PHARMACOLOGY
Pharmacotherapeutic Group: Cough Preparation (Productive Cough)
Terbutaline Sulphate: Terbutaline is a bronchodilator; a medication that dilates (expands) air passages in the lungs. It attaches to beta adrenergic receptors on muscles surrounding the air passages, causing the muscles to relax and dilate the air passages. Wider air passages allow more air to flow in and out of the lungs.
Pharmacokinetics:
Bromhexine HCl: Bromhexine acts on the mucus at the formative stages in the glands, within the mucus-secreting cells. Bromhexine disrupts the structure of acid mucopolysaccharidefibres in mucoid sputum and produces less viscous mucus, which is easier to expectorate.
Pharmacokinetics:
