What is Bromhexine?

Bromhexine is a synthetic mucolytic medication developed to thin and mobilise the dense mucus that builds up during certain respiratory conditions. It belongs to a class of drugs that alter the consistency of bronchial secretions, making them less sticky and easier to expel through coughing. The substance has been available internationally for many years and was originally launched under the brand name Bisolvon.

What Bromhexine Is Used For

Bromhexine is indicated for respiratory conditions where mucus becomes abnormally thick and difficult to clear. It is commonly used in the management of acute and chronic bronchitis, as well as other conditions involving viscous airway secretions. You can read more about the types of conditions it addresses here: Respiratory Tract Disorders Associated with Viscid Mucus.

How Does Bromhexine Work?

Inside your airways, bromhexine acts on the mucus-producing cells to change the composition of secretions. It breaks down the thick, gel-like mucus into a thinner consistency so that the tiny hair-like structures lining your bronchi, called cilia, can move it upward and out more effectively. For you, this means a less blocked chest and a more productive cough that actually clears the congestion.
