SALCODYL SYRUP MAL19950247AZ DESCRIPTION: SYRUP Colour : Red Flavour : Rose CONTENT: Each 5 ml contains: Salbutamol Sulphate equivalent to Salbutamol ............ 1 mg Guaiphenesin ................................................... 50 mg Preservatives : Methyl Paraben 0.15% w/v & Propyl Paraben 0.02% w/v. Colouring Agent : Raspberry Red Flavouring Agent : Rose PHARMACODYNAMICS: Salbutamol is a directly acting sympathomimetic amine. Its main action is on the adrenergic receptors in the bronchi and the respiratory tract rather than on the cardiac receptor. For this reason it induces bronchodilation and inhibits bronchospasm in doses which do not produce marked cardiac acceleration. Guaiphenesin has an expectorant action which increases the output of respiratory tract fluid by reducing adhesiveness and surface tension. The increase flow of less viscid secretions promotes ciliary action and facilitates the removal of mucus. This changes a dry unproductive cough to a cough that is more productive and less frequent. PHARMACOKINETICS: Salbutamol is rapidly absorbed after oral administration. After an oral dose of 4 to 8 mg, peak plasma concentrations of about 23 ng/ml for unchanged drug and 50 to 100 ng/ml for unchanged drug plus metabolite are attained in 2.5 to 3 hour. Plasma half- life is 2 to 7 hour. Salbutamol is metabolised by first pass metabolism, the reactions and metabolites involved are not yet identified. About 75 to 95% of an oral dose is excreted in the urine and about 4% in the faeces in 3 days. Following oral administration, 50 to 60% of the urinary excreted material is metabolised. Guaiphenesin is readily absorbed from gastrointestinal tract. It is rapidly metabolised and excreted in the urine. INDICATION: Relief of productive and wheezing cough associated with pneumonia, influenza and acute respiratory infections. RECOMMENDED DOSE: Adults : 2 to 4 teaspoonfuls (10 ml – 20 ml) 2 to 3 times daily. Children 2-6 years : 1 to 2 teaspoonfuls (5 ml – 10 ml) 2 to 3 times daily. 6-12 years : 2 teaspoonfuls Baca dokumen lengkap
