Warnings and precautions
These medicines take two to four weeks to begin working, and longer for the full effect. Stopping at two weeks because nothing has changed is the commonest mistake. Never stop suddenly. Abrupt withdrawal causes dizziness, electric-shock sensations, irritability and flu-like symptoms — your doctor will reduce the dose gradually. Tell your doctor or go to hospital immediately if thoughts of harming yourself appear or worsen, particularly in the first weeks or after a dose change, and especially in anyone under twenty-five. Seek urgent care for agitation with fever, shivering, a racing heart, muscle twitching or confusion, particularly if more than one medicine affecting serotonin is being taken. Side effects are usually worst in the first fortnight and then settle.
Do not take Prothiaden if
Not for anyone with a known allergy to this medicine or to any ingredient in the pack. Must not be combined with a monoamine oxidase inhibitor, or started within the gap your doctor specifies after one.
Interactions with other medicines
Tramadol, triptans for migraine, linezolid, St John's wort and other antidepressants can together raise serotonin dangerously. Anti-inflammatory painkillers and blood thinners increase the bleeding risk when combined with this group.
How to store Prothiaden 75 mg
Store below 30°C in the original pack, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Keep out of the reach of children.
Quick tips for Prothiaden 75 mg
- Give it a fair trial of several weeks, and keep your review appointments.
- Take it at the same time each day.
- At night if it makes you drowsy, in the morning if it disturbs sleep.
- Talking therapy alongside medicine works better than either alone for most people.
