Medicine Description bisolvon 8mg
Bisolvon 8mg Tablets is a medication that contains bromhexine, a mucolytic agent that works by breaking down mucus in the airways. This action reduces the viscosity of mucus, making it easier to expel through coughing. Bromhexine stimulates the production of serous mucus in the respiratory tract, enhancing ciliary activity which helps clear mucus from the bronchi. By facilitating the clearance of secretions, Bisolvon aids in improving airflow and alleviating respiratory distress associated with various pulmonary conditions.
