Guaifenesin, Terbutaline

Guaifenesin and Terbutaline is a combination medication used to treat respiratory symptoms such as cough and wheezing. Guaifenesin, an expectorant, works by thinning and loosening mucus in the airways, making it easier to cough up and clear. Terbutaline, a bronchodilator, helps relax and open the airways, making breathing easier for those with conditions like asthma or chronic bronchitis. This medication is typically prescribed for short-term use and should not be used to treat coughs caused by allergies or colds lasting less than seven days. It is important to follow the doctor’s instructions and not exceed the recommended dosage to avoid potential side effects such as increased heart rate, tremors, or nausea.
