Fluimucil Acetylcysteine NAC 600 mg Adult 10 sachets is a medicine indicated in adults for the treatment of bronchial disorders in which a reduction in the viscosity of bronchial secretions is necessary to facilitate expectoration, particularly during episodes of acute bronchitis.
Acetylcysteine is a mucolytic. Mucolytic activity is mediated by a reduction in bronchial mucus viscosity. This can be explained by depolymerization, with the opening of disulfide bridges between macromolecules. Acetylcysteine is also a precursor of glutathione. Acetylcysteine is derived from the naturally occurring amino acid cysteine, which is a substrate for glutathione synthesis in the body. Acetylcysteine can normalize glutathione depletion. Acetylcysteine is rapidly absorbed after oral administration and distributed throughout the body.

Acute bronchitis is an acute inflammation of the bronchial mucosa and often of the trachea, most often following a viral infection, particularly during the winter months. In some cases, especially in frail people or those with chronic respiratory problems, bronchitis may be due to a bacterial infection. Inflammation makes breathing more difficult, as the bronchial walls become swollen and produce large quantities of mucus.
Symptoms of bronchitis
Ginger + honey to eliminate phlegm
Ginger has powerful therapeutic properties. That's why it's often used to treat colds. Ginger also acts on stubborn mucus. It reduces coughing and soothes the respiratory tract.
Honey has antibacterial and antifungal properties: it's ideal if you're suffering from a sore throat or have a cold and are congested with mucus. Honey deposits a protective layer in your throat. This reduces irritation and helps repair damaged mucous membranes.
