How Ambroxol+Guaiphenesin+Menthol+Terbutaline works

Ambroxol is a mucolytic agent that thins and loosens the mucus (phlegm) and makes it easier to cough it out. Guaiphenesin is an expectorant that decreases the stickiness of secretions present in the airways, thins the mucous, and helps in their removal from the airways. Menthol is a cooling agent that produces a sensation of coolness by stimulating the cold receptors and relieving minor throat irritation. Terbutaline belongs to the bronchodilator class, which relaxes the muscles in the airways and results in a widening of the airways. Together, they make breathing easier and eliminate coughing.
