Warnings Geffer Effervecent Granules 24 Sachets 5 g - About Geffer Effervecent Granules 24 Sachets 5 g it is important to know that:

Avoid concomitant administration of neuroleptics, phenothiazines, butyrophenones, thioxanthenes, etc., sedatives and alcohol.

In case of symptoms of neuroleptic malignant syndrome, metoclopramide must be discontinued immediately and appropriate treatment must be instituted. Use of the product may give rise to disturbances that alter the normal state of alertness; patients involved in driving vehicles or operating potentially dangerous machinery should take this into account.

INTERACTIONS

Interactions Geffer Effervesce Granules 24 Sachets 5 g - Which medicines or foods can modify the effect of Geffer Effervesce Granules 24 Sachets 5 g?'

The sedative effects of metoclopramide are potentiated by alcohol. Anticholinergics and morphine derivatives antagonize the intestinal motility of metoclopramide. The sedative effects of CNS depressants (morphine derivatives, hypnotics, anxiolytics, sedative antihistamines, sedative antidepressants, barbiturates, etc.) and of metoclopramide are potentiated. The association of metoclopramide with drugs inducing extrapyramidal effects such as phenothiazines, butyrophenones and thioxanthenes should be avoided (in particular, the activity of phenothiazines is increased, independently of the appearance or potentiation of extrapyramidal effects). It increases the effects of MAOIs, sympathomimetics, and tricyclic antidepressants. Due to the prokinetic effect of metoclopramide, the absorption of some drugs may be altered. Metoclopramide may reduce the bioavailability of digoxin, while increasing the bioavailability of ciclosporin. It reduces the CNS effects of apomorphine. It reduces the bioavailability of cimetidine by an average of approximately 22%, without however having clinically relevant consequences. Metoclopramide interacts with serotonergic drugs (e.g. selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors), increasing the risk of serotonin syndrome.
