Pakuotės lapelis

Anaesthetics given during
tri/tetracyclic antidepressant therapy may 
increase the risk of arrhythmias and hypotension. If possible,
discontinue 
Deanxit several days before surgery;
if emergency surgery is unavoidable, the 
anaesthetist should be informed that the patient is being so
treated.
Use in children and adolescents under the age of 18
Deanxit is not recommended for use in children and
adolescents due 
to lack of data on efficacy and safety. Treatment with
Deanxit is 
associated with a risk of cardiovascular adverse events in all age
groups.

The tablets contain lactose monohydrate and sucrose. Patients with 
rare hereditary problems of galactose or fructose intolerance,
the 
Lapp lactase deficiency or glucose-galactose malabsorption or
