4 Drug and Medication Information
4.1 Drug Indication

Ambroxol is indicated for secretolytic therapy in bronchoplmonary disease with abnormal mucus secretion and transport. It allows the mucus to be more easily cleared and ease a patient's breathing.


5 Pharmacology and Biochemistry
5.1 MeSH Pharmacological Classification

Expectorants

Agents that increase mucous excretion. Mucolytic agents, that is drugs that liquefy mucous secretions, are also included here. (See all compounds classified as Expectorants.)

5.6 Mechanism of Action

Ambroxol is a mucolytic agent. Excessive Nitric oxide (NO) is associated with inflammatory and some other disturbances of airways function. NO enhances the activation of soluble guanylate cyclase and cGMP accumulation. Ambroxol has been shown to inhibit the NO-dependent activation of soluble guanylate cyclase. It is also possible that the inhibition of NO-dependent activation of soluble guanylate cyclase can suppress the excessive mucus secretion, therefore it lowers the phlegm viscosity and improves the mucociliary transport of bronchial secretions.
