Vescadril-AT (Ambroxol HCl, Terbutaline Sulphate & Guaiphenesin) is used for the treatment of productive cough associated with bronchitis, bronchial asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and emphysema. Ambroxol is a mucolytic agent that liquifies thick tenacious sputum. It improves the mucociliary clearance of secretions. It acts by reducing the viscosity of the sputum.

Terbutaline is a bronchodilator and an active beta-2 adrenoceptor agonist. Guaiphenesin is an expectorant which acts by increasing the output of sputum and bronchial secretions by reducing the adhesiveness and surface tension. The increased flow of less viscid secretions also promotes ciliary action. Menthol produces a cooling effect on the throat.
