Side effects and overdose

Adverse negative reactions of the body while taking breast milk may manifest as allergic skin reactions. They may be accompanied by itching and redness. Sometimes angioedema can occur, and very rarely anaphylactic shock.

On the part of the gastrointestinal tract, in case of individual intolerance to any components in the composition of the herbal remedy, dyspepsia may be observed. These are, in particular, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, disruptions in the digestive process, increased gas formation, and abdominal pain.

Additionally, headache, severe weakness and drowsiness may occur. Against the background of a general deterioration in the body’s condition, apathy develops and a syndrome of causeless internal anxiety occurs, which causes general discomfort and worsens the quality of life.

If any negative reactions of the body occur, you should stop taking the herbal mixture and consult with your doctor in order to change the treatment regimen. An overdose of the finished infusion has not been recorded in practice. But theoretically, when taking a large amount of the finished product, one can expect an increase in the listed negative reactions of the body.

Pharmacodynamics

The expectorant effect of the breast elixir is due to the action of its constituent components:

— thick licorice extract has anti-inflammatory and expectorant properties, which are associated with the content of glycyrrhizin, which stimulates the activity of the ciliated epithelium in the trachea and bronchi, and also enhances the secretory function of the mucous membranes of the upper respiratory tract;

— anise oil has an expectorant effect due to the content of anethole in the oil, which promotes reflex stimulation of breathing, increased activity of the ciliated epithelium of the respiratory tract and increased secretion by the mucous membrane of the larynx, trachea and bronchi;

- ammonia has an irritating effect, which leads to excitation of the endings of sensory nerves in the upper respiratory tract and reflex stimulation of the respiratory center.
