucus, such as bronchitis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and asthma exacerbations. It should be used under medical supervision, with caution in patients with cardiovascular disorders, hypertension, or hypersensitivity to any of the active ingredients. The dosage and duration of treatment should be individualized based on clinical response and patient tolerance.

About Guaifenesin
Guaifenesin is an expectorant primarily used to treat cough associated with mucus production. It works by reducing the viscosity of mucus in the air passages, making it easier to expel through coughing. Guaifenesin is particularly effective for chesty coughs, helping to clear airways and alleviate respiratory discomfort. Its clinical relevance lies in its ability to improve airway clearance and enhance respiratory function. In summary, Guaifenesin is a valuable medication for managing productive coughs.
How It Works
Guaifenesin reduces mucus viscosity by increasing the hydration of secretions in the respiratory tract, facilitating easier expectoration.
All Active Ingredients
Terbutaline
Terbutaline stimulates beta-2 adrenergic receptors, causing relaxation of bronchial smooth muscle and dilation of airways.
Ambroxol
Ambroxol stimulates the secretion of mucus and reduces its viscosity, facilitating easier expectoration.
