The inhibition of biofilm formation was evaluated by adding ambroxol at the initial time. Ambroxol hydrochloride was evaluated over the preformed biofilm and live/dead bacteria were quantified. The effect of ambroxol in the ethidium bromide efflux assay and the relative expression of the five major <em>P. mirabilis</em> efflux pump family genes were analyzed. Ambroxol inhibited biofilm formation in all the bacteria tested. Moreover, ambroxol significantly reduces both biofilm biomass and viable bacteria. Ambroxol was able to affect <em>P. mirabilis</em> efflux pumps depending on the concentration used and induced the overexpression of several efflux pump genes. In summary, ambroxol kills planktonic cells, reduce biofilm biomass as it increases cell death, and affect the expression of efflux pumps.
