Broncho-Vaxom Adult Capsules

Broncho-Vaxom Adult Capsules

Description:

Broncho-Vaxom Adult Capsules are an oral immunostimulant medicine designed to help strengthen the body’s natural defense mechanisms against respiratory tract infections. Each capsule contains 7 mg of lyophilized bacterial lysates from common respiratory pathogens, helping to modulate and stimulate the immune system of the airways. Broncho-Vaxom is used in adults to prevent recurrent respiratory infections and to support the treatment of acute airway infections, including acute exacerbations of chronic bronchitis. It is typically used as a preventive health measure and as a comedication alongside standard antibiotic therapy when indicated.

Indications:

• Prevention of recurrent infections of the respiratory airways (upper and lower respiratory tract), such as recurrent bronchitis and other bacterial respiratory infections.
• Prevention of acute infectious exacerbations of chronic bronchitis in adults.
• Comedication in the treatment of acute airway infections to support the immune response and help reduce frequency and severity of episodes.
• Reduction in the number and intensity of recurrent respiratory infections in patients prone to frequent colds, cough, and bronchial infections.

Active Ingredients / Key Components:

• Lyophilized bacterial lysates (total) – 7 mg per capsule.
• Bacterial strains included in the lysate:
  – Haemophilus influenzae
  – Diplococcus pneumoniae (Streptococcus pneumoniae)
  – Klebsiella pneumoniae
