7198-02 BISCOMIN SYRUP 4MG/5ML NAME AND STRENGTH OF ACTIVE INGREDIENT(S): Each 5ml contains: Bromhexine Hydrochloride…………………………………………………4mg PRODUCT DESCRIPTION: A colourless to slightly pinkish colour liquid with raspberry flavour and sweet taste. PHARMACODYNAMICS : Bromhexine is an expectorant/mucolytic agent. The drug is a benzylamine derivative (2-amino-3,5-dibromo-N-cyclohexyl N- methylbenzylamine hydrochloride) and also a derivative of vasicine and adhatodic acis, alkaloids obtained from the plant Adhatoda vasica. Following oral administration, bromhexine has increase sputum volume and reduced the viscosity of bronchial secretions in chronic bronchitis patients. The drug has been reported to induce hydrolytic depolymerization of mucoprotein fibers and stimulate activity of the ciliated epithelium. An increase in lysosomal activity facilitated by bromhexine has been postulated. Improvements in pulmonary function in bronchitis patients appear secondary to easier expectoration. An effect of bromhexine on increasing sputum concentrations of various antibiotics (e.g., oxytetracycline, erythromycin, ampicillin, amoxicillin) has also been reported. However, some of these effects (exocrine stimulation, increased sputum concentrations) have not been confirmed in some studies. It has been suggested that a metabolite of bromhexine, ambroxol, may contribute to enhanced secretion from exocrine glands during bromhexine administration. PHARMACOKINETICS: ABSORPTION Oral, well absorbed. Rapidly absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract. Peak plasma concentrations occur after about 1 hour following oral administration. DISTRIBUTION It is widely distributed to body tissues. Bromhexine is highly bound to plasma proteins. Bromhexine crosses blood-brain barrier and small amounts cross the placenta. METABOLISM Bromhexine undergoes extensive first-pass metabolism in the liver. Ambroxol is a metabolite of bromhexine. EXCRETION Bromhexine is excreted primarily in the urine as metabolites.
