tussiglobe 120 ml syrup

Medicine Description tussiglobe 0.3%

Tussiglobe Syrup is an effective cough medicine specially formulated to control cough and soothe respiratory tract irritation. It acts as a cough suppressant for dry, non-productive coughs due to the presence of the active ingredient benproperine.

The medicine helps relax the airways and reduces the repeated urge to cough, especially the persistent cough that often disturbs sleep at night. It also helps people suffering from severe coughing episodes or continuous throat irritation regain restful sleep and overall comfort.

Composition of Tussiglobe

• Benproperine

Available Strength

• Oral syrup, 0.3%, available in a 120 mL bottle.

Uses of Tussiglobe Syrup

Dosage of Tussiglobe

Contraindications

Alternatives to Tussiglobe

• Codilar

• Bronchophane

• Notussil

Pregnancy and Breastfeeding

• The use of this medicine during pregnancy, especially during the first trimester, is not recommended unless the expected benefit outweighs the potential risk to the fetus and it is prescribed under close medical supervision.

• Breastfeeding women should consult their physician before using this medicine, as there is insufficient information regarding the excretion of benproperine into breast milk or its effects on the nursing infant. The physician will determine whether treatment is appropriate or whether a safer alternative should be used.

Storage Conditions

• Store in a dry place at a temperature not exceeding 30°C.

• Keep the bottle tightly closed after each use to protect it from moisture and contamination.
