Drug introduction

Ambroxol is a drug used to treat respiratory conditions. It is a mucolytic agent that helps reduce the viscosity of sputum and promotes the discharge of sputum. Ambroxol is used to treat respiratory infections such as coughs and bronchitis. Usually taken as an oral liquid or capsule, use the dosage as recommended by your doctor. In Hong Kong, Ambroxol is a common prescription drug that can be purchased at pharmacies or with a doctor's prescription. Follow your doctor's advice when using and avoid exceeding the recommended dosage. Possible side effects include headache, gastrointestinal upset, or rash. If you have any adverse reactions, you should seek help from your doctor immediately. While using Ambroxol, you should avoid drinking alcohol and ensure adequate fluid intake. If you have any questions, please ask your doctor.

Dosage

HOW TO USE: AMBROXOL is a drug used to treat respiratory conditions, usually taken as an oral liquid or capsule. It is recommended to take it after meals to reduce stomach discomfort. While taking it, avoid stimulating foods or drinks, such as spicy foods or caffeinated drinks. At the same time, activities that require a high degree of alertness should be avoided to avoid dangers caused by the effects of drugs.

Dosage Guidelines: For adults, the recommended starting dose is 15 mg to 30 mg once daily, depending on the severity of the condition. Your doctor may adjust the dose if necessary. For children, dosage is based on age and weight. Usually, the dose for children is lower than that for adults and should be used under the guidance of a doctor. In any case, patients should use the medication strictly as recommended by their doctor or pharmacist and avoid adjusting the dosage on their own.

Long-term and large-scale use of AMBROXOL may cause damage to liver function, so you should use it as directed by your doctor and do not increase or decrease the dose on your own. If serious side effects or discomfort occur, stop the medication immediately and consult a doctor. AMBROXOL is not suitable for everyone.
