About Brace-N Tablet

Brace-N Tablet belongs to the class of drugs called ‘mucolytic agents’ (cough/sputum thinner) primarily used to prevent and treat symptoms of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) such as shortness of breath, coughing, or wheezing (whistling sound while breathing). COPD is a group of lung diseases with emphysema (shortness of breath) and chronic bronchitis (inflammation of the lining of bronchial tubes).

Brace-N Tablet is a combination of two drugs: Acebrophylline (mucolytic and bronchodilator) and Acetylcysteine (mucolytic agent/sputum thinner). Acebrophylline belongs to the class of bronchodilators with additional mucolytic properties and works by relaxing muscles and widening the airways of the lungs. Acetylcysteine belongs to the class of mucolytic agents (cough/sputum thinner) that works by thinning and loosening phlegm (mucus) in the lungs, windpipe, and nose. Brace-N Tablet breakdown the acid mucopolysaccharide fibers that make the mucus (sputum) thinner and less dense/viscous removing sputum efficiently by coughing. However, the viscosity of sputum remains low for as long as treatment is maintained. Together, they help to cough out easily and make breathing easier by opening airways.

  • Eat foods rich in potassium, such as bananas, asparagus, oranges, potatoes, avocados, dark leafy greens, and beetroots. Potassium is important for lung function, and a potassium deficiency may cause breathing problems.
  • Drink plenty of fluids every day to thin mucus, which makes it easier for coughing out.
  • Maintain a diet that includes complex carbohydrates such as lentils, beans, barley, oats, quinoa, bran, peas and potatoes with skin.
  • Limit or avoid the intake of caffeinated drinks such as tea, coffee, soda, and energy drinks like Red Bull.
  • Eat protein-rich foods such as meat, fish (particularly salmon, sardines and mackerel), eggs and poultry.
