Same salt, different brand — what does that mean?

A substitute contains the same active ingredient (salt), in the same strength, as Albunil Tablet. The brand name, manufacturer, inactive ingredients and price can differ, and so can release form, so a substitute is not automatically interchangeable.

All medicines sold in India, branded or generic, must meet the quality standards set by the national drug regulator (CDSCO). A lower price does not mean lower quality.

Please confirm with your doctor or pharmacist before switching brands — they will check that the strength and form match your prescription.

Uses of Albunil Tablet

Albunil Tablet is used in the treatment of diabetic kidney disease. It helps in preventing the deterioration of microalbuminuria (excretion of proteins in urine) in diabetic kidney disease.

Benefits of Albunil Tablet

In Cough
Albunil either loosens the mucus so a chesty cough clears it more easily, or settles the reflex behind a dry, tickly cough, depending on the type you have been given.
In Chest congestion
Albunil thins thick mucus in the chest so it can be coughed up, easing the heaviness and rattling and helping you breathe more freely.
In Common cold symptoms
Albunil relieves the blocked nose, cough and congestion of a cold so you can rest and get on with your day while the infection runs its course.
In Protein supplementation
Albunil adds easily digested protein to the diet, helping to maintain and rebuild muscle when food alone does not provide enough.
In Nutritional support
Albunil provides balanced nutrition when eating is difficult or the body's needs are raised, helping to prevent weight loss and weakness.
In Recovery and convalescence
Albunil supplies the extra protein and energy the body needs to heal after surgery, injury or a long illness, so strength returns sooner.

How Albunil Tablet works

Albunil Tablet is a combination of two antioxidants: Taurine and Acetylcysteine. These antioxidants work by protecting the kidneys from damage by harmful chemical (free radicals).

How to take Albunil Tablet

Take this medicine in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Swallow it as a whole. Do not chew, crush or break it. Albunil Tablet is to be taken with food.

Take it exactly as your doctor prescribed. Do not change the dose or stop early on your own.

Missed dose and overdose

If you miss a dose

Take it as soon as you remember. If your next dose is almost due, skip the one you missed — never take two doses together to catch up.

If you take too much

An overdose of this medicine can cause vomiting, severe drowsiness, a racing heart and, with codeine, dangerously slow breathing. It may cause stomach upset and, with prolonged excess, puts avoidable load on the kidneys. Do not wait for symptoms to appear — go to the nearest emergency department and take the pack or strip with you.

  • Nausea
  • Vomiting
  • Stomach upset
  • Drowsiness
  • Tremor
  • Fast heartbeat
  • Bloating
  • Flatulence
  • Loose motions

Stop the medicine and get help at once for a rash, swelling of the face or lips, wheezing or difficulty breathing. Tell your doctor about any side effect that persists or worries you.

Warnings and precautions

See a doctor if a cough lasts more than a week, or comes with fever, breathlessness, chest pain or blood in the sputum. Do not give cough and cold preparations to young children except on a doctor's advice. Do not combine two cough preparations — they frequently contain the same ingredients, and the doses add up. Preparations containing codeine can cause dependence and must be used only for the period your doctor specifies. Tell your doctor before taking a protein supplement if you have kidney disease — the protein load matters. Drink plenty of water while taking a protein supplement. Check the label for milk or soy if you have an allergy or are lactose intolerant.

Do not take Albunil if

Not for anyone with a known allergy to this medicine or to any ingredient in the pack. Codeine-containing preparations are not for children, or for anyone with breathing difficulty. Not for people with inherited disorders of amino-acid metabolism, or with a known allergy to the protein source.

Interactions with other medicines

Sedating ingredients add to the effect of alcohol and sleeping tablets. Decongestants such as phenylephrine and pseudoephedrine can raise blood pressure — tell your doctor if you are hypertensive. No significant medicine interactions are expected for most protein supplements.

How to store Albunil Tablet

Store below 25°C in a cool, dry place. Protect from light and moisture. Keep out of reach of children.

Quick tips for Albunil Tablet

  • Drink plenty of water.
  • It thins mucus better than any syrup.
  • Steam inhalation helps congestion and costs nothing.
  • Measure the dose with the cup supplied.
  • Mix it as directed on the pack; a thicker mix is not a stronger one.
  • Use it alongside meals, not instead of them, unless your dietitian has said otherwise.

People taking Albunil are often asked to check these from time to time. Your doctor decides which and how often.
