Medicine Description bronchofree 100mg
Bronchofree 100mg Capsule is a medication that combines four active ingredients: benzonatate, diphenhydramine, guaifenesin, and phenylephrine. Benzonatate acts as a cough suppressant by anesthetizing the stretch receptors in the lungs and pleura, reducing the cough reflex. Diphenhydramine is an antihistamine that alleviates allergy symptoms and also possesses sedative properties that can help calm a cough during allergy or cold episodes. Guaifenesin is an expectorant that assists in thinning and loosening mucus in the airways, making it easier to expel, thereby promoting clearer breathing. Lastly, phenylephrine is a decongestant that narrows the blood vessels in the nasal passages to reduce swelling and congestion. Together, these ingredients work synergistically to relieve cough, nasal congestion, and related symptoms associated with respiratory tract infections and allergies.
