PART II SUMMARY OF PRODUCT CHARACTERISTICS 1 NAME OF THE MEDICINAL PRODUCT NOOTROPIL 1200 mg Film-coated tablets. 2 QUALITATIVE AND QUANTITATIVE COMPOSITION Each tablet contains 1200 mg of Piracetam. For a full list of excipients, see section 6.1. 3 PHARMACEUTICAL FORM Film coated tablet. White oblong scored tablet marked N/N. 4 CLINICAL PARTICULARS 4.1 THERAPEUTIC INDICATIONS Treatment of cortical myoclonus, alone or in combination. 4.2 POSOLOGY AND METHOD OF ADMINISTRATION Nootropil Oral Solution 33% w/w will be administered orally and may be taken with or without food. Adults: The daily dosage should begin at 7.2 g/day, increasing by 4.8 g/day every 3 days up to a maximum of 24 g/day, given in either 2 or 3 divided doses. Treatment with other antimyoclonic drugs should remain unchanged at their optimal dosage. If possible, depending on clinical benefit, an attempt should be made to subsequently reduce the dosage of other antimyoclonic drugs. Once started treatment should be continued for as long as the condition persists. In patients with an acute episode, spontaneous evolution may occur over time and an attempt should be made at six month intervals to decrease or discontinue treatment. This may be accomplished by gradually reducing the daily piracetam dose by 1.2 g at two day intervals (or four days in the case of Lance or Adams syndrome) so as to prevent the possibility of sudden relapse or withdrawal seizures.

For long term treatment in the elderly, regular evaluation of the creatinine clearance is required to allow dosage adaptation if needed. Dosage adjustment in patients Belgenin tamamını okuyun
