ACETYLCYSTEINE+PYRIDOXAMINE DIHYDROCHLORIDE is used to treat chronic kidney disease (CKD). Chronic kidney disease is characterised by a progressive loss of kidney function over time. Kidneys remove waste and excess fluid from the blood. Waste can accumulate to dangerously high levels in the blood due to kidney disease, making you sick.
ACETYLCYSTEINE+PYRIDOXAMINE DIHYDROCHLORIDE contains Pyridoxamine dihydrochloride and Acetylcysteine. Acetylcysteine acts as an antioxidant and protects body tissues in people with chronic kidney disease and those on dialysis. Pyridoxamine dihydrochloride acts as a catalyst in the metabolism of fats, carbohydrates, and proteins in the body, thereby assisting in maintaining energy balance in kidney disease patients. As a result, ACETYLCYSTEINE+PYRIDOXAMINE DIHYDROCHLORIDE aids in treating chronic kidney disease.
To treat your condition effectually, continue using ACETYLCYSTEINE+PYRIDOXAMINE DIHYDROCHLORIDE for as long as your doctor has prescribed it. ACETYLCYSTEINE+PYRIDOXAMINE DIHYDROCHLORIDE may cause nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, and abdominal pain in some cases. The majority of these side effects do not necessitate medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. If you are experiencing these side effects regularly, consult your doctor.
Please do not take ACETYLCYSTEINE+PYRIDOXAMINE DIHYDROCHLORIDE if you are allergic to Pyridoxamine dihydrochloride, Acetylcysteine or any of its ingredients. Consult your doctor before using ACETYLCYSTEINE+PYRIDOXAMINE DIHYDROCHLORIDE if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Limited information is available regarding the usage of ACETYLCYSTEINE+PYRIDOXAMINE DIHYDROCHLORIDE in children, so please consult a doctor if you have any concerns. Keep your doctor informed about your health condition and all the medicines you take to rule out any side effects.
Chronic kidney disease (CKD)
ACETYLCYSTEINE+PYRIDOXAMINE DIHYDROCHLORIDE is used to treat chronic kidney disease. ACETYLCYSTEINE+PYRIDOXAMINE DIHYDROCHLORIDE contains Pyridoxamine dihydrochloride (vitamin B6 derivative) and Acetylcysteine (antioxidant), which helps in various ways to prevent kidney damage or injury. Thereby it effectively improves kidney function, reducing complications in patients with chronic kidney disease.
To effectively treat your disease, continue using ACETYLCYSTEINE+PYRIDOXAMINE DIHYDROCHLORIDE for as long as your doctor has prescribed it. If you have had a skin response or irritation to any medicine, do not use ACETYLCYSTEINE+PYRIDOXAMINE DIHYDROCHLORIDE without consulting a doctor. Consult your doctor before using ACETYLCYSTEINE+PYRIDOXAMINE DIHYDROCHLORIDE if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Before taking ACETYLCYSTEINE+PYRIDOXAMINE DIHYDROCHLORIDE, inform your doctor about your medical history and other medications you are currently taking to rule out any potential negative effects. It is unknown whether consuming alcohol with ACETYLCYSTEINE+PYRIDOXAMINE DIHYDROCHLORIDE is safe. However, it is best to avoid or limit alcohol consumption as a precaution.

Chronic kidney disease: Chronic kidney disease, also known as chronic kidney failure, is a long-term kidney condition that results in renal failure. Kidneys remove waste and extra fluid from the blood. Renal disease is characterised by a steady decline of kidney function over time. As a result, waste can accumulate to dangerously high levels in the blood, potentially making you sick. Loss of appetite, nausea, vomiting, sleep problems, swelling of the feet and ankles are the symptoms of renal failure. Treatment focuses mostly on stopping the progression of kidney disease by addressing the underlying cause.
