1. What is Apipulmol and what is it used for
Apipulmol is a syrup intended for adults. It has an expectorant and mucolytic effect, making it easier to
cough up mucus. It reduces the viscosity of mucus and facilitates its movement in the bronchi by
activating the ciliary function of the mucous membrane. The pine honey in the syrup enhances its
expectorant effect. The use of the syrup does not affect the bacterial flora of the gastrointestinal tract.
Indications for use: Inflammatory conditions of the upper respiratory tract, cough.
