Bromhexine hydrochloride is a medication prescribed for coughs which works by dissolving hard phlegm. This tends to be given to those with respiratory diseases who have difficulty coughing this out otherwise – by breaking it down it becomes smaller and easier to expel and this means they can breathe without their airways being blocked while also providing cough relief

Bromhexine Effects
Bromhexine is secretolytic, increasing the production of serous mucus in the respiratory tract and makes the phlegm thinner and less viscous. This contributes to a secretomotoric effect by helping the cilia transport the phlegm out of the lungs. For this reason it is often added to cough syrups.
