Description
Bromhexine Hydrochloride Product Overview
Bromhexine hydrochloride (C14H20Br2N2·HCl) is a white or almost white crystalline powder that is very slightly soluble in water. It is derived from vasicine, an alkaloid of the Adhatoda vasica plant. In the body, it is converted to Ambroxol hydrochloride, which is also used as an API in its own right.
Pharmaceutical companies use bromhexine in tablets, syrups, oral solutions and injections in the mucolytic class. Veterinary producers use it in water-soluble powders and injections for poultry, pigs and cattle with respiratory conditions. Another mucolytic API in our range is Carbocysteine.
Zyntex supplies bromhexine hydrochloride from qualified API producers, only to licensed pharmaceutical and veterinary companies.
