How It Works
Mucotab AB Tablet contains two active ingredients — acebrophylline and acetylcysteine. Acebrophylline acts as a bronchodilator and mucolytic, relaxing the airway muscles and breaking down thick mucus to ease breathing. Acetylcysteine works by thinning and loosening mucus, making it easier to cough out. Together, they improve airflow, reduce inflammation, and make breathing more comfortable.
