1. What is Mucibrón and what is it used for

Mucibrón belongs to the group of medications called mucolytics.

Ambroxol, the active ingredient of this medication, acts by decreasing the viscosity of mucus, making it more fluid and facilitating its elimination.

It reduces the viscosity of mucus and phlegm, making it easier to expel, in colds and flu for adults and children over 2 years old.

You should consult a doctor if symptoms worsen or do not improve after 5 days of treatment.

Warnings and precautions

Consult your doctor or pharmacist before starting to take Mucibrón.

There have been reports of severe skin reactions associated with the administration of ambroxol. If a skin rash appears (including mucosal lesions, for example, in the mouth, throat, nose, eyes, and genitals), stop using Mucibrón and consult your doctor immediately. If you have problems with bronchial function, you should avoid taking mucolytics.

If you have liver or kidney problems, or a history of stomach or duodenal ulcers, consult your doctor before using this medication, as you may need to reduce the dose.

Mucibrón interaction with other medications:

Tell your doctor or pharmacist that you are taking, have recently taken, or may need to take any other medication.

Taking this medication with cough suppressants (antitussives) may cause accumulation of pulmonary secretions due to decreased cough reflex.

Administration of this medication with antibiotics (amoxicillin, cefuroxime, erythromycin, doxycycline) increases the concentration of the antibiotic in lung tissue.

Mucibrón interaction with food and beverages

It should not be taken with meals and should be taken with a glass of water. Drinking more liquids can increase the activity of this medication.

Pregnancy, breastfeeding, and fertility

If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, or think you may be pregnant or plan to become pregnant, consult your doctor or pharmacist before using this medication.

Sorbitol can cause gastrointestinal upset and a mild laxative effect.
