Managing the Side Effects:

Most side effects are mild and temporary. However, if symptoms persist or worsen, consult your doctor. Here are some suggestions for managing common side effects:

Nausea: Take Mahazin-Am Tablet with food to reduce the occurrence of nausea.
Dizziness: If dizziness occurs, consider taking this medicine close to bedtime.

Mahazin-Am Tablet contains three active ingredients:

Ambroxol (75 mg): It is a mucolytic agent that reduces mucus viscosity and stickiness in the respiratory tract, facilitating easier expectoration. This action makes the mucus thinner, helping clear congestion in the airways.
Levocetirizine (5 mg): It is an antihistamine that inhibits the release of histamine and inflammatory mediators, effectively relieving allergic symptoms like sneezing, itching, runny nose, and watery eyes.
Montelukast (10 mg): It is a leukotriene receptor antagonist that targets inflammatory leukotrienes released in response to allergens. By blocking these leukotrienes, it reduces airway inflammation, alleviating nasal congestion and breathing difficulties associated with allergic rhiniti.
