Mucogel Softgel Capsule 10's belongs to the class of drugs called 'mucolytic agents' (cough/sputum thinner), primarily used to prevent and treat symptoms of chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases (COPD), such as coughing, wheezing (a whistling sound when you breathe), and shortness of breath. COPD is a group of lung diseases that mainly include emphysema (shortness of breath) and chronic bronchitis (inflammation of the lining of your bronchial tubes).
Mucogel Softgel Capsule 10's consists of two mucolytic agents: Acetylcysteine and Ambroxol. Mucogel Softgel Capsule 10's works by thinning and loosening phlegm (mucus) in lungs, windpipe and nasal passage. Ambroxol is also an 'expectorant' that promotes the secretion of sputum/cough by air passages. Thus, Mucogel Softgel Capsule 10's makes sputum less viscous and promotes easier breathing.
