Deflegmin Baby and Other Medicinal Products
Tell your doctor or pharmacist about all the medicinal products you are taking or have recently taken, as well as those you plan to take.
- Ambroxol increases the concentration of antibiotics (amoxicillin, cefuroxime, erythromycin, doxycycline) in lung tissue.
- Cough suppressants (e.g. codeine) suppress the cough reflex and make it difficult to cough up liquefied mucus, so you should not use ambroxol at the same time as cough suppressants.
- No significant interaction between ambroxol and other medicinal products has been found.
