Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between Bisolvon Chesty and Bisolvon Dry?

Bisolvon Chesty Forte contains bromhexine, which is a mucolytic — it breaks down mucus to make a productive (wet/chesty) cough easier. Bisolvon Dry contains dextromethorphan, a cough suppressant for dry, irritating coughs with no mucus. Using the wrong type can make your symptoms worse — choose Chesty for productive coughs, Dry for non-productive coughs.

How does bromhexine work?

Bromhexine depolymerises the mucopolysaccharide fibres in mucus, breaking down the gel-like network that makes it thick and sticky. The result is thinner, more fluid mucus that is easier to move up the airways and cough out through the mucociliary system.

How quickly does Bisolvon Chesty Forte work?

Bromhexine typically takes 2–3 days of regular dosing to show its maximum mucolytic effect as it builds up in the mucus-producing cells of the airways. Some relief may be noticed within the first day.

Can Bisolvon Chesty Forte be used alongside other cold and flu medications?

Bisolvon can generally be combined with paracetamol or ibuprofen for pain and fever. Do not combine with cough suppressants (dextromethorphan, pholcodine) as suppressing the cough reflex prevents you from clearing the mucus Bisolvon is loosening.

Is Bisolvon Chesty Forte suitable for children?

Bisolvon Chesty Forte (8mg) is for adults and children 12 years and over. Bisolvon offers a children's lower-dose formulation for younger children — consult your pharmacist for appropriate age-specific products.
