Ascodex SF Syrup Sugar Free is a sugar-free cough syrup used to treat wet (productive) cough, especially when it is accompanied by mucus. It works by thinning the mucus in the nose, throat, and lungs, making it easier to expel through coughing. This syrup is beneficial in relieving chest congestion, wheezing, shortness of breath, and runny nose or sneezing that may be caused by infections, allergies, or other respiratory issues. It is a combination medicine, suitable for people who need both mucus clearance and airway relaxation. It is also important to drink plenty of fluids to help loosen mucus while using this medication.

How Ascodex SF Syrup works
Ascodex SF Syrup Sugar Free is a triple-action formula containing Guaifenesin, Terbutaline, and Bromhexine. Each component plays a specific role in improving respiratory function.
- Guaifenesin is an expectorant that reduces the stickiness of mucus, helping it to be coughed out easily. This clears the airways and reduces coughing.
- Terbutaline is a bronchodilator that relaxes the muscles in the lungs and opens up the air passages, making breathing easier and reducing wheezing or shortness of breath.
- Bromhexine is a mucolytic agent that breaks down thick mucus, further aiding its removal from the respiratory tract.
Together, these ingredients work in synergy to provide fast and long-lasting relief from productive cough, improving airflow and reducing respiratory discomfort. The sugar-free base ensures it is gentler on individuals who need to avoid sugar in their medications, such as diabetics.
