What is Kofolex LA Syrup?
Kofolex LA Syrup is a combination of three medicines: Ambroxol, Levosalbutamol / Levalbuterol, and Guaifenesin. It is used in the treatment of cough with mucus. Ambroxol is a mucolytic, which thins and loosens the mucus (phlegm), making it easier to cough out. Levosalbutamol is a bronchodilator and works by relaxing the muscles of the airways to widen them. Guaifenesin is an expectorant that decreases the stickiness of the mucus (phlegm) and helps remove it easily from the airways.
