    – Expectorant Effect: Stimulates mucus clearance from the respiratory tract.

    – Relief of Chest Congestion: Helps decrease discomfort caused by mucus accumulation.

    – Improves Breathing: Clears airways, allowing better airflow and oxygen exchange.

    – Supports Recovery: Facilitates faster recovery from respiratory infections by improving mucus clearance.

 
3. Dosage and Administration

4. Mechanism of Action
CENTILUK SYRUP acts through:

    – Mucolytic agents that break the disulfide bonds in mucus glycoproteins, reducing thickness.

    – Increased hydration of the respiratory tract lining, facilitating mucus mobilization.

    – Stimulation of ciliary activity in the respiratory tract to enhance mucus clearance.
