1

Overview & Mechanism of Action

  • Basokof Syrup (200ml bottle) combines active bronchodilating, mucolytic, expectorant, and soothing agents to relieve chest tightness and clear hypersecretory airways:
  • Selective $\beta_2$-Adrenoreceptor Agonism (Terbutaline Sulfate): Relaxes bronchial smooth muscle, dilating narrowed airways to reduce airway resistance, relieve wheezing, and ease difficulty in breathing.
  • Mucolytic & Secretolytic Breakdown (Bromhexine Hydrochloride): Lyses mucopolysaccharide fibers within thick tracheobronchial secretions, reducing sputum viscosity and converting heavy mucus into a less tenacious liquid state.
  • Expectorant & Reflex Cleansing (Guaifenesin): Increases volume and reduces viscosity of respiratory tract secretions by stimulating bronchial secretory cells, facilitating effective expulsion of mucus via coughing.
  • Soothing Cooling Effect (Menthol): Provides localized cooling and mild anesthetic action on pharyngeal tissues, soothing throat irritation and easing coughing discomfort.

Clinical Indications

  • Basokof Syrup 200ml is indicated for:
  • Relief of productive (chesty) coughs associated with bronchospasm and hyperactive airways
  • Symptomatic treatment of acute bronchitis, exacerbations of chronic bronchitis, tracheobronchitis, and bronchial asthma
  • Facilitating sputum clearance in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) or respiratory infections with thick bronchial phlegm

Usage Guidance & Safety Precautions

  • Shake well before use. Measure the prescribed dose accurately using a calibrated measuring cup or spoon. Take after meals with a full glass of water to optimize mucus-thinning efficacy.
