Pharmacological effect Carbocisteine
Pharmacodynamics Carbocisteine
The mucolytic and expectant action is caused by activation of sial transferase, an enzyme of the goblet cells of the mucous membrane of the bronchi. Normalizes the quantitative ratio of acidic to neutral bronchial secretion sialomucins. It reduces the viscosity of the bronchial secretion and the nasal sinuses, eases sputum and mucus withdrawal, and reduces cough. Promotes regeneration of mucous membrane, normalizes its structure, activates the activity of the ciliated epithelium. Restores IgA immunoglobulin secretion (specific protection) and the number of sulfhydril groups of mucus components (non-specific protection), improves mucociliary clearance.
