Bromhexine Hydrochloride is a compound that functions as an expectorant in experiment. It acts by increasing the production of respiratory tract secretions, which helps to liquefy and facilitate the removal of mucus. At the molecular level, Bromhexine Hydrochloride works by stimulating the activity of serous cells in the mucous glands, leading to an increase in the volume and fluidity of the mucus. This mechanism of action aids in the clearance of mucus from the airways, making it easier to study the effects of various compounds on respiratory function. Bromhexine Hydrochloride modulates the rheological properties of mucus, which can be beneficial in experimental models aimed at understanding the pathophysiology.
