Meridia Appetite Suppressant & Diet Pill |  |
USES: Meridia
is an appetite suppressant which, when is used in conjunction with
an overall diet plan, can reduce weight.
HOW TO TAKE THIS MEDICATION: Meridia
should be taken on an empty stomach, 30-60 minutes before breakfast.
The full effect on your weight may require four to six weeks to become
noticeable. You must not increase your dose, take it more frequently
or use it for longer than prescribed as this drug can be habit-forming.
The tablet can be broken or cut in half, but must not be crushed or
chewed. If you use Meridia for an extended period of time, do not
suddenly stop using it. You must first seek your doctor's approval.
Over a period of time, Meridia may become less effective than it was
at the beginning of your treatment. You should consult your doctor
if your weight begins to increase.
SIDE EFFECTS: These include a dry mouth,
constipation, drowsiness, and difficulty sleeping. If any of these
side effects persist or become troublesome, notify your doctor immediately.
PRECAUTIONS: Inform your doctor of your
complete medical history, particularly if you suffer from any allergies
(especially drug allergies), liver or kidney disease, history of stroke
or seizures, certain eating disorders (e.g., anorexia nervosa), high
blood pressure or heart disease, glaucoma (narrow angle), or history
of gallstones. Consult with your doctor if you are pregnant or are
planning pregnancy. It is unknown as to whether this drug is excreted
into breast milk, so breast-feeding is not recommended while using
this drug (consult your doctor before breast-feeding). It is advised
to limit alcohol use while taking this medication as it can worsen
certain side effects. Elderly patients are advised to use this drug
cautiously as they may be more sensitive to the effects of the drug.
For any further information consult your doctor or pharmacist.
DRUG INTERACTIONS: Tell your doctor
about any medicines that you use, (including both prescription and
non-prescription) particularly if you take weight loss medicines (for
example, diethylpropion), any drugs that can raise blood pressure
( such as decongestants, for example pseudoephedrine or phenylpropanolamine).
You must also consult your doctor if you take any cough suppressants
(for example, dextromethorphan), antidepressants (for example, nefazodone,
fluoxetine, paroxetine, sertraline, fluvoxamine, venlafaxine), lithium
or other psychiatric medications (for example, MAO Inhibitors such
as selegiline, moclobemide, furazolidone, phenelzine, tranylcypromine),
drugs for migraines (for example, dihydroergotamine, sumatriptan),
tryptophan, erythromycin, high blood pressure medicine, certain narcotic
pain relievers (for example, meperidine, pentazocine, fentanyl), ketoconazole,
or any drugs which can cause drowsiness (including certain antihistamines,
for example, diphenhydramine), sedatives and anti-seizure drugs. Many
non-prescription drugs for cough and cold contain antihistamines and
decongestants. You must not take Meridia if you are taking MAO Inhibitors
(see above). If you stop taking an MAO Inhibitor or Meridia, you must
wait al least 2 weeks before starting the other drug. Consult your
pharmacist if you have any queries.
NOTES: Appetite suppressants are not
designed as a substitute for a proper diet. For maximum effects, Meridia
should be used in conjunction with an overall diet plan and exercise
program. This medication should not be shared with others. Pulse and
blood pressure tests along with laboratory tests may be performed
to monitor side effects.
MISSED DOSE: It is recommended that
if you miss a dose of this medicine, you should take it as soon as
possible. If it is almost time for your next dose of Meridia, skip
the missed dose and return to your normal dosing schedule. Never take
2 doses at once.
STORAGE: Meridia should be stored at
room temperature (between 59 and 86 degrees F, or 15 and 30 degrees
C). It should be kept away from light and moisture. As with all medicines,
Meridia should be kept out of the reach of children.
