Carbex 120ml Suspension 100mg/5ml

Carbex Syrup is a medicinal suspension designed to provide relief from excessive mucus and respiratory discomfort associated with coughs and related conditions. Recommended for both adults and children (above 2 years), this syrup helps in managing thick, sticky mucus, making it easier to expel and improving breathing comfort. Produced by All Lab Tests, Carbex Syrup is a trusted solution for individuals struggling with respiratory tract disorders in Pakistan.

Composition / Ingredients

The active ingredient in Carbex Syrup is Carbocisteine, a mucolytic agent. Each 5ml of the suspension contains 100mg of Carbocisteine. Carbocisteine works by breaking down the chemical bonds in mucus, reducing its viscosity and promoting easier clearance from the respiratory tract.

While Carbex Syrup does not include vitamins directly, its formulation is designed to support respiratory health by facilitating effective mucus clearance. Proper mucus management indirectly helps maintain oxygenation and overall well being, especially for those with chronic respiratory conditions.

Key Components:

• Carbocisteine 100mg/5ml: Reduces mucus thickness, improving cough efficiency.

• Excipients: Formulated to ensure stability, palatability, and safe administration for adults and children.

How Carbex Syrup Works

Carbex Syrup works by targeting mucus production in the respiratory tract. Thick and sticky mucus can accumulate in the airways, making it difficult to breathe and increasing the risk of infection. Carbocisteine, the active ingredient, acts as a mucolytic agent, breaking down the mucus structure to reduce viscosity.

This mechanism allows mucus to be expelled more efficiently through coughing. Unlike cough suppressants, Carbex Syrup does not inhibit the natural cough reflex, which is essential for clearing mucus. By thinning the secretions rather than stopping the cough, Carbex Syrup promotes respiratory comfort and reduces the duration of respiratory tract symptoms.

Benefits of Carbex Syrup:

• Facilitates easy expulsion of mucus

• Supports normal respiratory function

• Reduces discomfort associated with thick phlegm

• Helps prevent secondary infections caused by mucus accumulation

Uses / Indications

Carbex Syrup is indicated for the adjunctive therapy of respiratory tract disorders characterized by excessive, viscous mucus. This includes:

• Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)

• Bronchitis

• Upper respiratory tract infections with thick phlegm

• Other conditions leading to mucus retention

It is suitable for adults and children over 2 years of age, though younger children should avoid use unless specifically prescribed by a physician. The syrup is particularly beneficial for individuals experiencing persistent cough with sticky or thick phlegm, as it aids in clearing airways efficiently.
