Pharmacology and toxicology
Pharmacological effects: This product is a metabolite of bromhexine in the body and has the property of promoting the elimination of mucocele and dissolving secretions. It can promote the elimination of viscous secretions in the respiratory tract and reduce the retention of mucus, thus significantly promoting drainage and improving breathing. When the product is used, the patient's mucus secretion can be restored to normal conditions. Cough and sputum levels are usually significantly reduced, and the surface active substances in the respiratory mucosa can thus exert their normal protective functions.
Toxicological effects: Ambroxol hydrochloride has a very low toxicity index in acute toxicity tests. Ames test and micronucleus test showed that ambroxol hydrochloride had no mutagenicity. Carcinogenicity studies in mice and rats showed that ambroxol hydrochloride is not carcinogenic.
