You're reading an Auto-translation.

Composition. The active substance is bromhexine hydrochloride. Each tablet contains bromhexine hydrochloride 8 mg. The other components are: lactose monohydrate, microcrystalline cellulose, corn starch, magnesium stearate and talc.

Therapeutic indications.

Bromhexin Labormed is indicated in acute and chronic respiratory tract conditions, accompanied by viscous secretions.

Bromhexine reduces the viscosity of bronchial secretions. The mucus becomes more fluid. Bromhexine has a stimulating effect on bronchial mucus, leading to a more fluid bronchial secretion. Furthermore, the drainage of surfactant substances from the pulmonary and bronchial alveoli is facilitated. Together with the activation of the ciliary epithelium of the bronchial mucosa, these mechanisms maintain and increase the clearance capacity of the pulmonary airways. With its diluting and expectorant action, it facilitates and accelerates the elimination of mucus from the pulmonary alveoli.

It can also be useful pre- and post-operatively in the case of surgical interventions on the lung, respiratory tract or in the oto-rhino-laryngeal (ear-nose-throat) area for the prophylaxis of complications in the respiratory system.

The administration of bromhexine in the case of bronchoradiographies significantly reduces the elimination time of contrast substances and implicitly the unwanted side effects due to them.

If after 7 days you do not feel better or feel worse, you should consult your doctor.
