Description
The active substance in BISOLVON is bromhexine, a synthetic derivative of the herbal active substance vasicin. Bromhexine accelerates expectoration and relieves cough. BISOLVON is used as a secretolytic (mucus liquefaction) and a secretomotor (accelerates the secretion of mucus from the respiratory tract) in acute and chronic diseases of the bronchi and lungs with disease-altered mucus secretion and its transmission.
Do not take BISOLVON:
– if you are allergic (hypersensitive) to bromhexine hydrochloride or any of the other ingredients of BISOLVON, – if you have a rare inherited disease that may be incompatible with any of the other ingredients.
Take special care with BISOLVON:
– if you are a patient with a peptic ulcer, – if you are an elderly, debilitated patient and do not have enough strength to express sufficiently with increased secretion of bronchial mucus;
– if you notice any changes in the skin or mucous membranes. If they occur, consult a doctor immediately and discontinue treatment as a precaution. Severe skin reactions such as Stevens-Johnson syndrome (a serious skin disease in which the top layer of skin dies and peels) and Lyell’s syndrome have been reported very rarely.

Always take Bisolvon exactly as your doctor has told you. If you are not sure, talk to your doctor or pharmacist.
