SPECIAL WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS FOR USE
Before prescribing an antitussive treatment, the causes of the cough
should be investigated to assess
the need for aetiological treatment. If the cough persists after
taking the antitussive treatment at the
usual dose, the dose should not be increased; instead, the clinical
situation should be reviewed.
Antitussives should not be used for prolonged periods.
Due to inhibition of the cough reflex by butamirate, the concomitant
administration of expectorants
must be avoided because this can lead to the stagnation of mucus in
the respiratory tract, increasing
the risk of bronchospasm and respiratory tract infections.
This medicinal product contains sorbitol. Patients with rare
hereditary problems
