Action
These medicines contain carbocisteine, a medicine that causes phlegm to be less thick and sticky and thus easier to cough up and expel. Carbocisteine, in an in vitro study (outside the living organism), was shown to have significantly reduced the ability of bacteria to adhere to human pharyngeal cells.
