Oxytrol System

Pronunciation: OX-i-BUE-ti-nin
Generic Name: Oxybutynin
Brand Name: Oxytrol

Oxytrol System is used for:

Relieving symptoms of bladder problems (urinary urgency, frequency, or leakage; loss of bladder control; and painful urination) in certain patients. It may also be used for other conditions as determined by your doctor.

Oxytrol System is an anticholinergic. It works by relaxing muscles in the bladder.

Do NOT use Oxytrol System if:

• you are allergic to any ingredient in Oxytrol System


• you have bladder blockage or are unable to urinate


• you have certain stomach or bowel problems (eg, blockage, decreased muscle movement)


• you have uncontrolled narrow-angle glaucoma


• you are taking a solid oral potassium product (eg, tablet)

Contact your doctor or health care provider right away if any of these apply to you.

Before using Oxytrol System:

Some medical conditions may interact with Oxytrol System. Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you have any medical conditions, especially if any of the following apply to you:

• if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or are breast-feeding


• if you are taking any prescription or nonprescription medicine, herbal preparation, or dietary supplement


• if you have allergies to medicines, foods, or other substances


• if you have trouble urinating or have very poor health


• if you have a history of heart problems (eg, heart failure, fast or irregular heartbeat), high blood pressure, nervous system problems, liver or kidney problems, myasthenia gravis, an enlarged prostate, an overactive thyroid, esophagus problems (eg, reflux disease, inflammation, narrowing), stomach or bowel problems (eg, colitis, inflammation, constipation), or a hiatal hernia


• if you have a history of glaucoma or increased pressure in the eyes, or if you are at risk of glaucoma (eg, family history of glaucoma)

Some MEDICINES MAY INTERACT with Oxytrol System. Tell your health care provider if you are taking any other medicines, especially any of the following:

• Bisphosphonates (eg, alendronate) because the risk of irritation of the esophagus may be increased


• Other anticholinergic medicines (eg, scopolamine), azole antifungals (eg, ketoconazole), or macrolide antibiotics (eg, erythromycin) because they may increase the risk of Oxytrol System's side effects


• Solid oral potassium products (eg, tablets) because the risk of stomach or bowel irritation may be increased by Oxytrol System


• Phenothiazines (eg, chlorpromazine) because their effectiveness may be decreased by Oxytrol System and they may increase the risk of Oxytrol System's side effects

This may not be a complete list of all interactions that may occur. Ask your health care provider if Oxytrol System may interact with other medicines that you take. Check with your health care provider before you start, stop, or change the dose of any medicine.

How to use Oxytrol System:

Use Oxytrol System as directed by your doctor. Check the label on the medicine for exact dosing instructions.

• An extra patient leaflet is available with Oxytrol System. Talk to your pharmacist if you have questions about this information.


• Apply the patch to a clean, dry, smooth area of your skin on your stomach, hips, or buttocks. Apply it to an area under clothing to protect it from sunlight. Avoid applying it to your waistline because clothing may rub against the patch.


• Do NOT apply the patch to oily, damaged, or irritated skin. Avoid using oils, lotions, or powders near the application site because the patch may not stick to your skin.


• To use Oxytrol System, open the pouch and remove the patch. Apply it right away. Carefully remove the first protective liner and place the patch firmly onto your skin. Do not touch the adhesive side of the patch. Bend the patch in half and gently roll the remaining part onto your skin. The second protective liner should come off of the patch. Gently apply firm pressure over the patch to be sure it stays in place.


• When it is time to apply a new patch, remove the old patch carefully. Fold the patch in half with the sticky sides together. Discard the patch out of the reach of children and pets because it may still contain medicine.


• Use a different skin site each time you apply a new patch. Do not reuse the same site within 7 days.


• Use Oxytrol System on a regular schedule to get the most benefit from it. Using Oxytrol System at the same time each day will help you remember to use it.


• Continue to use Oxytrol System even if you feel well. Do not miss any doses.


• If the patch comes off, press it back in place and continue to follow your regular application schedule. If it does not stay on, throw it away and put a new patch on in a different area. Continue to follow your regular application schedule.


