Drug Interactions
Capsule: Concomitant use of Fluimucil capsule with antitussive may cause mucus stasis since they suppress the cough reflex. Therefore, these combinations should be used with caution.
The use of tetracycline HCl should be taken separately with interval of at least 2 hrs.
Concomitant use of Fluimucil capsule with glycerol trinitrate (nitroglycerin) may cause increased vasodilatation effect and blood flow.
Granules: 600 mg: Study of drug interaction is only performed in adult patients.
Antitussive drugs and acetylcysteine should not be concomitantly administered as the reduction of cough reflex may lead to mucus accumulation. Activated-charcoal may reduce the effect of acetylcysteine. The interaction between antibiotic and acetylcysteine may occur, so it is advisable to take at least 2 hourly interval between oral antibiotics and acetylcysteine consumption. Concomitant use of nitroglycerin and acetylcysteine may cause headache. If concomitant administration of nitroglycerin and acetylcysteine is deemed necessary, patient should be monitored.
Concomitant use of acetylcysteine and carbamazepine may reduce the effectiveness of carbamazepine.
Solution for inhalation: Fluimucil may be administered concurrently with common bronchodilators, vasoconstrictors, etc. When local treatment with NAC and antibiotic is necessary, it is advisable to administer the 2 drugs separately since incompatibility between NAC and certain antibiotic may exist.
