Warnings

This is medicine. For safety, use it according to the leaflet attached to the package. Do not exceed the maximum dose of the drug. If in doubt, consult your doctor or pharmacist.

Talk to your doctor or pharmacist before taking Envil cough:

• if you have a stomach and/or duodenal ulcer;
• if you have kidney and/or liver problems;
• if the patient has a weakened cough reflex (difficulty in coughing up) or impaired ciliary clearance of the bronchi due to the possibility of secretion retention;
• if you suffer from bronchial asthma, as ambroxol may initially increase coughing and cause excessive mucus production.

Excessive fluid secretion from the respiratory tract may occur at the beginning of treatment. In this case, a cough should be provoked in order to expectorate it. It may be necessary to aspirate secretions, in which case the patient should see a doctor.

Cases of severe skin reactions have been reported with the use of ambroxol hydrochloride. If you develop a rash (including lesions on the mucous membranes, e.g. mouth, throat, nose, eyes, genitals), stop taking Envil cough and contact your doctor immediately.

Pregnancy and breastfeeding

If you are pregnant or breast-feeding, think you may be pregnant or are planning to have a baby, ask your doctor or pharmacist for advice before taking this medicine.

It is not recommended to use this medicine during pregnancy as it may be harmful to the embryo and foetus.

It is not recommended to use this medicine during breast-feeding as it is excreted in breast milk.

Driving

The drug has no effect on the ability to drive and use machines. If you experience a headache, do not drive, operate machinery or engage in other activities that require concentration.

Overdosage

Contact your doctor if you take more than the recommended dose. Symptoms of overdose may occur: nausea, fatigue, excessive secretion of mucus from the bronchi.

Interactions with other drugs

Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking or have recently taken or might take any other medicines. Tell your doctor if you are using:

• antibiotics (medicines used to treat infections, such as amoxicillin, erythromycin, ampicillin, doxycycline and cefuroxime), as ambroxol increases their penetration into the lungs and increases their effect;
• theophylline (a medicine used to treat bronchial asthma), as it increases the effect of ambroxol;
• antitussives (used to treat a dry, tiring cough) as they can suppress the cough reflex and cause mucus to remain in the airways.

• anaphylactic shock (skin rash, itchy hands and feet all over the body, swelling of the face, lips or throat that makes it difficult to breathe, wheezing, shortness of breath, no pulse, severely low blood pressure, sweating, cold extremities, loss of consciousness, cardiac arrest).
