Uses
Pipazethate is a non-opioid antitussive indicated for the symptomatic relief of dry, irritating, non-productive cough in adults and children. It acts centrally to suppress the cough reflex.
Do not use if
Contraindicated in patients with hypersensitivity to pipazethate. Should be used with caution in patients with productive cough, as suppressing such cough may be harmful.
Side effects
Side effects are generally mild and may include drowsiness, dry mouth, nausea, and gastrointestinal discomfort. Allergic reactions are rare.
Warnings
Avoid use in children under 2 years except under medical supervision. Use with caution in patients with respiratory insufficiency.
How it works
Pipazethate acts centrally on the cough center in the medulla to suppress the cough reflex. Unlike opioids, it does not cause significant respiratory depression or dependence at therapeutic doses.
Storage
Store at room temperature (15–25°C), protected from light and moisture.
