Product introduction
Broclear Tablet is used for respiratory conditions where thick mucus and narrowed airways make breathing difficult, such as asthma, COPD, and chronic bronchitis. It brings together a bronchodilator that opens up the airways and a mucolytic that thins stubborn phlegm so it can be coughed out more easily. This dual action makes it useful for people who struggle with both breathlessness and a persistent, mucus-heavy cough. It is typically part of a longer-term management plan rather than a one-off remedy for sudden symptoms.
Storage: Store below 25°C in a dry place, away from direct sunlight and out of reach of children.
