Indications
Treatment of respiratory disease in horses where airway obstruction due to bronchospasm and/or accumulation of mucus is a contributing factor, and improved mucociliary clearance is desirable. To be used alone or as adjuvant therapy.
In particular :
i) Acute, sub-acute and chronic infections where the presence of mucus and/or microorganisms may stimulate bronchospasm or cause airway obstruction and thus an increase in airway resistance. For example, bronchitis, bronchiolitis and bronchopneumonia alone, or associated with equine influenza and other viral respiratory diseases.
ii) Acute, sub-acute and chronic respiratory allergies.
iii) Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) in horses.
In cases complicated by the presence of micro-organisms the simultaneous use of antimicrobial agents is indicated.
