Used to treat cough with mucus

HOW MUCIDAY SUGAR FREE HONEY RASPBERRY FLAVOUR SYRUP WORKS
MUCIDAY SUGAR FREE HONEY RASPBERRY FLAVOUR SYRUP is a combination of Acebrophylline, Guaiphenesin and Terbutaline. Acebrophylline lowers the viscosity of the thick mucus and increases ciliary motility making it easy for mucus to be moved. It facilitates bronchial muscles relaxation by increasing certain enzymes. Guaiphenesin increases respiratory tract fluid, reduces the viscosity of tenacious secretions and acts as an expectorant. Terbutaline works by relaxing the muscles in the airways and widens airways. When the medicine is given in combination, it makes breathing easier and relives the discomfort.
