Zatofen Tablets Warnings

Warning 1

Ketotifen may increase the effects of sedatives, anti-histamines, medicines used to treat depression or anxiety, anticoagulants to reduce the ability of the blood to clot and alcohol.

Warning 2

As ketotifen may lower the seizure threshold it should be used with caution in patients with a history of epilepsy. Convulsions have been reported very rarely during ketotifen therapy.

Warning 3

Thrombocytopenia may occur in patients taking ketotifen at the same time as oral antidiabetic drugs (biguanides). The simultaneous administration of these drugs should therefore be avoided .
