Product Overview
Mucinac Effervescent is a pharmaceutical preparation containing Acetylcysteine as its active ingredient. These effervescent tablets are formulated to dissolve in water, offering a convenient and palatable method of drug delivery.
Therapeutic Applications
This medication is primarily indicated for reducing mucus viscosity in respiratory tract conditions. It is particularly effective in managing chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), bronchitis, and other respiratory disorders characterized by excessive mucus accumulation.
Mechanism of Action
The active constituent, Acetylcysteine, functions as a potent mucolytic agent. It achieves its therapeutic effect by cleaving disulfide bonds within mucoprotein molecules, thereby reducing mucus thickness and elasticity. This action facilitates easier expectoration and airway clearance.
