Adalin Syrup 120Ml

Aminophylline, a bronchodilator, relaxes airway smooth muscles by inhibiting phosphodiesterase, leading to increased intracellular cAMP. Ammonium chloride acts as an expectorant by reducing mucus viscosity, facilitating its clearance. Diphenhydramine, an antihistamine, blocks H1 receptors, providing symptomatic relief from allergies and suppressing the cough reflex. Together, these components synergistically contribute to airway patency, mucus clearance, and cough control.
