Expectorants for bronchitis

All expectorants for cough with bronchitis

When ORVI, bronchitis with a damp cough with poorly separated sputum, the use of medicines is recommended, which either dilute sputum - mucolytic drugs, or facilitate its separation - expectorants from cough. These include both herbal remedies and synthetic preparations.

Many of us prefer to restrict the intake of medications not obtained from natural substances, however, it should always be remembered that any a medicinal plant, no matter what positive properties it possessed, as well as synthetic agents have side effects, and has a number contraindications.

Since the composition of all medicinal plants is very complex and saturated, in addition to useful and medicinal herbs, a lot of other, sometimes toxic, harmful substances are included in the herbs and preparations. Moreover, in our days, the majority of the population suffers from various types of allergies, and any drug, even the most expensive, effective and safe, can cause an inadequate body reaction.

Classification of funds that facilitate cough and promote rapid recovery

All means for cough relief are subdivided into antitussives, expectorants and mucolytic agents.

  • Antitussives, as well as combination preparations - are indicated for dry, unproductive cough, disturbing sleep and appetite (see. article antitussives with dry cough).
  • Expectorants - are indicated with a productive cough, when the sputum is not thick, not viscous.
  • Mucolytic agents - are shown with a productive cough, but with a thick, hard to separate, viscous sputum.

Any cough medicine must be prescribed only by your doctor. Antitussive remedies can not be used to treat concomitantly with mucolytic drugs, but there are combination drugs that have a weak antitussive and expectorant effect.

Expectorants - means that stimulate expectoration are also divided into:

  • Reflex action - these drugs have an irritating effect on the gastric mucosa, and this in its turn excites the vomiting center, but vomiting does not occur, but the production of mucus in respiratory ways. The peristalsis of the smooth musculature of the bronchi and the activity of the epithelium, which removes phlegm from small to large bronchioles and into the trachea, is also intensified. The result of this irritation is the facilitation of expectoration of mucus and the removal of sputum from the bronchi. In general, these are herbal preparations - thermopsis, Ledum, mother and stepmother, althea, plantain, thyme, etc.
  • Direct resorptive action - after digestion of these cough suppressants in the digestive tract, they cause irritation of the bronchial mucosa, thereby increasing the secretion of liquid sputum.

Mucolytic agents are preparations that dilute sputum:

  • Mukoliticheskie means, affecting the elasticity and viscosity of bronchial mucus (ATSTS, etc.)
  • Mucolytic agents that accelerate the excretion of sputum (bromhexine, ambroxol)
  • Mucolytic drugs that reduce the formation of mucus (Libexin Muko, M-cholinoblockers, glucocorticoids).

How are expectorants used for bronchitis?

Expectorants for bronchitis are an integral part of the complex therapy used to treat this disease. Without these remedies, it is not possible to cure bronchitis. Expectoration means excretion of sputum (mucus), accumulated in the bronchi due to the inflammatory process. During the disease, sputum is produced in the respiratory tract in larger quantities than usual, and is excreted from the body together with a cough.

Bronchitis is an inflammatory disease characterized by damage to the mucous membranes of the bronchi. Cough is the main symptom of the disease. In the acute phase, it is mostly dry, then it becomes wet, with a lot of sputum. In the chronic form of the disease, there is a frequent intense cough with a sputum of yellow or greenish color, sometimes containing pus.Excretion of sputum from the bronchi facilitates a faster clearance of the mucous membranes from the inside, normalizes breathing, reduces the intensity of coughing.In order for the mucus from the bronchi to depart more easily and quickly, expectorants are prescribed.

For what it is necessary to display phlegm and how to do it correctly

In healthy bronchi, mucus is always present in a small amount. Its function is to protect respiratory organs from dust, harmful microorganisms and other unnecessary substances. During the inflammatory process, sputum is produced more intensively several times, in addition, it becomes viscous, thick and practically can not be excreted independently.

Mucus is removed from the respiratory system during coughing. Cough reflexes stimulate its expulsion by the bronchi.

In order for the phlegm to depart more easily, it must be diluted with medicines.

Activating the excretion of mucus can be done by such methods:
  • warm and plentiful drink (contributes to the mucus discharge);
  • humidification of air (insufficient moisture leads to thickening and drying of sputum);
  • Inhalation (stimulate independent cleansing of the bronchi, relieve inflammation);
  • expectorant and mucolytic drugs;
  • Special gymnastics, which helps to eliminate mucus.

Pay attention to excretion of sputum immediately when a damp cough occurs, otherwise mucus may accumulate in a very large amount, there will be impurities of pus, and this will lead to a general intoxication.

Types of expectorants

All expectorants for bronchitis are divided into two types: direct action and reflex. Drugs of direct action dilute sputum and simultaneously affect the bronchi, reducing the inflammatory process. Such products are available in the form of tablets, syrups, soluble powders (Lazolvan, ACC, Bromhexin).

The means of reflex action consist of natural components, capable of causing a cough reflex when ingested. Getting into the stomach and esophagus, they irritate the mucous membrane and the epithelium of the bronchi, which causes a cough and promotes the excretion of mucus. Produced in the form of syrups, extracts and herbal preparations (root of althea, licorice, plantain).

