It is necessary to strictly adhere to the compliance of the dosage form of a specific drug with the indications for use and dosage regimen.

Administer orally after diluting the drops in a small quantity of water, ensuring intake occurs 30 minutes before meals to optimize absorption.

For adult patients, prescribe a dosage of 30-40 drops, to be taken 3-4 times daily.

The standard treatment course spans 10-15 days. Do not initiate repeated courses without medical consultation; maintain an interval of at least 1-1.5 months between treatment cycles as recommended by a physician.

Influence on the ability to drive vehicles and mechanisms

It contains Diphenhydramine and ethanol, therefore, during the period of use, it is necessary to refrain from engaging in potentially hazardous activities that require increased concentration and speed of psychomotor reactions.

Drug Interactions

Exercise extreme caution with concomitant use of other central nervous system depressants, including sedatives, hypnotics, tranquilizers, and neuroleptics, due to the risk of mutual enhancement of depressive effects.

Avoid concurrent use with monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs) and other drugs metabolized by liver enzymes without medical supervision.

Overdose

Symptoms of overdose are primarily an extension of the drug’s pharmacological effects and may manifest as pronounced sedation, drowsiness, or confusion.

In severe cases, expect significant depression of the central nervous system, potentially leading to stupor. There is no specific antidote; management involves gastric lavage, administration of activated charcoal, and provision of supportive and symptomatic care.
