About Tag Syrup

Tag Syrup is a combination medication used to treat a productive cough associated with bronchial asthma, bronchiectasis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), bronchitis (inflammation of bronchial tubes), and emphysema (shortness of breath). Coughing (dry or productive) is the body's way of clearing irritants (like allergens, mucus or smoke) from airways and preventing infection.

Tag Syrup consists of Ambroxol hydrochloride, Terbutaline sulphate, Guaiphenesin, and Menthol. Ambroxol hydrochloride is a mucolytic agent that makes sputum less viscous, making it easier to cough out. Terbutaline sulphate is a bronchodilator that works by widening and relaxing the airways of the lungs. Guaiphenesin is an expectorant that reduces the thickness/viscosity of bronchial secretions (phlegm) and increases mucus flow, making coughing easier. Menthol relieves throat irritation.

Your doctor will decide the dose and duration of the course based on the severity of your condition. In some cases, Tag Syrup may cause common side effects like nausea, diarrhoea, vomiting, stomach discomfort, sweating, muscle cramps, dizziness, and headache. These side effects do not require medical attention and can be resolved over time. However, if the side effects persist, contact your doctor.

Let your doctor know if you have any allergic reactions to Tag Syrup or any other medication. Inform your doctor if you have heart, liver, kidney diseases, stomach ulcers, seizures (fits), high blood pressure, thyroid disorders, diabetes, inflammation of air passages, lung disorders, and difficulty breathing before taking Tag Syrup . Check with your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Avoid alcohol while taking Tag Syrup , since it can worsen side effects like dizziness and sleepiness.
