bromhexine and Peritonitis

bromhexine has been researched along with Peritonitis in 1 studies

Bromhexine: A mucolytic agent used in the treatment of respiratory disorders associated with viscid or excessive mucus. (From Martindale, The Extra Pharmacopoeia, 30th ed, p744)
bromhexine : A substituted aniline that is 2,4-dibromoaniline which is substituted at position 6 by a [cyclohexyl(methyl)amino]methyl group. It is used (as the monohydrochloride salt) as a mucolytic for the treatment of respiratory disorders associated with productive cough (i.e. a cough characterised by the production of sputum).

Peritonitis: INFLAMMATION of the PERITONEUM lining the ABDOMINAL CAVITY as the result of infectious, autoimmune, or chemical processes. Primary peritonitis is due to infection of the PERITONEAL CAVITY via hematogenous or lymphatic spread and without intra-abdominal source. Secondary peritonitis arises from the ABDOMINAL CAVITY itself through RUPTURE or ABSCESS of intra-abdominal organs.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Ambroxol, a drug capable of elevating the phospholipid content in healthy rabbit lungs, was tested on two models of experimental lung injury, lung changes in sepsis induced by a peritonitis and in bromcarbamide intoxication."3.67Ambroxol increases the choline but not fatty acid incorporation into lung phospholipids in experimental lung disorders. ( Müller, B; von Wichert, P; Wilke, A, 1987)