• If you forget to change the patch on the correct day, remove the old patch and apply a new patch to a different application site as soon as you remember. Continue to follow your regular application schedule. Do not use 2 patches at once.

Ask your health care provider any questions you may have about how to use Oxytrol System.

Important safety information:

• Oxytrol System may cause drowsiness, dizziness, or blurred vision. These effects may be worse if you take it with alcohol or certain medicines. Use Oxytrol System with caution. Do not drive or perform other possibly unsafe tasks until you know how you react to it.


• Check with your doctor before you drink alcohol or use medicines that may cause drowsiness (eg, sleep aids, muscle relaxers) while you are using Oxytrol System; it may add to their effects. Ask your pharmacist if you have questions about which medicines may cause drowsiness.


• Oxytrol System may cause decreased sweating. Do not become overheated in hot weather or while you are being active; heatstroke may occur. Contact your doctor if you have been exposed to high temperatures and you develop fever; flushing; hot, dry skin; severe or persistent headache; dizziness; sudden fatigue; fast heartbeat; seizures; or fainting.


• Oxytrol System may cause dry mouth. To help relieve dry mouth, suck on sugarless hard candy or ice chips, chew sugarless gum, drink water, or use a saliva substitute. Ask your doctor or pharmacist if you have any questions.


• A serious side effect called angioedema has been reported with the use of oral dosage forms of Oxytrol System (eg, tablets). Contact your doctor at once if you develop swelling of the hands, face, lips, eyes, throat, or tongue; difficulty swallowing or breathing; or hoarseness.


• Using Oxytrol System while bathing, swimming, showering, or exercising will not change the way it works. However, avoid rubbing the patch area during these activities.


• Always remove the patch carefully and slowly to avoid damage to your skin. If there is adhesive left on your skin, gently wash the area with warm, soapy water. You may also use baby oil or a medical adhesive removal pad if needed. Do not use alcohol or nail polish remover because these may irritate the skin.


• After removing the patch, there may be minor redness of your skin. It should disappear after several hours. Tell your doctor if the irritation or redness becomes worse or if it does not go away.


• Use Oxytrol System with caution in the ELDERLY; they may be more sensitive to its effects.


• Oxytrol System should be used with extreme caution in CHILDREN; safety and effectiveness in children have not been confirmed.


• PREGNANCY and BREAST-FEEDING: It is not known if Oxytrol System can cause harm to the fetus. If you become pregnant, contact your doctor. You will need to discuss the benefits and risks of using Oxytrol System while you are pregnant. It is not known if Oxytrol System is found in breast milk. If you are or will be breast-feeding while you use Oxytrol System, check with your doctor. Discuss any possible risks to your baby.

Possible side effects of Oxytrol System:

All medicines may cause side effects, but many people have no, or minor, side effects. Check with your doctor if any of these most COMMON side effects persist or become bothersome:

Blurred vision; constipation; diarrhea; dizziness; drowsiness; dry eyes, nose, skin, or mouth; headache; indigestion; nausea; minor redness, itching, or irritation at patch application site; stomach pain.

Seek medical attention right away if any of these SEVERE side effects occur:

Pronunciation: dye-men-HYE-dri-nate
Generic Name: Dimenhydrinate
Brand Name: Examples include Dramamine and Travel-Eze

Dimenhydrinate is used for:

Preventing and treating nausea, vomiting, and dizziness caused by motion sickness. It may also be used for other conditions as determined by your doctor.

Dimenhydrinate is an antihistamine and anticholinergic. It works in the brain to decrease nausea, vomiting, and dizziness.

Do NOT use Dimenhydrinate if:

• you are allergic to any ingredient in Dimenhydrinate or other similar medicines


• you are taking sodium oxybate (GHB)


• you are currently taking or have taken a monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibitor (eg, phenelzine) in the past 14 days


• you are breast-feeding

Contact your doctor or health care provider right away if any of these apply to you.

