How It Works

Ambroxol increases mucus clearance by stimulating surfactant production and reducing mucus viscosity; Cetirizine selectively inhibits peripheral H1 receptors, reducing allergic symptoms.

Mechanism Steps

1Ambroxol stimulates type II pneumocytes to increase surfactant production.
2Ambroxol reduces mucus viscosity by breaking down acid mucopolysaccharide fibers.
3Cetirizine selectively blocks peripheral H1 receptors.
4Cetirizine inhibits histamine release from mast cells and basophils.
5Combined effect: improved mucus clearance and reduced allergic symptoms.
