INTRODUCTION ABOUT KEP LS SYRUP

It lowers the phlegm thickness and makes it easier to cough out. It also relaxes the smooth muscle in the bronchial tubes, relieving shortness of breath or difficulty breathing.

HOW KEP LS SYRUP WORKS
Ambroxol is mucolytic, lowers the phlegm thickness, and makes it easier to cough out. Guaifenesin is an expectorant that works by thinning the mucus in the airways to make it easier to cough up the mucus and make breathing easier. Levosalbutamol works by relaxing the smooth muscle in the bronchial tubes and relieving shortness of breath or difficulty breathing.

Ensure proper hydration, as dehydration can cause dizziness. Avoid excessive caffeine, alcohol, and high-sodium foods, which can exacerbate symptoms. Engage in physical therapy or vestibular rehabilitation exercises designed to improve balance and reduce dizziness. Move slowly when changing positions, such as standing up or lying down, to avoid triggering dizziness. Practice relaxation techniques such as deep breathing, meditation, or yoga to manage stress, which can contribute to dizziness. Consult your doctor if dizziness persists.
Headache
Ensure adequate fluid intake, as dehydration can cause headaches. Maintain a consistent sleep schedule, aiming for 7-9 hours of quality sleep per night. Eat balanced meals at regular intervals to avoid blood sugar fluctuations that can trigger headaches. Practice relaxation techniques such as meditation, yoga, or deep breathing exercises to reduce stress levels. Engage in regular physical exercise, which can help reduce the frequency and severity of headaches. Apply a cold pack or warm compress to the forehead or neck to alleviate pain.
Nausea And Vomiting
Stay hydrated with small sips of clear fluids like water, ginger ale, or electrolyte solutions. Avoid consuming large meals; instead, opt for bland, easy-to-digest foods. Ginger, peppermint, or chamomile tea may help soothe the stomach. Rest in a comfortable position, preferably with your head elevated, to ease symptoms. Consult your doctor if nausea and vomiting persist.