Before using Dimenhydrinate:

Some medical conditions may interact with Dimenhydrinate. Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you have any medical conditions, especially if any of the following apply to you:

• if you are pregnant or planning to become pregnant


• if you are taking any prescription or nonprescription medicine, herbal preparation, or dietary supplement


• if you have allergies to medicines, foods, or other substances


• if you have asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), chronic bronchitis, emphysema, lung disease, shortness of breath, or sleep apnea


• if you have a blockage of the stomach, intestine, or urinary tract; difficulty urinating; diabetes; ulcers; enlargement of the prostate; glaucoma; heart disease; irregular heartbeat; high blood pressure; porphyria; or thyroid disease

Some MEDICINES MAY INTERACT with Dimenhydrinate. Tell your health care provider if you are taking any other medicines, especially any of the following:

• Sodium oxybate (GHB) because an increase in sleep duration and a decrease in the ability to breathe are likely to occur


• MAO inhibitors (eg, phenelzine) because serious side effects, such as high blood pressure or seizure, may occur


• Antibiotics that may cause hearing problems (eg, gentamicin, vancomycin) because Dimenhydrinate may mask symptoms of hearing problems

This may not be a complete list of all interactions that may occur. Ask your health care provider if Dimenhydrinate may interact with other medicines that you take. Check with your health care provider before you start, stop, or change the dose of any medicine.

How to use Dimenhydrinate:

Use Dimenhydrinate as directed by your doctor. Check the label on the medicine for exact dosing instructions.

• Dimenhydrinate may be taken with or without food.


• Use Dimenhydrinate exactly as directed on the package, unless instructed differently by your doctor. If you are taking Dimenhydrinate without a prescription, follow any warnings and precautions on the label.


• Take the first dose at least 30 minutes before activity or travel.


• If you miss a dose of Dimenhydrinate and you are taking it regularly, take it as soon as possible. If it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and go back to your regular dosing schedule. Do not take 2 doses at once.

Ask your health care provider any questions you may have about how to use Dimenhydrinate.

Important safety information:

• Dimenhydrinate may cause drowsiness or dizziness. Do not drive, operate machinery, or do anything else that could be dangerous until you know how you react to Dimenhydrinate. Using Dimenhydrinate alone, with certain other medicines, or with alcohol may lessen your ability to drive or to perform other potentially dangerous tasks.


• Avoid drinking alcohol or taking other medications that cause drowsiness (eg, sedatives, tranquilizers) while taking Dimenhydrinate. Dimenhydrinate will add to the effects of alcohol and other depressants. Ask your pharmacist if you have questions about which medicines are depressants.


• Dimenhydrinate may cause dizziness. Alcohol, hot weather, exercise, and fever can increase this effect. To prevent it, sit up or stand slowly, especially in the morning. Also, sit or lie down at the first sign of dizziness.


• Do not exceed the recommended dose or use Dimenhydrinate more frequently or for longer than prescribed without first checking with your doctor.


• Do not become overheated in hot weather or during exercise or other activities since heatstroke may occur.


• Dimenhydrinate may cause increased sensitivity to the sun. Avoid exposure to the sun, sunlamps, or tanning booths until you know how you react to Dimenhydrinate. Use a sunscreen or protective clothing if you must be outside for a prolonged period.


• Do not use Dimenhydrinate with any medicine that contains diphenhydramine. Before you begin taking any new prescription or nonprescription medicine, including one used on the skin, read the ingredients to see if it also contains diphenhydramine or another similar medicine (eg, antihistamine). If it does, or if you are uncertain if it does, contact your doctor or pharmacist.


• Use Dimenhydrinate with caution in the ELDERLY because they may be more sensitive to its effects, especially dizziness, sedation, and lightheadedness upon standing.


• Safe use and instructions for use in CHILDREN differs according to the brand used. Talk to your doctor or pharmacist if you have any questions about the brand you are using.


• Use of Dimenhydrinate is not recommended in CHILDREN younger than 2 years of age without first talking with the child's doctor. Safety and effectiveness in this age group have not been confirmed.


