Occasionally, allergic reactions including rash, itching, urticaria, bronchospasm, mild transient headache or dizziness, and dose-related urinary frequency have been reported. Very rare reports of arrhythmias, including ventricular tachycardia, ventricular fibrillation, torsade de pointes, and QT prolongation. Most of these patients often take several other drugs at the same time - including drugs that inhibit the CYP3A4 enzyme, or have heart disease and risk factors for arrhythmias.

Precautions

Patients with known allergies to this product are contraindicated. Concomitant oral or parenteral use of drugs that strongly inhibit CYP3A4 enzymes is prohibited, including: triazole antifungal drugs; macrolide antibiotics; HIV protease inhibitors; nefazodone; (see Drug Interactions).

Although the amount excreted through breast milk is very small, it is still recommended that breastfeeding mothers do not use it. Precautions for the elderly: In the elderly, due to the moderate extension of the elimination half-life, the steady-state plasma concentration will generally increase, so the therapeutic dose should be reduced as appropriate.

Drug Interactions

The main metabolic pathway of this product is through CYP3A4 enzyme metabolism. If the drug that can inhibit this enzyme is taken orally or parenterally at the same time, it may lead to an increase in plasma cisapride concentration, thereby increasing the QT interval and the risk of arrhythmia, including ventricular tachycardia, ventricular fibrillation and torsade de pointes. Therefore, it is forbidden to take it at the same time with these drugs.
