ambroxol and Respiratory Tract Diseases

ambroxol has been researched along with Respiratory Tract Diseases in 14 studies

Ambroxol: A metabolite of BROMHEXINE that stimulates mucociliary action and clears the air passages in the respiratory tract. It is usually administered as the hydrochloride.

Respiratory Tract Diseases: Diseases involving the RESPIRATORY SYSTEM.
