How It Works
Broncholyte Syrup’s active ingredient, Bromhexine, functions as a potent mucolytic agent. It works by breaking down thick, sticky mucus in the airways, making it thinner and easier to expel. This action helps clear the respiratory tract, reducing congestion, and facilitating easier breathing across a spectrum of respiratory conditions.

Adults and Children over 10 years: 10 ml (2 teaspoonfuls) 3 times daily Children 5-10 years: 5 ml (1 teaspoonful) 3 times daily Children under 5 years: 2.5 ml (½ teaspoonful) 3 times daily Babies: 1.25 ml (¼ teaspoonful) 3 times daily
Take as directed or as advised by your healthcare provider. Use the measuring cup provided for accurate dosing.

- Mild gastrointestinal discomfort

Broncholyte Syrup is most effective when used as part of a comprehensive approach to respiratory health, including proper hydration, rest, and avoiding irritants like smoke.