Also there are preparations of combined effect. They possess simultaneously several actions: expectorant, mucolytic, antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory. This remedy is more powerful, as it immediately removes inflammation, depresses the microbial flora, dilutes it and removes phlegm. Such funds are used for the chronic form of the disease. They have side effects, so they can only be taken as prescribed by the doctor.

The most effective drugs

There are a number of drugs that have a stronger therapeutic effect, although they have some contraindications. Such tools are faster and better able to cure sputum:

  1. ATSTS. The drug is based on acetylsalicylic acid, has a strong diluting effect. It is prescribed in the acute period of the disease. Available in the form of a soluble powder. Has many contraindications: liver and kidney pathology, bronchial asthma, stomach ulcer, pregnancy, child age. It can cause such side effects as lowering blood pressure, bronchospasm, bleeding in the lungs, tachycardia, tinnitus and headache.
  2. Bromhexine. Has a strong expectorant and mucolytic effect, effectively reduces the viscosity of phlegm. It is prescribed for chronic disease. Produced in the form of syrup, separately there is a children's syrup. Contraindicated in pregnancy, children under three years of age, with peptic ulcer diseases of the digestive system.
  3. Ambroxol. The drug in the form of syrup, facilitates the separation of mucus and reduces the intensity of cough. It is prescribed for acute and chronic illness. The drug is contraindicated in pregnancy, can cause allergies.
  4. Lazolvan. It is considered the best cure for cough, since it can be used by adults and children in the form of inhalations. Has expectorant and diluting properties. It is available in the form of tablets and a solution for inhalation. Contraindications: pregnancy, lactation, kidney disease.

Vegetable and folk remedies

Funds on a natural basis do not act as fast as synthetic drugs, but they are completely harmless, they can be used during pregnancy and for the treatment of children.

  1. Liquorice root. Syrup has anti-inflammatory and antispasmodic properties.
  2. Gedelix. Vegetable syrup based on ivy extract. Has a strong expectorant effect. For children is issued in the form of syrup, for adults - in drops.
  3. Extract of althea. It stimulates the expectoration, reduces the viscosity of sputum and promotes its excretion. In addition, the plant contains many useful components, can be used for children under two years.
  4. Doctor IOM. A preparation consisting of 11 herbs. Removes edema, reduces cough. It is available in the form of syrup and lozenges for resorption.
  5. Propolis. The best remedy for many diseases. It is considered a natural antibiotic, has a good antimicrobial and expectorant properties. If the spirit tincture is not suitable, you can simply chew a piece of propolis.
  6. Pine buds. To prepare the broth you need a tablespoon of kidneys pour a glass of boiling water and insist 4 hours. It can be taken every two hours.
  7. Onions with honey. Cut a large onion and add two spoons of honey. Infuse for two hours while letting the juice. Take two teaspoons before meals.

The accumulation of mucus leads to a violation of breathing and the spread of bacteria inside the bronchi, which further exacerbates the course of bronchitis. Therefore, excretion of sputum is the main task in the treatment of the disease.

.

Means for children

All parents need to know that preparations for mucus liquefaction for children under the age of two years are not prescribed. This is due to possible side effects. If the child is suffering from a severe cough, it is recommended to use expectorants on a natural basis, which are easy to prepare at home.

Usually very small children take any syrup, even bitter, since they do not yet distinguish between taste. But what to do with older children who do not want to take a tasteless medicine? In this case, you can make a banana balsam, which is good for sputum, has a wrapping effect and is also very tasty. To make it, you need two fruits, two tablespoons of sugar and a glass of water. To cleaned and chopped bananas, you need to add water and sugar, and then bring the mixture to a boil, stirring. Cool to room temperature and take after meals for several days.

Many children gladly drink raspberry tea and warm milk with butter and honey. Both drugs are good for coughing up sputum (recommended before bedtime). Long ago people treated cough with a tincture of honey and black radish. By itself, this vegetable has a rather acute taste, but together with honey it can be given to the child. To prepare the product you will need black radish and honey. In a washed and dry vegetable, you need to make a groove with a sharp knife, and then pour one spoonful of honey. After a while, the juice forms in the cavity. This expectorant is recommended for a damp cough with a lot of sputum. Tincture should be taken 1-2 teaspoons.

From pharmaceutical preparations for children it is better to choose vegetable syrups. They do not contain preservatives, colorants and alcohol. Many of them are very sweet and tasty, in addition, they are all made from medicinal herbs, which not only stimulate expectoration, but also enhance the immunity of the child. Some drugs have a complex effect: they simultaneously contribute to the separation of sputum and relieve inflammation in the glands of the bronchi.

.

Inhalers are considered effective for expectoration of sputum in children. Such procedures make children older. Inhalations are easy to prepare at home. The grass of lime, chamomile, licorice is flooded with water and brought to a boil. Do not breathe over the steam for more than ten minutes. Also in boiling water you can drip a few drops of the pharmacy tincture of eucalyptus. Inhalations with baking soda contribute to liquefaction of sputum, steam from boiled potatoes clears the airways, reduces the intensity of cough. It is important to remember that with any cold and inflammation the body needs a large amount of vitamin C, and its regular use is an excellent preventive maintenance of diseases.
