Polycure Strip Tablet & Capsule side effects
Adverse reactions which were reported as possibly or probably related to treatment (<3%) in clinical trials when all three components of this therapy were given concomitantly are listed below and divided by body systems.
Digestive system: Nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, dark stools, dry mouth, glossitis, oral moniliasis, stomatitis, tongue discoloration; Musculoskeletal system: Myalgia;
Nervous System: Confusion, headache, dizziness; Skin: Skin reactions; Urogenital System: Vaginitis, vaginal moniliasis.
Serious and occasionally fatal hypersensitivity (anaphylactoid) reactions have been reported in patients on Amoxicillin therapy.
Rabeprazole is metabolized through the cytochrome P450 system, specially through the CYP3A and CYP2C19 isozymes. Studies have shown that Rabeprazole does not have clinically significant interactions with other drugs metabolized by the cytochrome P450 system, such as warfarin, antipyrine, indomethacin, ibuprofen, phenytoin, propranolol, prednisolone, diazepam, clarithromycin or terfenadine in healthy subjects. Use of Clarithromycin in patients who are receiving theophylline may be associated with an increase of serum theophylline concentrations. There have been reports of interactions of erythromycin and/or clarithromycin with carbamazepine, cyclosporine, tacrolimus, hexobarbital, phenytoin, alfetanil, disopyramide, lovastatin, bromocriptine, valproate, terfenadine, cisapride, pimozide & astemizole.
There were no adequate and well-controlled studies of in pregnant women. Should be used during pregnancy only if the potential benefit justifies the potential risk of the mother.
Because of the potential for serious adverse reactions in nursing infants, a decision should be made whether to discontinue nursing or to discontinue the drug therapy, taking into account the importance of the therapy to the mother.
Clarithromycin should not be used in pregnant women except in clinical circumstances where no alternative therapy is appropriate. Amoxicillin is excreted in human milk in very small amounts. There are no available human data on Rabeprazol use in pregnant women to inform the drug associated risk.
This drug is contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to any of its component.
