Uses of Bromhexine + Guaifenesin + Phenylephrine

How Bromhexine + Guaifenesin + Phenylephrine works

  • Bromhexine + Guaifenesin + Phenylephrine is a triple-action cough and cold medicine.

  • Bromhexine is a mucolytic agent. It works by breaking down the long chain-like structures in mucus, making it thinner. As a result, the mucus becomes less sticky and can be more easily removed from the body when you cough.

  • Guaifenesin is an expectorant. It increases the amount of mucus in the airways to make your cough more productive. It achieves this by stimulating receptors in the respiratory tract that increase mucus production.

  • Phenylephrine is a decongestant. It works by narrowing the blood vessels in your nasal passages. This reduces swelling and inflammation, decreases the production of mucus, and helps you breathe more easily through your nose.
