About Butabrom 100 mg/4 mg/2.5 mg Tablet

BROMHEXINE+ETOFYLLINE+SALBUTAMOL is a respiratory combination primarily used to treat bronchospasm (wheezing, chest tightness, trouble breathing) in bronchitis, asthma, and chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases (COPD). Bronchitis is the inflammation of bronchial tubes, which carry air to and from the lungs. Asthma is a breathing problem in which airways narrow, swell, and produce extra mucus, leading to difficulty breathing. COPD is a group of progressive lung diseases with emphysema (shortness of breath) and chronic bronchitis.

BROMHEXINE+ETOFYLLINE+SALBUTAMOL consists of two medicines: Bromhexine, Etofylline nicotinate, and Salbutamol. Bromhexine is a 'mucolytic agent' and an 'expectorant' that makes sputum less viscous and makes it easier to cough out. Salbutamol and Etofylline nicotinate belong to the class of drugs known as 'bronchodilators.' They work by widening and relaxing the airways (bronchi) of the lungs.
