Anis oil, dilute ammonia solution, liquorice (Pectorales elixir) oral solution – [25 ml vial]

Description

Chest elixir Pharmacodynamics
The expectorant effect of the chest elixir is due to the action of its constituent components:
– licorice thick extract has anti-inflammatory and expectorant properties, which are due to the content in the roots of glycyrrhizin, which stimulates the activity of the ciliated epithelium in the trachea and bronchi, and increases the secretory function of the mucous membranes of the upper airways;
– Anise oil has an expectorant effect due to the content of anetol in the oil, which contributes to reflex excitation of breathing, increased activity of the ciliary epithelium of the respiratory tract and increased secretion of the mucous membranes of the larynx, trachea, bronchi;
– Ammonia has an irritant effect, which leads to excitation of sensory nerve endings of the upper respiratory tract and reflex stimulation of the respiratory center.
