How it Works?

Abnux N Tablet contains two active components:

• Acetylcysteine (600 mg): Acts as a mucolytic agent by breaking down disulphide bonds in mucus glycoproteins, consequently decreasing mucus viscosity. This reduces the stickiness of mucus, making it easier to expectorate. Additionally, acetylcysteine possesses antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.

• Acebrophylline (100 mg): Functions as a bronchodilator by relaxing the muscles in the airways, facilitating easier breathing. It achieves this by the inhibition of phosphodiesterase enzymes, increasing cyclic AMP levels, thus dilating air passages and reducing inflammation. Furthermore, it aids in enhancing mucus clearance.

Interactions

Drug-Drug Interactions

• Xanthine Medications: Acebrophylline, a xanthine derivative, may interact with other xanthine medications, potentially leading to increased side effects such as nausea, vomiting, and dizziness.

• Antibiotics: Acetylcysteine may alter the absorption of certain antibiotics, such as tetracyclines and cephalosporins, impacting their efficacy.

• Antitussives: Concurrent use may cause mucus accumulation, as antitussives suppress coughing while this medicine thins mucus for expulsion.

Drug-Disease Interactions

• Peptic Ulcer Disease: Exercise caution as both acebrophylline and acetylcysteine may exacerbate this condition.

• Seizure Disorder: Use cautiously as acebrophylline may induce seizures in susceptible individuals.

• Cardiac Disorders: Exercise caution if you have heart disease, as acebrophylline could potentially cause cardiac arrhythmias.
