  1. What BRONHOSOLVAN is and what it is used for

  BRONCHOSOLVAN is used in respiratory diseases associated with increased formation and difficulty in the release of bronchial secretions such as acute and chronic bronchitis (bronchitis), bronchiectasis (chronic bronchitis), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (long-term lung disease, coughing, large amounts of sputum and difficulty in breathing), cystic fibrosis (congenital disease accompanied by thick secretion in the lungs and other organs).

  You should seek medical attention if you do not feel better or if you feel worse after 4-5 days.

   

  2. What you need to know before you take BRONHOSOLVAN

  Do not take BRONHOSOLVAN if you are allergic to acetylcysteine or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6).

  Warnings and precautions

  Talk to your doctor or pharmacist before taking BRONHOSOLVAN in case of:

  • skin changes. The occurrence of severe skin reactions such as Stevens-Johnson syndrome and Lyell’s syndrome has very rarely been reported in connection with the use of acetylcysteine (the active substance of BRONHOSOLVAN). If skin and mucosal changes newly occur, medical advice should be sought without delay and use of acetylcysteine be terminated;
  • bronchial asthma;
  • a history of stomach or bowel  ulcers (gastrointestinal ulcers) or currently  have them;
  • a hypersensitivity to histamine. Longer-term therapy should be avoided in these patients, since acetylcysteine influences the histamine metabolism and may lead to symptoms of intolerance (e.g. headache, running nose, itching).
  • an inability to cough up mucous. The use of acetylcysteine, especially at the beginning of treatment, may lead to liquefaction and increased bronchial secretion. If you have difficulty swapping, your doctor should take appropriate measures.

  BRONHOSOLVAN should not be taken in case of hepatic or renal insufficiency to avoid the additional intake of substances containing nitrogen.

  Children and adolescents

  BRONHOSOLVAN 200 mg powder for oral solution in sachetshould not be taken by children under 2 years.

  Other medicines and BRONHOSOLVAN

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

  • cough relievers (anti-cough agents). The use of acetylcysteine in combination with cough relievers can lead to dangerous accumulation of secretion due to reduced cough reflex. Prior to administering such combination therapy, careful diagnosis is required. You should consult your doctor before starting treatment with this combination;
  • antibiotics. To avoid antibiotics being affected by the effect of acetylcysteine, they should be taken separately with an interval of at least two hours;
  • active charcoal. Activated  charcoal may reduce the effect of acetylcysteine;
  • nitroglycerin. Concomitant administration of acetylcysteine with glycerol trinitrate (nitroglycerin) may increase the vasodilating and blood-damaging effects of nitroglycerin.
