About Inhalex Respules 5x2 ml

Inhalex Respules 5x2 ml belongs to a class of drugs called 'mucolytic agents' (cough/sputum thinner) used to treat acute (short term) and chronic (long term) respiratory tract disease, spasmodic bronchostenosis (narrowing of bronchi), abnormal bronchial mucus production in conditions such as emphysema and bronchial asthma. Acute respiratory diseases are initially associated with dry, irritating cough, hoarseness in laryngitis (swelling of the voice box) or burning sensation in the chest due to bronchitis (swelling of the lining of bronchial tubes). Then, wet mucus forms and continuous coughing out of sputum occurs. In chronic respiratory diseases, both dry irritating cough and wet cough with mucus occur.

Inhalex Respules 5x2 ml contains Ambroxol that works by thinning and loosening phlegm (mucus) in the lungs, windpipe and nose. Inhalex Respules 5x2 ml breakdown the acid mucopolysaccharide fibres that make the mucous (sputum) thinner and less dense/viscous removing sputum efficiently by coughing.
