Chronic bronchitis is a type of COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease) defined as a productive cough of more than three months occurring within two years.
ERdozet 300mg Capsule contains Erdosteine, a mucolytic agent (cough/sputum thinner). It works by modulating the sputum viscosity in the respiratory tract, making it more fluid and less thick, increasing the mucociliary rate and allowing mucus removal from the respiratory tract.
