Exter Syrup 100 ML comprises four active ingredients that work together to manage cough and congestion:

• Ambroxol (15mg): This ingredient has mucokinetic and secretolytic properties. It reduces the viscosity of mucus by breaking down mucopolysaccharides directly and via lysosomal enzymes network. This action facilitates expectoration

• Guaifenesin (50mg): Acting as an expectorant, guaifenesin stimulates cholinergic receptors to increase the volume and reduce the viscosity of airway secretions. This makes coughs more productive

• Menthol (0.5mg): Menthol is a cyclic terpene alcohol that soothes irritated airways by mildly anaesthetising sensory nerve endings. It also suppresses coughing and has mild decongestant effects

• Terbutaline (1.25mg): As a β2-adrenergic receptor agonist, terbutaline widens airways by increasing intracellular cAMP and causing smooth muscle relaxation in bronchi and bronchioles. It reduces bronchospasms and aids in mucus clearance

Together, these actions reduce cough and congestion, making breathing easier.

• Drinking plenty of fluids can help thin mucus, aiding in easier breathing and cough relief. Hydration also helps manage side effects like dry mouth that Exter Syrup 100 ML might cause.
