Indications
Mucodyne syrup is a cough medication used to help treat conditions affecting your respiratory tract like chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) or cystic fibrosis.
Carbocisteine is a mucolytic medication that helps clear your airways by breaking up mucus and making it less sticky.
These actions make it easier for you to cough up phlegm to reduce symptoms of your respiratory condition. When taken daily, Mucodyne syrup helps treat breathing issues like COPD and cystic fibrosis.
Dosage and Administration
The dose of Mucodyne syrup that is prescribed will vary depending on the individual and severity of the respiratory condition being treated.

Do not take any more than prescribed without asking your healthcare provider.
