1. What is PULNOZIN MUCO Lemon Flavor and what is it used for
PULNOZIN MUCO Lemon Flavor contains the active substance carbocisteine. This substance belongs to a group of medicines called "mucolytics", and its action is to reduce the viscosity of mucus (phlegm). This makes it easier to remove mucus from the airways when coughing (so-called mucolytic action). PULNOZIN MUCO Lemon Flavor is used for the symptomatic treatment of respiratory system diseases characterized by excessive production of thick and viscous mucus in adults and adolescents over 12 years of age. If there is no improvement or the patient feels worse after 5 days, they should consult their doctor.
