Fluimucil Side Effects

Effervescent tab/Powd for oral soln: The following undesirable effects have been observed in the long-term post-marketing experience; their frequency cannot be estimated from the available data: Hypersensitivity reactions, anaphylactic shock, anaphylactic/anaphylactoid reactions; Headache; Tinnitus; Tachycardia; Haemorrhage; Bronchospasm, dyspnea; Vomiting, diarrhoea, stomatitis, abdominal pain, nausea, dyspepsia; Urticaria, rash, angioedema, pruritus; Fever, facial oedema; Blood pressure decreased.
In predisposed patients, hypersensitivity can occur in the form of skin and respiratory organs reactions, and bronchospasm can occur in patients with bronchial asthma and a hyper-reactive bronchial system (see "Precautions").
The occurrence of severe skin reactions such as Stevens-Johnson syndrome and Lyell's syndrome has been very rarely reported in temporal relation to the use of acetylcysteine. In case of new manifestations of cutaneous and mucosal manifestations, a doctor should be consulted immediately, and the use of acetylcysteine should be discontinued. In most of these reported cases, at least one other drug had been used simultaneously and possibly enhanced the observed mucocutaneous effects.
Different studies confirm a decrease in platelet aggregation when using acetylcysteine. The clinical significance of this is still unknown.
The exhaled air may temporarily have an unpleasant odour, probably due to the elimination of hydrogen sulphide from the active substance.
