About Ascoril LD Syrup
Ascoril LD Syrup is used to treat dry cough. Coughing (dry or productive) is the body’s way of clearing irritants (like allergens, mucus, or smoke) from airways and preventing infection. There are two types of coughs, namely: Dry cough and chesty cough. A dry cough is tickly and doesn’t produce any vicious or thick mucus, while a chesty cough (wet cough) means mucous or sputum is produced to help clear your airways.
Ascoril LD Syrup is a combination of two drugs: Levodropropizine (cough suppressant) and Chlorpheniramine (antihistamine). Levodropropizine belongs to the class of cough suppressants that work by blocking the transmission of nerve signals from the cough centre in the brain to the muscles that produce cough. Chlorpheniramine belongs to the class of antihistamines (anti-allergic drugs) that works by blocking the action of histamine, a substance responsible for causing allergic reactions.
Take Ascoril LD Syrup as prescribed. Your doctor will recommend how often you take Ascoril LD Syrup based on your medical condition. Some people may experience dry mouth, drowsiness, vomiting, blurred vision, constipation, dizziness, or tiredness. Most of these side effects of Ascoril LD Syrup do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your doctor.
If you are allergic to Ascoril LD Syrup or any other medicines, please tell your doctor. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, it is advised to inform your doctor before using Ascoril LD Syrup . Ascoril LD Syrup is not recommended for children below 2 years of age. Drink plenty of fluids while taking Ascoril LD Syrup to loosen mucus and protect yourself from being dehydrated or overheated during exercise and in hot weather, as Ascoril LD Syrup contains chlorpheniramine that decreases sweating and increases the risk of heatstroke.
