Pharmacological action
Codelac Broncho – a combined drug for the treatment of cough, has a mucolytic and expectorant effect, and also has anti-inflammatory activity. The action of CodelacBroncho is determined by the pharmacological properties of its components:
Ambroxol has a secretory, secretolytic and expectorant effect, normalizes the disturbed ratio of serous and mucous components of sputum, increases secretion of surfactant in the alveoli. Reduces the viscosity of sputum and promotes its discharge.
Glycyrrhite (glycyrrhizic acid and its salts) has anti-inflammatory and antiviral effects. It has a cytoprotective effect due to antioxidant and membrane stabilizing activity. It potentiates the action of endogenous glucocorticosteroids, providing anti-inflammatory and anti-allergic effects. Due to its pronounced anti-inflammatory activity, it helps to reduce the inflammatory process in the respiratory tract.
Thermopsis extract has an expectorant effect, providing a moderate irritant effect on the receptors of the gastric mucosa, reflexively increases the secretion of bronchial glands.
