ERDOSTEINE
Erdosteine thins and loosens mucus to make a chesty cough easier to clear. It is used where thick phlegm is a problem, such as in bronchitis.
What Erdosteine Is Used For
- Chesty cough with thick phlegm
- Bronchitis and conditions with sticky mucus
Common Side Effects
- Nausea
- Stomach upset
- Headache
Precautions
Erdosteine helps clear phlegm rather than suppressing the cough. Tell your doctor if you have, or have had, a stomach ulcer, or if you have liver or kidney problems. See a doctor if a cough lasts more than a couple of weeks or comes with high fever or breathlessness.
