No specific overdose symptoms have been reported in man to date.
Based on accidental overdose and/or medication error reports the observed symptoms are consistent with the known side effects of Muxol Flem NiГ±os at recommended doses and may need symptomatic treatment.
Muxol Flem NiГ±os warnings
With caution used Muxol Flem NiГ±os Lark Laboratories when tachyarrhythmia and other cardiac arrhythmias, arterial hypertension, myocarditis, heart defects, aortic stenosis, diabetes, thyrotoxicosis, glaucoma, acute heart failure (with careful medical supervision).
Increase doses or frequency of receiving albuterol (salbutamol) should be under the supervision of a doctor. Reducing the interval may be only in exceptional cases and should be strictly justified.
In the application of salbutamol there was a risk of hypokalemia, so the period of treatment in patients with severe asthma should monitor the flow levels of potassium in the blood. The risk of hypokalemia increases with hypoxia.
Muxol Flem NiГ±os precautions
Muxol Flem NiГ±os 30-mg tablets contain lactose 684 mg per maximum recommended daily dose (120 mg). Patients with rare hereditary galactose intolerance, the Lapp lactase deficiency or glucose-galactose malabsorption should not take Muxol Flem NiГ±os.

There have been very few reports of severe skin lesions eg, Stevens-Johnson syndrome and toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN) in temporal association with the administration of expectorants eg, Muxol Flem NiГ±os HCl. Mostly these could be explained by the severity of the patient's underlying disease and/or concomitant medication. In addition during the early phase of a Stevens-Johnson syndrome or TEN, a patient may first experience non-specific influenza-like prodromes, it is possible that a symptomatic treatment is started with a cough and cold medication.
Therefore, if new skin or mucosal lesions occur, medical advice should be sought immediately and treatment with Muxol Flem NiГ±os discontinued as a precaution.
In the presence of impaired renal function, Muxol Flem NiГ±os may be used only after consulting a physician.
