What is Aerodil-LS Expectorant?
Aerodil-LS Expectorant contains Ambroxol, Levosalbutamol / Levalbuterol, and Guaifenesin. It is used to treat cough with phlegm (expectoration). Ambroxol is a mucolytic agent that thins and loosens mucus. Levosalbutamol is a bronchodilator that relaxes airway muscles and widens the airways. Guaifenesin is an expectorant that decreases the stickiness of phlegm to aid in its removal from the airways.
