How Erythromycin + Bromhexine works
Erythromycin + Bromhexine is a combination of two medicines: Erythromycin and Bromhexine which treat respiratory tract infection associated with excessive mucus (phlegm). Erythromycin is a macrolide antibiotic. It stops bacterial growth by inhibiting synthesis of essential proteins which are required by bacteria to carry out vital functions.
