Product Description

Acocontin Tab belongs to a class of drugs called 'mucolytic agents' (cough/sputum thinner) primarily used to treat acute (short term) and chronic (long term) respiratory diseases associated with excess mucus. Acute respiratory diseases are initially associated with dry, irritating cough, hoarseness in laryngitis (swelling of the voice box) or burning sensation in chest due to bronchitis (swelling of the lining of bronchial tubes). Then, wet mucus forms and continuous coughing out of sputum occurs. In chronic respiratory diseases, both dry irritating cough and wet cough with mucus occur.

Take Acocontin Tab preferably with food to avoid stomach upset and swallow whole with a glass of water. Do not crush, chew or break it. If you are prescribed syrup, take it with a measuring cup. Your doctor will recommend you how often you take Acocontin Tab based on your medical condition. Some people may experience nausea, taste change, numbness in mouth, tongue and throat. Most of these side effects of Acocontin Tab do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your doctor.

Acocontin Tab contains Ambroxol that works by thinning and loosening phlegm (mucus) in lungs, windpipe and nose. Acocontin Tab breakdown the acid mucopolysaccharide fibres that make the mucous (sputum) thinner and less dense/viscous removing sputum efficiently by coughing. However, the viscosity of sputum remains low for as long as treatment is maintained.
