Bromhexine is a mucolytic drug used to decrease the viscosity of mucus in the airway, enhancing mucus clearance.
Bromhexine acts on the mucus at the formative stages in the glands, within the mucus-secreting cells. Bromhexine disrupts the structure of acid mucopolysaccharide fibers in mucoid sputum and produces a less viscous mucus, which is easier to expectorate.

Treatment of bronchopulmonary diseases or conditions associated with abnormal mucous secretion and clearance.

Adults: 1 teaspoonful 2- 3 times daily or as directed by physician.
Children (6 years and above): according to age, ½ to one teaspoonful, 2-3 times daily or as directed by physician.
Children (below 6 years): as directed by physician.
