Ascoril plus syrup
Hi,
I have allergic/bronchial cough problem for 12 yrs. Coughing starts in winters and gets severe. This year it started in November. Medicines/inhalers don't help much.
This time I tried Ascoril plus syrup expectorant and surprisingly I saw some improvement in cough. It is such a big relief..though i can see about 50% relief so far, I hope it will help if I continue to take it.
I have been taking it 3 times a day (10 ml) for last 3 days.
My question is - how long can I take this medicine and what should be the dosage? As a side effect of this medicine, I can feel tremors in my hands.

Hi. I understand your concern. Ascoril or any cough syrup is not the solution for allergic bronchitis. Do a online consult for a detailed analysis of your symptoms and to suggest you further management plan and treatment for the same
