Product Introduction
Mucomix Ace Tablet contains the active components N-Acetylcysteine and Acebrophylline. It is indicated for the treatment and prevention of asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disorder (COPD) symptoms, including coughing, wheezing, and shortness of breath. It is also used in other respiratory conditions such as bronchitis (inflammation of lung air passages causing cough and mucus production), emphysema (a lung condition characterised by damaged air sacs leading to breathlessness), and bronchiectasis (enlargement of bronchial tubes due to infections, resulting in chronic cough and mucus production). This medication may also prevent mucus plugs from forming following surgery or a heart attack.
Patients with allergies to either of the active ingredients in Mucomix Ace Tablet should not use this medication. It should be avoided in cases of severe asthma, peptic ulcer, haemorrhagic disease, and severe renal or hepatic impairment. Bronchospasm may occur in some patients, particularly those with a history of bronchospasm, therefore cautious use is important in these individuals.
Use in pregnancy and breastfeeding should be avoided unless medically necessary. While Mucomix Ace Tablet can be used in elderly patients, cautious use is recommended. It may be used in children aged 6 years and above, though cautious use is advised.

How it works
Mucomix ace tablet is a combination of two drugs. N-acetylcysteine works by breaking down the disulfide bonds that hold mucus together. This makes the mucus thinner and easier to cough out. It also has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, which can be helpful for people with respiratory conditions. Acebrophylline works by relaxing the smooth muscles in the airways. This makes the airways wider, making it easier to breathe. Acebrophylline also has a mucolytic effect, which helps to loosen mucus.
How to Use
