Actions and SpectrumÂ
myrtol has mucolytic properties thus it helps to thin and loosen mucus in the airways. This makes it easier for individuals to clear mucus from their respiratory passages. myrtol acts as an expectorant and it can stimulate the production of respiratory secretions and promote their expulsion from the lungs.

Pregnancy Categories:        Â
Category A: well-controlled and Satisfactory studies show no risk to the fetus in the first or later trimester.Â
Category B: there was no evidence of risk to the fetus in animal studies, and there were not enough studies on pregnant women. Â
Category C: there was evidence of risk of adverse effects in animal reproduction studies, and no adequate evidence in human studies must take care of potential risks in pregnant women.Â
Category D: adequate data with sufficient evidence of human fetal risk from various platforms, but despite the potential risk, and used only in emergency cases for potential benefits.Â
Category X: Drugs listed in this category outweigh the risks over benefits. Hence these categories of drugs need to be avoided by pregnant women.Â
Category N: There is no data available for the drug under this category.Â
Pharmacology Â
myrtol’s mucolytic action involves its ability to reduce the viscosity of mucus in the respiratory tract. Â
This results from the oils’ ability to break down the molecular structure of mucus, making it less sticky and easier to clear from the airways.Â
PharmacodynamicsÂ
myrtol’s expectorant action involves its ability to stimulate the production and secretion of respiratory fluids, including mucus. Â
By increasing the volume of respiratory secretions, it promotes the clearance of mucus from the airways. Â
Pharmacokinetics Â
