MECHANISM OF ACTION: Ambroxol facilitates mucociliary clearance by intensifying the motion of the cilia present on the ciliated respiratory epithelium. Loratadine is a long-acting tricyclic antihistamine with selective peripheral histamine H1-receptor antagonistic activity. By reducing the viscosity of secretions, Guaiphenesin increases the efficiency of the mucociliary mechanism in removing accumulated secretions from the upper and lower airway. Guaiphenesin also acts as an expectorant and helps loosen up phlegm making it easier to cough it up.