• PREGNANCY and BREAST-FEEDING: If you become pregnant, discuss with your doctor the benefits and risks of using Dimenhydrinate during pregnancy. Dimenhydrinate is excreted in breast milk. Do not breast-feed while taking Dimenhydrinate.

Possible side effects of Dimenhydrinate:

All medicines may cause side effects, but many people have no, or minor, side effects. Check with your doctor if any of these most COMMON side effects persist or become bothersome:

Dizziness; drowsiness; dry mouth, throat, and nose; thickening of mucus in nose or throat.

Seek medical attention right away if any of these SEVERE side effects occur:

Severe allergic reactions (rash; hives; difficulty breathing; tightness in the chest; swelling of the mouth, face, lips, or tongue); chest pain; convulsions; decreased alertness; difficulty urinating; excessive excitability; fast or irregular heartbeat; fever, chills, or sore throat; hallucinations; mental or mood changes; pounding in the chest; seizures; tremor; unusual bruising or bleeding; wheezing; yellowing of the eyes or skin.

This is not a complete list of all side effects that may occur. If you have questions about side effects, contact your health care provider. Call your doctor for medical advice about side effects. To report side effects to the appropriate agency, please read the Guide to Reporting Problems to FDA.

Olopatadine Spray

Pronunciation: OH-loe-PA-ta-deen
Generic Name: Olopatadine
Brand Name: Patanase

Olopatadine Spray is used for:

Treating allergy symptoms such as sneezing and itchy, runny nose. It may also be used for other conditions as determined by your doctor.

Olopatadine Spray is an antihistamine nasal spray. It works by blocking the action of histamine, which reduces allergy symptoms.

Do NOT use Olopatadine Spray if:

• you are allergic to any ingredient in Olopatadine Spray

Contact your doctor or health care provider right away if any of these apply to you.

Before using Olopatadine Spray:

Some medical conditions may interact with Olopatadine Spray. Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you have any medical conditions, especially if any of the following apply to you:

• if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or are breast-feeding


• if you are taking any prescription or nonprescription medicine, herbal preparation, or dietary supplement


• if you have allergies to medicines, foods, or other substances


• if you have an infection in the nose, a history of nasal injury, or any other nose problems (eg, blockage, narrowing, sores, ulcers)

Some MEDICINES MAY INTERACT with Olopatadine Spray. Because little, if any, of Olopatadine Spray is absorbed into the blood, the risk of it interacting with another medicine is low.

Ask your health care provider if Olopatadine Spray may interact with other medicines that you take. Check with your health care provider before you start, stop, or change the dose of any medicine.

How to use Olopatadine Spray:

Use Olopatadine Spray as directed by your doctor. Check the label on the medicine for exact dosing instructions.

• Before using Olopatadine Spray for the first time, you must prime the pump. To do this, point the pump away from yourself and others. Spray 5 times or until a fine mist appears.


• Re-prime the pump if it has not been used for more than 7 days. To do this, point the pump away from yourself and others, then spray 2 times.


• To use a nose spray, gently blow your nose. Tip your head down with your chin toward your chest and place the tip of the spray container into the nose. Be sure to aim the container tip toward the cheek side of the nose away from the center of the nose. Using a finger from your other hand, press against the opposite nostril to close it off. Breathe gently through the open nostril and squeeze the spray container. If you are using more than 1 spray, wait for 1 to 2 minutes between sprays. Do not tip your head back or blow your nose right after using Olopatadine Spray. After using the medicine, rinse the tip of the spray unit in hot water and dry with a clean tissue to prevent contamination.


• Throw away any medicine that is left in the bottle after you have used 240 sprays (not counting the sprays used to prime the bottle for the first time). You may no longer receive the correct amount of medicine with each spray.


• If you miss a dose of Olopatadine Spray, use it as soon as possible. If it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and go back to your regular dosing schedule. Do not use 2 doses at once.

