How Brostin works
Brostin is a mucolytic medication. It thins and loosens mucus (phlegm) in the nose, windpipe and lungs making it easier to cough out.
- Brostin helps in thinning and removal of the mucus (slimy and sticky substance) from the airways, thereby treats various respiratory conditions.
- Measure the syrup with a special dose-measuring spoon or cup, not a regular table spoon.
- Inform your doctor if you have suffered or are currently suffering from any stomach, liver or kidney problem.
- Do not use Brostin for more than 14 days, without your doctor’s advice.
- Tell your doctor if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant or are breastfeeding.
