Indications / Uses
FLUCYSTEINE Acetylcysteine 200mg is used for the treatment of respiratory disorders characterized by thick and viscous hypersecretions. It is effectively applied in cases of acute and chronic bronchitis, pulmonary emphysema, and bronchiectasis to facilitate the expulsion of phlegm. By breaking down the chemical bonds in mucus, it reduces viscosity and aids in clearing the airways for easier breathing. It is also utilized in conditions where a powerful mucolytic action is required to manage respiratory congestion.
