• The injection must be diluted before it is administered intravenously. This helps prevent complications like phlebitis.

Mucinac Injection is administered intravenously.

Mucinac Injection contains acetylcysteine (200 mg), which acts on your body in the following manner:

• Replenishes Glutathione: Acetylcysteine works by increasing the levels of glutathione in your body. Glutathione is an antioxidant that helps neutralise toxic substances produced when paracetamol is metabolised.

• Detoxifies Metabolites: When there is an overdose of paracetamol, normal metabolic pathways get saturated leading to a production of harmful intermediate metabolites. Acetylcysteine aids in detoxifying these metabolites thus lessening the extent of potential liver injury.

• Store Mucinac Injection in a cool, dry place.

• Avoid exposure to direct sunlight and keep it well-sealed.

• Protect it from extreme temperatures and damp conditions.

• Keep this medicine out of reach of children at all times.

• If you've overdosed on paracetamol, immediately stop alcohol consumption as it may increase liver damage.

• Maintain a balanced diet rich in antioxidants like vitamin C, E, beta-carotene, and selenium to support liver health and function. These can be found in fruits, vegetables, nuts, and seeds. Always consult your doctor for personalised advice.
