Q) How does KEP X DROPS work?
A) KEP X DROPS is a combination of three drugs: Ambroxol (Mucolytic agent), Terbutaline (Bronchodilator) and Guaiphenesin (Expectorant). Ambroxol loosens and thins the mucus making it easier to cough out. Terbutaline relaxes and widens the muscles in the airways making it easier to breathe. Guaiphenesin works by decreasing the stickiness of phlegm (mucus), thereby helps in its removal from the airways.
