Adverse
reactions
In
certain cases, parenteral administration can produce a
drop in blood pressure. Pressure returns to normal values
within the next hours.
Dicynone 250 ampoule contains sodium ersulphite as antioxidant
that may cause allergic reactions, nausea and diarrhea
in susceptible patients.
The allergic reactions may leadd to anaphylactic shock
and cause life-threatening asthma attacks. The incidence
in the population is not known but is probably low. However,
hypersensitivity toward sulphites is observed more frequetly
in asthmatics than in non-asthmatics (see limitations
for use). In case of hypersensitivity reactions, the administration
of Dicynone 250 ampoules must be immediately stopped.
Rare: gastralgia, nausea, headache, skin rash.
In most cases, these symptoms disappear spontaneously.
If they persist, the dosage should be reduced or the treatment
withdrawn. |
