Actions | Bronchodilator, expectorant. Clenbuterol is a sympathomimetic amine. It has selectivity for the β2-receptor sites within the body, which include the lungs and the uterus. This selectivity allows intense bronchodilating properties with minimum direct effect on the cardiovascular system. Clenbuterol also has a stabilising effect on mast cells, preventing the release of histamine, serotonin and bradykinin. Broncopulmin Powder therefore has a beneficial effect on mucociliary clearance by increasing the amount of mucus cleared by the mucociliary escalator.Dose rates for the oral and parenteral forms of Broncopulmin are the same. Where infection is present, the use of Broncopulmin plus TMPS Oral Powder may be indicated. |
