Ovanac Tablet 10's

This medicine is used to loosen and clear thick mucus from the airways, making breathing easier in people with chronic respiratory conditions. The detailed uses of this medicine are as follows:

• Chronic bronchitis: It helps break down and thin thick mucus in the airways, making it easier to cough up and clear.
• Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD): It reduces the stickiness of lung secretions, helping improve airflow and relieve breathing difficulties, particularly during flare-ups.
• Emphysema: It helps thin mucus that collects in the damaged air sacs of the lungs, reducing chest congestion and making mucus easier to expel.
• Bronchiectasis: It helps loosen and clear persistent, thick mucus from widened airways, reducing mucus buildup and supporting better airway clearance.

• Ovanac Tablet helps loosen thick mucus, making it easier to clear your airways and breathe more comfortably. Its benefits include:
• Helps break down thick, sticky mucus, making coughs more productive and allowing mucus to be cleared more easily.
• Reduces chest congestion, helping to improve airflow and relieve breathing discomfort.
• Makes it easier to clear respiratory secretions with less effort, which can reduce the frequency of persistent coughing.
• Supports better breathing comfort, allowing you to carry out daily activities more easily.
• Promotes improved respiratory function and overall comfort when used as prescribed for conditions associated with excessive mucus.

• Ovanac Tablet can be taken with or without food or as advised by your doctor.
• Follow your doctor's instructions on the dosage and timing of this medication.
• Dissolve the tablet in a glass of water, stir well and drink immediately.
• Do not swallow as a whole.

• Increase fluid intake: Drink at least 8 to 10 glasses of water daily. Staying well-hydrated works hand-in-hand with this medication to help thin and loosen airway secretions.
• Use a humidifier: Running a cool-mist humidifier in your home or bedroom adds moisture to the air, which helps keep your respiratory passages moist and aids mucus clearance.
• Avoid respiratory irritants: Stay away from tobacco smoke, dust, pollution, and chemical fumes, as these irritants trigger excess mucus production and inflame your airways.
• Practice controlled coughing: Learn techniques like 'huff coughing' from a physical therapist to help clear secretions effectively without straining your lungs.

• Do not combine with cough suppressants: Avoid taking over-the-counter cough medicines that stop you from coughing, as they can cause thinned mucus to pool in your lungs.
• Watch for a sulfur-like smell: This medication naturally has a slight sulfur (rotten egg) odor when you open the pack; this is completely normal and does not mean the medicine has gone bad.
• Monitor asthma symptoms closely: If you have a history of asthma, monitor your breathing closely, as this medication can occasionally trigger airway spasms. Keep your rescue inhaler nearby.
• Inspect the packaging: Check the tablet blister or bottle seal before use. Do not take the medication if the packaging is torn, punctured, or shows signs of tampering.
• Inform surgeons or dentists: Let your healthcare team know you are taking Ovanac Tablet before any scheduled surgeries or medical procedures.
