AMBROLEX 30MG/60ML SYRUP (BOTTLE)

Administration : Should be taken with food: Take immediately after meals. SR cap: Swallow whole, do not chew/crush. Contraindications :Hypersensitivity to ambroxol or any of the excipients of Ambrolex. Special Precautions : General Warning: Physician should be consulted if cough persists for =14 days. Renal Impairment: In renal insufficiency, physician should be consulted before taking ambroxol hydrochloride. In severe renal impairment, accumulation of metabolites formed in the liver must be expected and consequently, the maintenance dose must be reduced or the dosing interval extended. Secretion Impairment: In patients with symptoms of chronic impairment of secretion production or clearance, ambroxol should be used only when prescribed by a physician. Peptic Ulcer: The use of ambroxol should be carefully considered in patients predisposed to peptic ulcers. Ciliary Dyskinesia: In patients with ciliary dyskinesia, the benefit of liquefaction of secretions should be carefully weighed against the risk of congestion of secretions. Antitussives: Concomitant administration of antitussives should be avoided due to the risk of congestion of secretions (see Interactions). Skin Damage: Very rare cases of severe skin damage eg, Stevens-Johnson syndrome and Lyell’s syndrome (toxic epidermal necrolysis) have been reported in a temporal relationship with the administration of mucolytic substances including ambroxol. In most cases, they could be explained by the severity of the underlying disease or concomitant administration of another medicine. In the early stage of such severe skin reactions, only non-specific flu-like symptoms may arise, eg, fever, pain in the limbs, cold, coughing and sore throat. (See Adverse Reactions.)
