CLINICAL PARTICULARS
4.1 THERAPEUTIC INDICATIONS
ZILDON tablets are indicated for the symptomatic treatment of mild to

4.2 POSOLOGY AND METHOD OF ADMINISTRATION
Adults/Elderly:
Treatment is initiated at 5 mg/day (once-a-day dosing). ZILDON should
be taken orally, in the evening, just prior

mg/day, the dose of ZILDON can be
increased to 10 mg/day (once-a-day dosing). The maximum recommended
daily dose is 10 mg. Doses greater
than 10 mg/day have not been studied in clinical trials.
