Tussistop Antitussive Syrup 100 ml

Description:

Tussistop Antitussive Syrup 100 ml (TUSSISTOP 30 mg/5 ml syrup) is a prescription antitussive medicine formulated with levodropropizine to relieve dry, irritating, non-productive cough. It acts directly on the peripheral cough pathways in the respiratory tract, reducing cough frequency and intensity without suppressing breathing. This oral syrup is suitable for adults and children as directed by a physician and is commonly used in the management of acute and chronic cough associated with respiratory infections or irritative conditions when a dry cough is present.

Indications:

• Symptomatic treatment of dry, non-productive cough.
• Relief of persistent, irritating cough that interferes with sleep or daily activities.
• Cough associated with upper or lower respiratory tract infections when cough is dry (e.g., pharyngitis, tracheitis, bronchitis) as assessed by a doctor.
• Management of cough in conditions where suppression of dry cough is clinically indicated and mucus production is minimal.

Active Ingredients / Key Components:

• Levodropropizine – 30 mg per 5 ml syrup.
• Excipients: The full list of inactive ingredients (such as sweeteners, flavoring agents, preservatives, and solvents) is not available in the provided information. Please refer to the product leaflet or outer carton for complete excipient details.

Dosage & Administration / How to Use:

• This product is for oral use only.
• Use the measuring cup or dosing device supplied with the bottle, if provided, to ensure accurate dosing.
• Adults and adolescents: Typical dosing regimens for levodropropizine syrups are usually divided into 3 doses per day; however, the exact dose, frequency, and duration must be determined by the prescribing physician based on age, body weight, and severity of symptoms.
• Children: Use only under medical supervision. Pediatric dosing is weight- and age-dependent and must follow the doctor’s instructions and the official product leaflet.
• May be taken with or without food, unless otherwise directed by your doctor.
• Do not exceed the recommended daily dose prescribed by your healthcare provider.
• Shake the bottle well before each use to ensure uniform distribution of the active ingredient.
• If a dose is missed, take it as soon as you remember unless it is almost time for the next dose. Do not double the dose to make up for a missed one.
• Do not use for prolonged periods without medical advice. If cough persists for more than a few days, worsens, or is accompanied by fever, rash, or persistent headache, consult your doctor.

Clinical Benefits:

• Provides effective relief from dry, non-productive cough by reducing cough frequency and intensity.
• Acts peripherally on cough receptors, helping to control cough without significantly depressing the central nervous system.
• Helps improve comfort during the day and supports restful sleep at night by reducing persistent, irritating cough.
• Useful as part of the symptomatic management of respiratory infections and irritative airway conditions when suppression of dry cough is clinically indicated.

Warnings & Contraindications:
