1. What is PULNOZIN Blackcurrant Flavor and what is it used for
The active substance of PULNOZIN Blackcurrant Flavor is carbocisteine. This substance belongs to a group of medicines called "mucolytics", and its action is to reduce the viscosity of mucus (phlegm). This makes it easier to remove mucus from the airways during coughing (so-called mucolytic action). PULNOZIN Blackcurrant Flavor is used for symptomatic treatment of respiratory system diseases characterized by excessive production of thick and viscous mucus.
2. Important information before taking PULNOZIN Blackcurrant Flavor
When not to take PULNOZIN Blackcurrant Flavor:
- if you are allergic to the active substance - carbocisteine or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6);
- if you have active stomach or duodenal ulcer.
Warnings and precautions
Before taking PULNOZIN Blackcurrant Flavor, discuss it with your doctor or pharmacist. Be particularly careful when taking PULNOZIN Blackcurrant Flavor:
- in patients with bronchial asthma with a history of bronchospasm;
- in patients with severe respiratory failure;
- in weakened patients. By reducing the cough reflex, there is a risk of airway obstruction due to increased secretions.
Taking PULNOZIN Blackcurrant Flavor causes a reduction in viscosity and removal of mucus, through ciliary activity of the mucosa or through a cough reflex. Therefore, you should expect increased coughing and sputum production. Concurrent use of PULNOZIN Blackcurrant Flavor with antitussive drugs is not recommended.
