Uses of Cosome-E Syrup 120ml

Cosome-E Syrup 120ml is used to open the airways in asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).

Modified-release tablets are sometimes used for long-term control of wheezing and breathlessness, usually alongside inhalers.

How Cosome-E Syrup 120ml works

Aminophylline is a form of theophylline. It relaxes the smooth muscle around the airways so they widen and air can flow more freely, and it has a mild anti-inflammatory effect. It also stimulates the breathing centre in the brain and helps the diaphragm work more strongly.

Possible side effects

Some people feel side effects from Cosome-E Syrup 120ml, especially if blood levels rise. Common ones include:

• Nausea or vomiting
• Headache
• Fast heartbeat or palpitations
• Restlessness or difficulty sleeping
• Stomach upset

Get medical help at once for persistent vomiting, a very fast or irregular heartbeat, confusion or a fit, as these can mean the level of the medicine in your blood is too high.

Precautions and warnings

• The gap between a helpful and a harmful level is narrow, so your doctor may check blood levels, especially when starting or changing other medicines.
• Smoking lowers its level and stopping smoking can raise it, so tell your doctor if your smoking habits change.
• Many medicines affect it, including ciprofloxacin, erythromycin, clarithromycin, cimetidine and some epilepsy medicines, so tell your doctor about everything you take.
• Tell your doctor if you have heart disease, high blood pressure, liver disease, an overactive thyroid, a stomach ulcer or epilepsy.
• Limit caffeine-containing drinks, and ask your doctor before use in pregnancy or breastfeeding.
