Hello,

Levolin(Levo salbutamol) is a bronchodilated. It helps to relieve the cough due to airway constriction.

It is helpful in condition like asthma, bronchospasm and COPD.

Cough during intake of water is due to cough reflex.

In this condition Anti tissues should be used not levolin.

I find this answer helpful
