Description
What is Acefyl Syrup?
Acefyl Syrup 125ml contains Acefylline Piperazine, a xanthine-derivative bronchodilator used to manage bronchial asthma, chronic bronchitis, bronchospasm, and related obstructive airway diseases. It relaxes bronchial smooth muscle by inhibiting phosphodiesterase, raising cyclic AMP levels and reducing airway resistance. This is a plain bronchodilator formulation — it does not contain an antihistamine. Prescription required.
How Does Acefyl Syrup Work?
Acefylline Piperazine acts as a phosphodiesterase inhibitor: it prevents the breakdown of cyclic AMP in bronchial smooth muscle cells. Elevated cAMP leads to relaxation of airway musculature, bronchodilation and reduced mucosal inflammation. This widens constricted airways and eases breathing in obstructive respiratory conditions.
Uses of Acefyl Syrup
Indicated for: bronchial asthma, chronic bronchitis, obstructive airway disease, bronchospasm, and persistent productive cough due to bronchial inflammation. Also used as adjunctive therapy to reduce airway reactivity. Consult your doctor before use — prescription required.
Dosage & Administration
Shake well before use. Adults: 10–20 mL three times daily after meals. Children: dose by weight and age as prescribed by your physician. Do not exceed the recommended dose. Take after meals to reduce gastric discomfort. Continue for the full prescribed course even if symptoms improve. For guidance on respiratory syrups, browse our full range.
Side Effects
Generally well-tolerated at therapeutic doses. Possible effects include: nausea, gastric irritation (take with food), headache, dizziness, palpitations at high doses, and insomnia. Xanthine derivatives may cause tachycardia if overdosed. Report unusual symptoms to your doctor promptly.
Precautions
Use with caution in patients with cardiac arrhythmias, peptic ulcer disease, or hyperthyroidism. Avoid simultaneous use with other xanthine-containing products (e.g., theophylline) to prevent additive toxicity. Keep out of reach of children. Pregnancy and lactation: use only if clearly indicated by a physician. This is a prescription-only medicine — consult your doctor before starting or stopping therapy.
