Wet Cough Syrup

2018-03-08 02:12:01
Doctor had prescribed me Bricarex A cough Syrup. It has following contents: Ambroxol Hydrochloride, Turbutaline Sulphate and Guaiphenesin. I know Ambroxol Hydrochloride acts as an expectorant, but Turbutaline causes shivering and sleeplessness to me. I noticed this content only after reaching home. Now again I do not want to rebook an appointment and drive there in traffic just to change a damn cough Syrup. Please suggest an alternative
