Special Warning : אזהרת שימוש

4.4   Special warnings and precautions for use
If intercurrent infection occurs, Profiten treatment must be supplemented by specific antimicrobial therapy.
Convulsions have been reported very rarely during Profiten therapy. As Profiten may lower the seizure threshold it should be used with caution in patients with a history of epilepsy.
Thrombocytopenia may occur in patients taking Profiten at the same time as oral antidiabetic drugs (biguanides). The simultaneous administration of these drugs should therefore be avoided (see section 4.3).
In case of reduced attention, possibly due to the sedating effect of Profiten, the dose should be reduced.

Excipients with known effect:
Profiten Tablets contains Lactose. Patients with rare hereditary problems of galactose intolerance, total lactase deficiency or glucose-galactose malabsorption should not take this medicine.

Effects on Driving

4.7   Effects on ability to drive and use machines
During the first few days of treatment with Profiten reactions may be impaired. Patients should be warned not to take charge of vehicles or machinery until the effect of Profiten treatment on the individual is known. Patients should be advised to avoid alcoholic drinks.
