- monitor patient for hypersensitivity reaction or anaphylaxis. If either stop infusion immediately -monitor for CNS irritability and seizures
Contains 2 sulfhydryl groups, which are freed after metabolic transformation in the liver, the liberated sulfhydryl groups break the disulphide bonds which hold the glycoprotein fibers of mucus together. This makes the bronchial secretions more fluid and enhances elimination. Relaxes smooth muscles by stimulating beta 2 receptors, thereby causing broncho dilation and vasodilation.
No gastrointestinal or systemic side effects due to the drug have been observed. With over dosage sweating, vertigo and flushing have been observed.
