1. What is ALDOBRONQUIAL 2mg/5 ml syrup and what is it used for
ALDOBRONQUIAL syrup contains salbutamol as the active ingredient. It belongs to a group of medications called bronchodilators.
ALDOBRONQUIAL syrup is indicated for the prevention and symptomatic treatment of bronchial spasm (closure of airways in the lungs) associated with asthma attacks and in processes associated with reversible obstruction of the airways. These are a group of lung diseases that cause inflammation of the airways, resulting in a blockage of airflow in the lungs.

The very common, common, and uncommon side effects have been identified from clinical trial data. The rare and very rare events come from spontaneous reports.