Duraclon

Pronunciation: KLON-i-deen
Generic Name: Clonidine
Brand Name: Duraclon

Duraclon is not recommended for treating pain during or following childbirth, or that associated with surgery because of the risk of developing very low blood pressure and an unusually slow heartbeat. However, there may be rare situations in which the potential benefits may outweigh the possible risks. Contact your doctor for more details.

Duraclon is used for:

Treating severe pain along with opioid (narcotic) pain medicines in certain cancer patients. It may also be used for other conditions as determined by your doctor.

Duraclon is an alpha-agonist analgesic. It works in the spinal cord by preventing pain signal transmission to the brain.

Do NOT use Duraclon if:

• you are allergic to any ingredient in Duraclon


• you have bleeding problems


• you have an infection at the injection site


• you are taking an anticoagulant (eg, warfarin, heparin)

Contact your doctor or health care provider right away if any of these apply to you.

Before using Duraclon:

Some medical conditions may interact with Duraclon. Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you have any medical conditions, especially if any of the following apply to you:

• if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or are breast-feeding


• if you are taking any prescription or nonprescription medicine, herbal preparation, or dietary supplement


• if you have allergies to medicines, foods, or other substances


• if you have a history of kidney problems, blood vessel problems (eg, in the brain), heart problems, high or low blood pressure, the blood disease porphyria, or mental or mood problems (eg, depression)


• if you have low blood volume or you have had a stroke or a recent heart attack


• if you are scheduled for surgery

Some MEDICINES MAY INTERACT with Duraclon. Tell your health care provider if you are taking any other medicines, especially any of the following:

• Anticoagulant therapy (eg, warfarin, heparin) because the risk of bleeding at the injection site may be increased


• Beta-blockers (eg, propranolol), calcium channel blockers (eg, verapamil), or digoxin because the risk of slow or irregular heartbeat may be increased


• Tricyclic antidepressants (eg, amitriptyline) because they may decrease Duraclon's effectiveness

This may not be a complete list of all interactions that may occur. Ask your health care provider if Duraclon may interact with other medicines that you take. Check with your health care provider before you start, stop, or change the dose of any medicine.

How to use Duraclon:

Use Duraclon as directed by your doctor. Check the label on the medicine for exact dosing instructions.

• Duraclon is usually given by continuous epidural infusion devices at your doctor's office, hospital, or clinic. If you will be using Duraclon at home, a health care provider will teach you how to use it. Be sure you understand how to use Duraclon. Follow the procedures you are taught when you use a dose. Contact your health care provider if you have any questions.


• Do not use Duraclon if it contains particles, is cloudy or discolored, or if the vial is cracked or damaged.


• Do not suddenly stop taking Duraclon. You may have an increased risk of side effects. If you need to stop Duraclon, your doctor will gradually lower your dose. Contact your doctor right away if the medicine infusion is interrupted for any reason.


• Keep this product, as well as syringes and needles, out of the reach of children and pets. Do not reuse needles, syringes, or other materials. Ask your health care provider how to dispose of these materials after use. Follow all local rules for disposal.


• If you miss a dose of Duraclon, contact your doctor right away.

Ask your health care provider any questions you may have about how to use Duraclon.

Important safety information:

• Duraclon may cause drowsiness, dizziness, or light-headedness. These effects may be worse if you take it with alcohol or certain medicines. Use Duraclon with caution. Do not drive or perform other possibly unsafe tasks until you know how you react to it.


• Check with your doctor before you drink alcohol or use medicines that may cause drowsiness (eg, sleep aids, muscle relaxers) while you are using Duraclon; it may add to their effects. Ask your pharmacist if you have questions about which medicines may cause drowsiness.


• Duraclon may cause dizziness, light-headedness, or fainting; alcohol, hot weather, exercise, or fever may increase these effects. To prevent them, sit up or stand slowly, especially in the morning. Sit or lie down at the first sign of any of these effects.


• Do not suddenly stop taking Duraclon. Doing so may cause withdrawal symptoms like nervousness, irritability, or shakiness. You could also get a headache and high blood pressure. The risk of these effects may be greater if you have been taking high doses of Duraclon. The risk may also be greater if you are taking a beta-blocker (eg, atenolol). Rarely, very serious effects like increased blood pressure in the brain, stroke, and death have occurred in patients who have suddenly stopped using Duraclon. Discuss any questions or concerns with your doctor.


