special instructions
When taking Cytoflavin orally, patients with hypertension may need to adjust the doses of antihypertensive drugs taken simultaneously.
In the process of treating newborns (including premature babies) by intravenous administration of a solution of Cytoflavin, it is necessary to monitor the acid-base state of capillary blood at least 2 times a day - before and during infusion. It is also recommended to monitor serum lactate and glucose levels whenever possible.
Situations in which the rate of administration of Cytoflavin should be reduced or the infusion of the drug should be temporarily stopped in newborn (premature) children:
- the appearance of signs of respiratory-metabolic (mixed) alkalosis, which threatens to impair cerebral circulation in children on artificial respiration;
- the appearance of laboratory signs of metabolic alkalosis, threatening the appearance or increased frequency of apnea attacks, in children with preserved spontaneous breathing with respiratory support by the CPAP method (Continuous Positive Airway Pressure), or receiving an air-oxygen mixture through a mask.
Patients with diabetes mellitus are treated under the control of blood glucose concentration.
In the course of drug therapy, it is possible to stain urine in an intense yellow color.
The use of Cytoflavin does not affect the ability to drive vehicles, work with moving machines and mechanisms, perform the work of dispatchers and operators.
Drug interactions
Inosine, succinic acid and nicotinamide, which are part of Cytoflavin, are compatible with medicinal substances / preparations used simultaneously.
Pharmacological interaction of riboflavin:
- doxycycline, tetracycline, oxytetracycline, erythromycin and lincomycin: their activity decreases;
- imipramine, chlorpromazine, amitriptyline: increase the excretion of riboflavin in the urine;
- thyroid hormones: accelerate its metabolism;
- chloramphenicol: riboflavin reduces and prevents such side effects as optic neuritis, hematopoietic disorders;
- drugs that stimulate hematopoiesis, antihypoxants, anabolic steroids: riboflavin is compatible with these drugs;
- streptomycin: incompatible with riboflavin.
