2. What you need to know before taking Ambroxol Aldo-Union

Do not take Ambroxol Aldo-Union:

Consider:

There have been reports of severe skin reactions (Stevens-Johnson syndrome and toxic epidermal necrolysis) associated with the administration of ambroxol. Specifically, the initial phase of these diseases could manifest with symptoms similar to those of the flu, such as fever, pain, cold (rhinitis), cough, and sore throat.

If an irritating cough appears during the administration of the nebulized solution, try to inhale and exhale normally during inhalation. If you are particularly sensitive, you can pre-heat the solution to inhale to body temperature.

If you have bronchial asthma, it is advisable to administer a medication (bronchial spasmolytic) before inhalation.

Ambroxol Aldo-Union should not be administered to children under 2 years of age, as mucolytics can cause respiratory tract obstruction (bronchi).
