Patients with COPD often show cough and expectoration, and most of the sputum is white and sticky, and the amount of discharge is very large, mainly because of bacterial infection or viral infection, combined infection, etc. This situation is sometimes caused by this yellow thick sputum. Well, the most commonly used drugs are for infection. On the one hand, corresponding antibiotics can be used for treatment. At the same time, antitussive and expectorant drugs can be used, such as ambroxol hydrochloride, or acetylcysteine effervescent tablets. These are used more frequently for sputum, and the effect is relatively good. If sputum is too much, you can also drink more water. It is helpful for diluting sputum or coughing it out easily.
