What is MucoClear?

MucoClear is a saline solution designed to loosen excess mucus in your sinuses or lungs, making it easier for you to cough it up and breathe easier. This sterile solution contains zero preservatives or additives and is suitable for all nebuliser devices.

How to use MucoClear

Always take this product exactly as described in the patient information leaflet or as your doctor / pharmacist has told you.  MucoClear is most frequently used in cases of bronchitis and cystic fibrosis. Depending on your needs, you can inhale a sterile vial of four millilitres, two to four times a day for MucoClear 3% or twice a day for MucoClear 6%, using a nebuliser device.

How does saline relieve congestion?

Saline is a mixture of sodium chloride (salt) and water, commonly used in products like nasal sprays to relieve congestion. The saline is thought to work by reducing and loosening up the thick mucus in the sinuses and nose, helping to wash away germs and allergens.

Are there any side effects?

Temporary irritation, such as coughing, hoarseness, or reversible bronchoconstriction may occur. An inhaled bronchodilator can be used before treatment with hypertonic sodium chloride to reduce the risk of these adverse effects. If you experience any side effects, including any not included in the patient information leaflet, you can report them using the MHRA Yellow Card Scheme.
