Acebrophylline 200 mg (SR) + Montelukast 10 mg tablets are a combination medication used to prevent and treat chronic respiratory conditions like asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), chronic bronchitis, and allergic rhinitis.
Key Details
- Uses: This medicine helps manage symptoms like wheezing, shortness of breath, chest tightness, and coughing by opening the airways and reducing inflammation. It is a maintenance medication and should not be used to treat a sudden, acute asthma attack.
- How it Works: Acebrophylline is a bronchodilator that relaxes airway muscles and thins mucus, making it easier to breathe. Montelukast is a leukotriene receptor antagonist that blocks chemicals (leukotrienes) that cause inflammation and swelling in the airways and nose.
- Dosage & Administration: It should be taken exactly as prescribed by a doctor. The tablet should be swallowed whole with water and not chewed, crushed, or broken. Taking it with food is often advised to avoid stomach discomfort. It is typically a once-daily dose, preferably in the evening.
- Common Side Effects:
- Headache
- Nausea or vomiting
- Upset stomach, abdominal pain, diarrhea, or heartburn
- Sore throat/cough, runny nose, or nasal inflammation
- Rash, itching, or drowsiness
- Serious Side Effects: While rare, potential serious side effects include mood changes (irritability, restlessness, depression, suicidal thoughts), severe allergic reactions, fast or irregular heartbeat, or liver problems (yellowing of skin/eyes). Seek immediate medical attention if these occur.
- Precautions: Inform your doctor about any pre-existing heart, liver, or kidney conditions, high blood pressure, or a history of seizures or mental illness. Avoid alcohol consumption as it may increase drowsiness. Do not stop taking the medicine without consulting your doctor, even if you feel better.
