About Mahaq 100 mg/2.5 mg/8 mg Tablet
Mahaq 100 mg/2.5 mg/8 mg Tablet belongs to the class of medicine called 'expectorant', primarily used to treat cough associated with mucus. Coughing (dry or productive) is the body's way of clearing irritants (like allergens, mucus or smoke) from airways, thereby preventing respiratory infection. A wet/chesty cough means mucus or sputum is produced to help clear the airways.
Mahaq 100 mg/2.5 mg/8 mg Tablet contains Guaiphenesin (expectorant), Terbutaline (bronchodilator) and Bromhexine (mucolytic agent or cough thinner). Guaiphenesin works by increasing the volume of fluid in the airways, reducing the stickiness of mucus and helping to remove it from the airways. Terbutaline relaxes muscles and widens the airways. Thereby, it makes breathing easier. Bromhexine works by thinning and loosening phlegm (mucus) in the lungs, windpipe and nose. Thereby, it helps to cough out easily.
