title: The absorption, excretion and metabolic pattern of bromhexine in man after oral and i.v. administration.
abstract: The fate of 14C-labelled bromhexine (Bisolvon¿) in man following intravenous and oral administration was studied by investigation of the blood and plasma levels and the excretion profiles. Slight variations observed between the two administration routes are explained by the somewhat different distribution patterns resulting from the different "first path" after oral application (liver) and intravenous injection (tissues).
