Bromhexine is a mucolytic which thins and loosens mucus (phlegm), making it easier to cough out.

Menthol is an organic compound which produces a sensation of coolness and relieves minor throat irritation. Salbutamol is a bronchodilator which relax the muscles in the airways and widen the airways.Together, they make breathing easier.
