1、 Western medicine for resolving phlegm
The development history of its drugs can be traced back to the early 20th century. Here are some important milestone events: 1 In the 1920s, the first synthesized expectorant drug was ammonium bromide hydrochloride, which was used to treat respiratory diseases with excessive phlegm. In the 1950s, a class of drugs called Mucolytics, such as acetylcysteine, was discovered for the treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and other conditions. In the 1960s, a expectorant drug called Bromhexine was introduced to treat respiratory diseases with excessive phlegm. In the 1980s, a expectorant drug called Carbocisteine was developed, which has mucus dissolving and antioxidant effects, and is used to treat chronic bronchitis and other diseases. In the 1990s, a expectorant drug called Ambroxol hydrochloride was introduced, which has mucolytic and anti-inflammatory effects and is used to treat respiratory diseases with excessive phlegm.

In the current Chinese Materia Medica, phlegm is classified into "clearing cold phlegm" and "clearing hot phlegm" based on its different cold and hot properties.
