Bronchostop Antitussive and Expectorant 20 Soft Tablets

Bronchostop Antitussive and Expectorant (20 Soft Tablets)

ACTION AND MECHANISM

- Thyme: Expectorant, antispasmodic. Thyme favors the fluidization of bronchial secretions, by exerting an irritating effect on the bronchial epithelium, increasing the production of secretions. The expectorant effect could be facilitated by a relaxing activity of the bronchial smooth muscle, and a stimulation of the movements of the bronchial cilia.

- Altea (marshmallow): Antitussive, demulcent. The altea mucilage exerts a calming and moisturizing effect on the respiratory mucosa, inhibiting the cough reflex.

INDICATIONS

- For [PRODUCTIVE COUGH] associated with [COMMON COLD] and to relieve [DRY COUGH] in throat irritation.

Its use is based exclusively on traditional use.
