Uses & Benefits
Carnitine deficiency (primary or secondary), carnitine deficiency in patients on hemodialysis/renal disease, adjunct in metabolic disorders where carnitine supplementation is indicated (as prescribed).

Warnings & Precautions

Use with caution in patients with seizure disorders (may precipitate seizures in susceptible individuals), renal impairment, or those on dialysis as dosing may need adjustment. Monitor for hypersensitivity reactions. Inform doctor if you have diabetes (may affect glucose control) or are on anticoagulants.
Drug Interactions
Warfarin (may increase INR/bleeding risk), acenocoumarol (increased anticoagulant effect); no major interactions known with most medicines but review all current drugs with the prescriber.
