1. What is Erdomed and what is it used for.

Erdomed contains the active substance erdosteine, which belongs to a group of mucolytic agents - reducing the viscosity of bronchial secretions and facilitating expectoration. Erdomed is recommended for the treatment of secretolytic therapy in acute and chronic upper respiratory tract diseases, bronchi, and lungs with accompanying abnormal secretion and transport of mucus. It is also used for preventive treatment of seasonal exacerbations of chronic bronchitis.

2. Important information before taking Erdomed

When not to take Erdomed:

  • in children under 12 years of age.

Warnings and precautions

In case of typical symptoms of hypersensitivity (rash, urticaria), treatment should be stopped immediately. Use with caution in patients with weakened cough reflex or disorders of ciliary clearance (due to the risk of accumulation of large amounts of mucus). The risk of side effects can be reduced by using the smallest effective doses for the shortest possible period. If there is no improvement, the doctor will consider stopping treatment. No dose adjustment is required in adults with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).

Children

The medicine should not be given to children under 12 years of age.

Taking Erdomed with food and drink

Food and drink do not affect the absorption of the medicine.

Taking Erdomed in patients with kidney function disorders

In patients with severe kidney failure, erdosteine metabolites produced in the liver may accumulate.

Taking Erdomed in elderly patients

No dose adjustment is necessary in patients over 65 years of age.

Other medicines and Erdomed

No interactions have been observed with other medicines used to treat respiratory infections and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, such as theophylline, smooth muscle relaxants (corticosteroids), erythromycin, amoxicillin, or cotrimoxazole. After administration of erdosteine, an increase in amoxicillin concentration in the respiratory tract has been observed. Combined treatment with cough suppressants (antitussives) may cause accumulation of large amounts of bronchial secretions, which can worsen the patient's condition. To avoid complications, do not routinely combine cough suppressants and secretolytic agents (increasing secretion), especially before bedtime.

Pregnancy, breastfeeding, and fertility

Before taking the medicine, consult a doctor. The decision to use the medicine is made by the doctor.

Driving and using machines

Erdomed does not affect the ability to drive and use machines.

Erdomed contains the following excipients:

povidone, microcrystalline cellulose, magnesium stearate, gelatin, titanium dioxide (E171), yellow iron oxide (E172), indigotine (E132).

Taking a higher dose of Erdomed than recommended.

No cases of overdose have been reported. If you have taken more than the recommended dose, consult a doctor immediately.

Missing a dose of Erdomed:

Take the prescribed dose as soon as possible and then continue with the previous dosing schedule. If it is time for the next dose, take only one dose and then continue with the recommended dosing schedule. Do not take a double dose to make up for the missed dose. If you have any further questions about taking this medicine, consult a doctor or pharmacist.
