class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Cocillana-Etyfin Is And What It Is Used For<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Cocillana-Ethyphin is used for whooping <a href=\"https:\/\/zeepedia.com\/medical\/diseases\/cough-in-children\/\">cough<\/a>.<br><\/strong>Cocillana-Etyfin in English contains ethylmorphine which has an antitussive effect.&nbsp;Cocillana-Etyfin also contains&nbsp;cocillana extracts&nbsp;and&nbsp;senega extracts&nbsp;which are traditionally considered to have a certain expectorant effect.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What You Need To Know Before You Take Cocillana Etyfin<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Do Not Take Cocillana Cough Syrup!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>If you are allergic to ethylmorphine hydrochloride,&nbsp;cocillana extract,&nbsp;senega extract,&nbsp;or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6).<\/li><li>If you have impaired breathing (&nbsp;respiratory depression&nbsp;).<\/li><li>In children and adolescents (0-18 years) who have obstructive sleep apnea syndrome, or are undergoing, or is

Cautions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Talk to your doctor or pharmacist before taking <strong>cocillana cough syrup<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Talk to your doctor before starting treatment with Cocillana-Etyfin in English if you have&nbsp;asthma.&nbsp;Ethylmorphine can worsen breathing problems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have any disease that affects your breathing, you should tell your doctor before starting treatment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You should not use etyfin for long-term treatment because there is a certain risk of developing addiction in high&nbsp;doses&nbsp;and long-term use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ethyl morphine is converted to morphine in the liver by an&nbsp;enzyme.&nbsp;It is morphine that gives the cough suppressant effect.&nbsp;The ability to convert ethylmorphine differs between different people, and one can therefore be affected in different ways.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;Some people have an increased risk of getting serious&nbsp;side effects&nbsp;because a large amount of morphine can be formed quickly in the liver.&nbsp;If you get any of the following&nbsp;side effects, you must stop taking this medicine and contact a doctor immediately: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Slow or shallow breathing<\/li><li>Confusion<\/li><li>Drowsiness<\/li><li>Small&nbsp;pupils<\/li><li>Nausea or vomiting<\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/zeepedia.com\/medical\/diseases\/constipation\/\">Constipation<\/a><\/li><li>Loss of appetite<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;If you have previously reacted strongly to medicines containing ethylmorphine of&nbsp;codeine&nbsp;you should tell your doctor before starting treatment.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Use In Children With Respiratory Problems<\/strong>&nbsp;<br>Ethylmorphine is not recommended for children with respiratory problems that may occur in, for example, <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Neuromuscular
