Product Overview
Erdostyne Oral Suspension 60 ml is a mucolytic medication used to manage chronic bronchitis and related respiratory conditions. It helps thin and loosen thick mucus in the airways, making it easier to cough up and clear the lungs. Chronic bronchitis is a long-term inflammation of the bronchi, often classified as a form of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
The active ingredient, Erdosteine, works by reducing the viscosity of sputum and enhancing mucociliary clearance, which helps improve airflow and ease breathing.
Uses
Chronic Bronchitis: Helps manage symptoms such as persistent cough and thick mucus, reducing airway obstruction.
Respiratory Tract Infections with Thick Mucus: Assists in clearing viscous secretions in conditions like sinusitis and bronchitis, improving airflow.
How It Works
Erdosteine, the active component in Erdostyne, acts as a mucolytic agent. It breaks down the structure of thick mucus in the respiratory tract, making it less sticky and easier to expel. It also supports the natural movement of cilia in the airways, promoting mucus clearance and relieving breathing discomfort.
