Coldact® Flu Plus
Paracetamol
Enhances the effects of MAO inhibitors, sedatives, ethanol.
The risk of hepatotoxic action of paracetamol increases with simultaneous use of barbiturates and phenytoin. phenobarbital, carbamazepine. rifampicin. isoniazid, zidovudine and other inducers of microsomal liver enzymes.
The anticoagulant properties of warfarin and other coumarins may be enhanced by long-term regular use of paracetamol, increasing the risk of bleeding. A single dose of paracetamol does not have this effect.
Metoclopramide increases the rate of absorption of paracetamol and increases the level of paracetamol concentration in the blood plasma to the maximum.
Likewise, domperidone may increase the rate of absorption of paracetamol.
When chloramphenicol and paracetamol are used together, the half-life of chloramphenicol may increase.
Paracetamol may reduce the bioavailability of lamotrigine. with a possible decrease in its effect due to the induction of its hepatic metabolism.
The absorption of paracetamol may be reduced when taken concomitantly with cholestyramine, but this can be avoided if cholestyramine is taken one hour after paracetamol.
Regular use of paracetamol concomitantly with zidovudine may cause neutropenia and increase the risk of liver damage.
Probenecid affects the metabolism of paracetamol. In patients taking probenecid concomitantly, the dose of paracetamol should be reduced.
The hepatotoxicity of paracetamol may be increased by chronic or excessive alcohol consumption.
Paracetamol may interfere with the results of the uric acid test using the phosphotungstate precipitating reagent.
Phenylephrine
Contraindicated in patients who are taking or have taken MAOIs within the past two weeks. Phenylephrine can enhance the effect of MAO inhibitors and cause a hypertensive crisis.
Concomitant use of phenylephrine with other sympathomimetic drugs or tricyclic antidepressants (eg, amitriptyline) may increase the risk of cardiovascular side effects.
Phenylephrine may reduce the effectiveness of beta-blockers and other antihypertensive drugs (eg, debrisoquine, guanethidine, reserpine, methyldopa); the risk of increased blood pressure and other cardiovascular side effects may be increased.
Concomitant use of phenylephrine with digoxin and other cardiac glycosides may increase the risk of arrhythmia or myocardial infarction.
Concomitant use of phenylephrine with ergot alkaloids (ergotamine and methysergide) may increase the risk of ergotism.
Chlorphenamine
Antihistamines, such as chlorphenamine, may enhance the effects of opioid analgesics, anticonvulsants, antidepressants (tricyclics and monoamine oxidase inhibitors), other antihistamines, antiemetics and antipsychotics, anxiolytics, hypnotics, ethanol (alcohol) and other central nervous system depressants.
Because chlorphenamine has some anticholinergic activity, the effects of anticholinergic drugs (eg, some psychotropic drugs, atropine, and urinary incontinence drugs) may be increased by this drug. This can lead to tachycardia and dryness of the oral mucosa. disorders of the gastrointestinal tract (for example, colic), urinary retention and headache.
The metabolism of phenytoin may be inhibited by chlorphenamine, and phenytoin toxicity may develop.

Active substance
Paracetamol + Chlorpheniramine + Phenylephrine
pharmachologic effect
Combined drug with prolonged action. Chlorphenamine has an antiallergic effect, eliminates lacrimation, itching in the eyes and nose. Paracetamol has an antipyretic and analgesic effect: reduces the pain syndrome observed during colds - sore throat, headache, muscle and joint pain, reduces high temperature. Phenylephrine has a vasoconstrictor effect - reduces swelling and hyperemia of the mucous membranes of the upper respiratory tract and paranasal sinuses .
Indications for use
- symptomatic treatment of colds, flu, acute respiratory viral infections (fever, pain, rhinorrhea).
Mode of application
Adults and children over 12 years old - 1 capsule every 12 hours for 3-5 days. Duration of use as an antipyretic - no more than 3 days; as a pain reliever - no more than 5 days. Coldact Flu Plus capsules are not recommended for use during pregnancy and lactation. Contraindicated in children under 12 years of age.
Interaction
The risk of developing hematotoxic effects of paracetamol increases with simultaneous use of barbiturates, diphenine, carbamazepine, rifampicin, zidovudine and other inducers of microsomal liver enzymes. Enhances the effects of sedative drugs, ethanol, MAO inhibitors. Antidepressants, phenothiazine derivatives, antiparkinsonian and antipsychotic drugs increase the risk of developing urinary retention, dry mouth, and constipation. GCS increase the risk of developing glaucoma. Paracetamol reduces the effectiveness of uricosuric drugs. Chlorphenamine combined with furazolidone can lead to hypertensive crisis, agitation, and hyperrexia. Tricyclic antidepressants enhance the adrenomimetic effect of phenylephrine; simultaneous administration of halothane increases the risk of developing ventricular arrhythmia. Reduces the hypotensive effect of guanethidine, which in turn enhances the alpha-adrenergic stimulating activity of phenylephrine.
Side effect
Increased blood pressure, tachycardia, drowsiness, difficulty falling asleep, dizziness, increased excitability, dry mucous membranes, mydriasis, accommodation paresis, increased intraocular pressure, loss of appetite, nausea, epigastric pain, anemia. Very rare: urinary retention, allergic reactions (skin rash, itching, urticaria, angioedema). Rarely: anemia, thrombocytopenia, leukemia, agranulocytosis. With long-term use in high doses, hepatotoxic and nephrotic effects are possible.
Contraindications
- hypersensitivity to any of the components included in the composition; - severe atherosclerosis of the coronary arteries; - arterial hypertension; - diabetes mellitus; - thyrotoxicosis; - angle-closure glaucoma; - severe diseases of the liver, kidneys, heart, bladder; - peptic ulcer of the stomach and duodenum intestines; - diseases of the pancreas; - difficulty urinating with prostate adenoma; - diseases of the blood system; - deficiency of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase; - children under 12 years of age. With caution: congenital hyperbilirubinemia (Gilbert, Dubin-Johnson and Rotor syndromes) , bronchial asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
Overdose
Symptoms caused by paracetamol appear after taking more than 10-15 g: pallor of the skin, decreased appetite, nausea, vomiting, hepatonecrosis, increased activity of liver transaminases, increased prothrombin time. Treatment: gastric lavage in the first 6 hours, administration of SH-group donors and precursors for the synthesis of glutathione-methionine 8-9 hours after an overdose and N-acetylcysteine after 12 hours. In case of accidental overdose, you should immediately consult a doctor, regardless of whether any symptoms of overdose are noted or not.
special instructions
Without a doctor's instructions, the drug should not be used by patients undergoing treatment with other medications, in particular MAO inhibitors. If, despite taking the drug, the disease is accompanied by ongoing fever or repeated increases in temperature are observed, you should consult a doctor. Do not take with alcohol or combine with other drugs containing paracetamol. When using Coldact Flu Plus, it is undesirable to use sleeping pills, tranquilizers and other psychotropic drugs. It distorts laboratory test results in the quantitative determination of glucose and uric acid in plasma. In case of long-term treatment, peripheral blood parameters and the functional state of the liver are monitored. Impact on the ability to drive vehicles and operate machinery During the treatment period, it is necessary to refrain from driving vehicles and engaging in potentially hazardous activities that require increased concentration and speed of psychomotor reactions.
