For the relief of chronic bronchitis and inflammation of the bronchial tree

Bronchitis refers to a severe inflammation of the bronchial tubes, with symptoms ranging from chills, fever, and

coughing, to difficulty breathing and pain in the chest. Acute bronchitis is a mild, short attack, sometimes

accompanied by a secondary bacterial infection, while chronic bronchitis is characterized by constant

inflammation, often accompanied by irritation of the bronchi, but without any infectious component.

Bronchitis can be caused by infection, exposure to cold, or noxious agents. It is seen much more commonly in

the winter as it usually follows some form of upper respiratory infection, such as a cold. Smokers or those

exposed to excessive secondhand smoke may also be more vulnerable to chronic bronchitis.