• Duraclon may cause low blood pressure. This effect has occurred most often within the first 4 days after starting Duraclon, although it may occur at any time while using Duraclon. The risk may be higher in women and in lower weight patients. Contact your doctor right away if you experience symptoms of low blood pressure (eg, fainting, light-headedness, severe or persistent dizziness).


• Tell your doctor or dentist that you take Duraclon before you receive any medical or dental care, emergency care, or surgery.


• Lab tests, including blood pressure, may be performed while you use Duraclon. These tests may be used to monitor your condition or check for side effects. Be sure to keep all doctor and lab appointments.


• Duraclon should be used with extreme caution in CHILDREN; use is limited to children old enough to tolerate placement and management of an epidural catheter.


• PREGNANCY and BREAST-FEEDING: If you become pregnant, contact your doctor. You will need to discuss the benefits and risks of using Duraclon while you are pregnant. Duraclon is found in breast milk. Do not breast-feed while using Duraclon.

If you stop taking Duraclon suddenly, you may have WITHDRAWAL symptoms. These may include nervousness, agitation, headache, tremor, and rapid increase in blood pressure.

Possible side effects of Duraclon:

All medicines may cause side effects, but many people have no, or minor, side effects. Check with your doctor if any of these most COMMON side effects persist or become bothersome:

Anxiety; confusion; constipation; dizziness; drowsiness; dry mouth; general weakness; nausea; ringing in the ears; sweating; tiredness; vomiting.

Seek medical attention right away if any of these SEVERE side effects occur:

Severe allergic reactions (rash; hives; itching; difficulty breathing; tightness in the chest; swelling of the mouth, face, lips, or tongue); chest pain; depression; fainting; fast, slow, or irregular heartbeat; fever, chills, or persistent sore throat; hallucinations; light-headedness; painful or difficult urination; severe or persistent dizziness; shortness of breath; slow or shallow breathing.

This is not a complete list of all side effects that may occur. If you have questions about side effects, contact your health care provider. Call your doctor for medical advice about side effects. To report side effects to the appropriate agency, please read the Guide to Reporting Problems to FDA.

Uses For Durasal

Salicylic acid is used to treat many skin disorders, such as acne, dandruff, psoriasis, seborrheic dermatitis of the skin and scalp, calluses, corns, common warts, and plantar warts, depending on the dosage form and strength of the preparation.

Some of these preparations are available only with your doctor's prescription.

Before Using Durasal

In deciding to use a medicine, the risks of taking the medicine must be weighed against the good it will do. This is a decision you and your doctor will make. For this medicine, the following should be considered:

Allergies

Tell your doctor if you have ever had any unusual or allergic reaction to this medicine or any other medicines. Also tell your health care professional if you have any other types of allergies, such as to foods, dyes, preservatives, or animals. For non-prescription products, read the label or package ingredients carefully.

Pediatric

Young children may be at increased risk of unwanted effects because of increased absorption of salicylic acid through the skin. Also, young children may be more likely to get skin irritation from salicylic acid. Salicylic acid should not be applied to large areas of the body, used for long periods of time, or used under occlusive dressing (air-tight covering, such as kitchen plastic wrap) in infants and children. Salicylic acid should not be used in children younger than 2 years of age.

Geriatric

Elderly people are more likely to have age-related blood vessel disease. This may increase the chance of problems during treatment with this medicine.

Breast Feeding

There are no adequate studies in women for determining infant risk when using this medication during breastfeeding. Weigh the potential benefits against the potential risks before taking this medication while breastfeeding.

Interactions with Medicines

Although certain medicines should not be used together at all, in other cases two different medicines may be used together even if an interaction might occur. In these cases, your doctor may want to change the dose, or other precautions may be necessary.

The following interactions have been selected on the basis of their potential significance and are not necessarily all-inclusive.
