Solvin OD – Strip of 10 Tablets

Solvin OD – Strip of 10 Tablets is a medication commonly used to relieve symptoms associated with respiratory conditions such as cough, congestion, and cold. It is an extended-release formulation that provides long-lasting relief from these symptoms.

Composition:

Each Solvin OD tablet typically contains the following active ingredients:

1. Ambroxol Hydrochloride (75 mg): Ambroxol is a mucolytic agent that helps break down and thin mucus in the airways, making it easier to clear the mucus and reducing chest congestion. It also has expectorant properties, promoting the removal of mucus from the lungs.
2. Guaifenesin (200 mg): Guaifenesin is an expectorant that helps loosen mucus in the airways, making it easier to cough up and expel. It helps relieve chest congestion and reduces coughing caused by respiratory conditions.

Uses:

Solvin OD Tablets are primarily used to treat:

• Cough and cold symptoms: Relief from productive cough and chest congestion caused by colds, flu, or other respiratory infections.
• Chronic respiratory conditions: Such as chronic bronchitis, asthma, or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), where excess mucus production is a common problem.
• Mucus clearance: Helping to clear mucus from the airways, reducing coughing and discomfort.

Dosage:

The typical dosage for Solvin OD Tablets is:

• Adults: 1 tablet (75 mg of Ambroxol + 200 mg of Guaifenesin) once daily, preferably after food, as directed by a healthcare provider.

As this is an extended-release formulation, it is designed to be taken once a day, providing prolonged relief from respiratory symptoms.

Side Effects:

Common side effects of Solvin OD Tablets may include:

• Gastrointestinal discomfort: Such as nausea, upset stomach, or diarrhea.
• Dizziness or headache.
• Skin rash or allergic reactions (though rare).
• Mild drowsiness or fatigue, though not as common with this extended-release formulation.

Precautions:

• Pregnancy and breastfeeding: Always consult a healthcare provider before using Solvin OD during pregnancy or breastfeeding, as the safety profile during these conditions has not been fully established.
• Liver or kidney problems: If you have any pre-existing liver or kidney conditions, consult your doctor before using this medication. The dose may need adjustment, and the medication should be used with caution.
• Avoid alcohol: Alcohol may increase the sedative effects or side effects of the medication.
• Overuse: Do not take more than the recommended dose, as excessive use may lead to side effects such as nausea or dizziness.
