Abstract
The paper gives information on current mucoactive therapy with carbocysteine for acute and chronic bronchopulmonary diseases. The author’s observations during a multicenter study and the data available in the literature provide evidence that carbocysteine lysine salt (Fluifort) shows high clinical and immunological efficacies as a mucoregulatory and mucolytic agent used in children aged 2 to 17 years with acute and chronic bronchopulmonary diseases. The highest efficacy of carbocysteine lysine salt has been found in schoolchildren, which is attributable to the age-related features of the formation of the bronchial secretory apparatus and local immune system, as well as in the children with protracted and chronic inflammatory processes, including those associated with smoking.
