Pharmacological action

Bromhexine has a mucolytic (secretolytic) and expectorant effect. The mucolytic effect is associated with the depolymerization and liquefaction of mucoprotein and mucopolysaccharide fibers.

Bromhexine has a mild antitussive effect. It stimulates the production of endogenous surfactant, which ensures the stability of alveolar cells during respiration. The clinical effect is manifested after 2-5 days from the start of treatment with the drug.

When taken orally, bromhexine is almost completely absorbed (99%) within 30 minutes. Bioavailability is 20-25% (effect of the first passage through the liver).

In plasma, bromhexine strongly binds to 95% proteins, penetrates the blood-brain and placental barriers. In the liver, bromhexine undergoes demethylation and oxidation. The half-life is 15 hours due to slow back diffusion from the tissues. It is excreted by the kidneys.

In chronic renal failure, the excretion of Bromhexine metabolites is impaired. With repeated use, bromhexine can accumulate.
