A combined preparation consisting of ingredients used for the symptomatic treatment of cough in various lung diseases. It has bronchodilatory, mucolytic and expectorant effects.

Salbutamol it has a bronchodilator effect by selective action on β₂- adrenergic receptors of the bronchi.

Bromhexine dilutes sputum, increases its volume. The mucolytic effect is due to the ability to depolymerize and dilute mucoproteins and mucopolysaccharide fibers.
