It's a type of medicine. A mucolytic. Used to help clear sputum in respiratory disease associated with a productive cough. I don't know anything about this as I personally don't need this medicine as I don't have a cough at all. I'm sure someone will be able to help you. Take care
I only know I take it for bronchiectasis. It helps thin the mucous and makes it easier to bring it up with physio. I do not think it works for everybody. I do not know about it's use for COPD. Somebody with that condition will answer you. Kaye

thanks Kathiesue having long term problems with mucous when it should have cleared. cheers frank24.
Been taking mucodyne for a while now. Think it helps. Mucous not making me choke so much.
Works for some, not all.
Yes I have been on them for over four years now and never any problems with mucus easy to bring up and clear the chest I like them and could not be without them
I was put on it about 4 months ago...no problems and it does help me clear my chest.
