WHAT MUCOTEX IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
Mucotex 250 mg/5 ml syrup contains a medicine called carbocisteine.
This belongs to a group of
medicines called “mucolytics” used in the antibacterial treatment
of respiratory infections, in the
presence of bronchial hypersecretion. It works by making the mucus
(catarrh) less sticky. This
makes the mucus easier to exit when coughing.
Mucotex syrup is used for problems in the airways when there is too
much mucus or when it is too
sticky.
You must talk to your doctor if you do not feel better or if you feel
worse.
