Warnings and Precautions

Talk to your doctor about taking Ambrosol Teva, especially if:

if you suffer from gastric or duodenal ulcers (the preparation has an adverse effect on the gastric mucosa),

if you have liver or kidney problems,

when the patient has a weakened cough reflex or impaired ciliary clearance of the bronchi due to the possibility of secretions remaining in the respiratory tract.

Liquefaction of a large amount of secretion in immobilized and seriously ill patients as well as in young children must be combined with suction (in this case, preparations that inhibit the cough reflex should not be administered, as this may result in the accumulation of secretion in the respiratory tract).

Bronchial mucus should always be carefully cough up.

In patients with bronchial asthma, ambroxol may initially increase the cough.

The preparation contains:

methyl parahydroxybenzoate and propyl parahydroxybenzoate, which may cause allergic relationships (possible late-type reactions),

2.25 g of sorbitol in 5 ml (sorbitol is a source of fructose).
