Thermopsis grass is known for its expectorant effect in respiratory diseases. Thanks to her, a significant increase in mucus production occurs in the bronchi. Thermopsis includes rather complex substances - alkaloids, which contain nitrogen and in combination with oxygen form water-soluble salts, often toxic, but in small quantities they are allowed for use as drugs. Thermopsis is rich in alkaloids such as cytisine, pachycarpin, methylcytisine, tormopsidin, thermopsin, as well as other bioactive substances. They have a complex effect on the human body. In general, thermopsis acts as an expectorant, but a large dose causes an emetic reaction.
After taking the cough tablets with thermopsis, they are absorbed, entering the bloodstream, then into the mucous membrane of the trachea and bronchi, and thereby have an irritating effect, turning into a cough. In addition, thermopsis stimulates the respiratory center in the brain. The action of thermopsis enhances the motor activity of the epithelium, called the ciliated, which lines the bronchi from the inside, as well as the motor activity of the bronchial muscle layer. Thermopsy cough tablets cause increased breathing, resulting in expectoration and removal of sputum. Tablets help to gradually increase cough and increase sputum secretion, and at the same time accelerate the process of removing it from the bronchi.
In their composition, cough tablets with thermopsis have sodium bicarbonate, which stimulates the secretion of bronchial glands and helps to reduce the degree of viscosity of sputum.
