Actions
Kafbin,
being an effective expectorant and having a pronounced bronchocleansing
action, offers a rational approach in the treatment of chronic
obstructive pulmonary diseases. As a very powerful mucolytic,
Kafbin
liquefies
tenacious sputum and helps in expectoration. Kafbin
is
also a moderate but effective brochodilator. It relieves bronchospasms
and thus reduces chances of asthmatic attacks-an important
factor in the treatment of Copd. Kafbin
also
reduces inflammation of the upper as well as lower respiratory
tracts and reduces congestion of the respiratory mucous membrane.
Being a powerful pharyngeal
demulcent, Kafbin
glutionously
and soothingly coats the pharynx and removes irritation.
Indications
Kafbin
is
useful in the treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases
like chronic bronchitis, bronchial asthma, asthma with chronic
bronchitis, bronchiectasis; cough due to pulmonary tuberculosis
or caused by irritants; cough due to pharyngitis/laryngitis;
pertusis.
Dosage
Adults:
2 teaspoonfuls twice daily. In very severe conditions,
the dosage may
be increased to 2 teaspoonfuls thrice daily.
Children:
4 months to 1 year : 1/2 teaspoonful
twice daily
1 year to 5 years : 1/2 to 1 teaspoonful
twice daily
6 to 14 years : 1 to 1½ teaspoonfuls
twice daily
or as directed by the physician.
Incase
of productive cough, for still better results, it may preferably
be taken with half a cup of luke warm water. For non-productive
cough, it should be taken undiluted.
