Use of Sipraktin with Food and Beverage

There are no features in the use of Sipraktin Syrup with food and drinks. However, it should not be used with alcohol.

Use of Sipraktin in Pregnancy

Always consult your doctor or pharmacist before using the drug. There are not enough studies conducted on pregnant women. For this reason, the risk and benefit factors should be considered by your doctor in the use of pregnant women.

If you notice that you are pregnant during your treatment, consult your doctor or pharmacist immediately.

Use of Sipraktin During Breastfeeding

Always consult your doctor or pharmacy before using the drug. If therapeutic doses of Sipraktin are administered to lactating women, cyproheptadine HCl is passed into breast milk to the extent that it can cause an effect on the child in the breast. Therefore, it should not be used during breastfeeding.

Using While Driving

It is expected to reduce the patient’s attention while driving. Therefore, cars and vehicles should not be used immediately after taking Sipraktin.

If You Have Used More Sipraktin Than You Should

Overdoses of antihistamines, especially in children, can lead to reactions and symptoms ranging from central nervous system suppression to arousal.

In addition, atropine-like effects are observed (dry mouth, enlarged pupils, redness of the face, various signs of digestive system disorders). If spontaneous vomiting occurred during these symptoms, the patient should induce vomiting. In cases where vomiting is not possible, the stomach should be washed with isotonic sodium chloride solution in the hospital environment.

Saline cathartics to be used to quickly empty the intestines are also useful. Stimulants should never be used during this treatment.
