Ambroxol
Ambroxol
This medicine is used for the relief of cough secondary to acute and chronic diseases of the respiratory tract accompanied by excessive lung secretions such as chronic bronchitis, asthmatic bronchitis and bronchial asthma.
This medicine contains Ambroxol, a mucolytic, which stimulates fluid secretion in the respiratory tract and breaks down mucus resulting in the production of less thick and less sticky mucus/phlegm. Ambroxol improves mucociliary clearance (mucus flow and transport) making phlegm easier to cough up and expel.
This medicine should be taken orally (by mouth). The dose depends on the type and severity of the disease.
