1. What is AMBROTUS and what is it used for

Ambrotus contains ambroxol, an active ingredient that works by dissolving mucus and facilitating its
elimination.
AMBROTUS is used in adults and childrenfor the treatment of secretions in acute and chronic
bronchial and pulmonary diseases (i.e., in the presence of cough and in case of difficulty expelling
mucus from the bronchi because it is increased or thickened).

2. What you need to know before using AMBROTUS

Do not use AMBROTUS

• if you are allergic to ambroxol or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6);
• if you suffer from severe liver or kidney problems (severe hepatic and/or renal impairment).

Warnings and precautions
Consult your doctor or pharmacist before using AMBROTUS.
Use this medicine with caution and inform your doctor:

• if you have or have had lesions of the stomach and/or intestines (peptic ulcer).

Cases of severe skin reactions associated with the administration of ambroxol have been reported. If
you develop a skin rash (including lesions of mucous membranes such as mouth, throat, nose, eyes,
genitals), stop using AMBROTUS and consult your doctor immediately.
These reactions may be symptoms of severe skin conditions characterized by
skin peeling and severe toxic skin reaction (Stevens-Johnson syndrome and
Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis).
In addition, in the initial phase of Stevens-Johnson syndrome or Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis
(TEN), you may experience non-specific symptoms similar to those of the flu, such as
fever, chills, runny nose (rhinitis), cough and sore throat. Due to these misleading symptoms, it is
possible that you will start symptomatic treatment again with a therapy for cough and
cold.

Other medicines and AMBROTUS
Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking, have recently taken or might take
any other medicines.
In particular, following the administration of ambroxol, the concentrations of antibiotics
(amoxicillin, cefuroxime, erythromycin) in broncho-pulmonary secretions and in saliva are
increased.

breast milk, ask your doctor or pharmacist for advice before using this medicine.

The recommended dose is:

Adults and children over 5 years of age:2-3 vials per day.

Ambrotus solution for nebulization can be administered using various devices for

inhalation.

dilution must be done in equal parts (same amount of medicine and saline solution).
Do not mix Ambrotus solution for nebulization with other solutions whose resulting mixture has
a pH greater than 6.3 (e.g. using Emser salts), as an increase in pH can cause
clouding of the solution.
Since inhalation itself can cause coughing, breathe normally during inhalation.
It is recommended to warm the solution to body temperature by holding the vial in your hands
before use.
If you suffer from asthma, use your usual bronchodilator (medicine used for the treatment
of asthma) before inhalation.
Consult your doctor if the disorder occurs repeatedly, if you have noticed any recent change
in its characteristics, or if the symptoms worsen or do not improve.

If you use more AMBROTUS than you should
In case of ingestion/accidental intake of an excessive dose of Ambrotus, immediately notify
your doctor or go to the nearest hospital.
