Medicinal Benefits

Broncocet-Forte NF Tablet is used to treat and prevent respiratory disorders like asthma. Broncocet-Forte NF Tablet is a combination of Bambuterol and Montelukast. Bambuterol is a bronchodilator and effectively treats asthma. It works by relaxing muscles and widening the airways of the lungs. Bambuterol also has mucoregulating/mucolytic (dissolves thick mucus and helps relieve breathing difficulties) and anti-inflammatory properties. Montelukast is a leukotriene receptor antagonist. Montelukast blocks leukotrienes (chemicals released in response when a body comes in contact with an allergen) and reduces inflammation and swelling in the nose. It also inhibits bronchoconstriction (narrowing of airways in the lungs that lead to breathing difficulties) and is used to treat asthma and allergic rhinitis. Montelukast is also used to relieve exercise-induced bronchospasm (shortness of breath that occurs only during exercise).
