Bromhexine + Phenylephrine + Salbutamol is a multi-purpose respiratory relief combination.
Bromhexine is a mucolytic agent. It brings down the stickiness and thickness of mucus (phlegm) in the nose, windpipe, and lungs, aiding its expulsion during a cough.
Phenylephrine is a decongestant. It shrinks the swollen blood vessels in the nasal passages, which in turn decreases stuffiness and congestion in the nose.
Salbutamol is a bronchodilator. It relaxes the muscles lining the airways that carry air to the lungs, causing them to open wider and thus making breathing easier.
