Solmux® Broncho is a combination of salbutamol sulfate (a bronchodilator) and carbocisteine (a mucolytic). Bronchodilators help to relax and expand the airways to make breathing easier. Mucolytics work by thinning and loosening up thick mucus or phlegm making it easier to expel and clear out of the airways.
Take Solmux® Broncho by mouth as directed by your doctor. Do not take it in larger amounts or for longer than recommended. Follow the directions on your prescription label.
Consult your doctor for any information on the label that you do not clearly understand.

While using this drug, tell your doctor if:
Pregnancy
There have been reports of congenital abnormalities in children of mothers who were treated with salbutamol. However, these mothers were also receiving other medications so the evidence salbutamol causing these defects is inconsistent. Salbutamol may interfere with uterine contraction and should not be given during labor. Carbocisteine use has not been studied in pregnant patients and its safety has not been established.
Only take this product if the potential benefit outweighs the potential risks, as determined by your doctor.
