Acebrophylline is a xanthine derivative with bronchodilator and mucolytic properties. It works by inhibiting phosphodiesterase enzymes, leading to an increase in cyclic AMP levels. This process helps keep the airways clear and makes breathing easier.
Fexofenadine is a selective histamine H1-receptor antagonist with antiallergic effects. It essentially blocks histamine H1-receptors, preventing histamine-mediated allergic symptoms.
Montelukast is a leukotriene receptor antagonist that reduces inflammation and bronchoconstriction. It binds to cysteinyl leukotriene receptors in the lungs and bronchial tubes, inhibiting bronchoconstriction and reducing inflammation.
