Asthalin AX

Asthalin AX is a combination medicine formulated to relieve productive cough. It contains Levosalbutamol (a bronchodilator that relaxes airway muscles to make breathing easier), Ambroxol (a mucolytic agent that liquefies and thins thick mucus), and Guaiphenesin (an expectorant that reduces the stickiness of mucus, facilitating its clearance from the respiratory tract).
