Warnings and precautions

Consult your doctor or pharmacist before starting to take Bactil Flas 10 mg:

Children

Bactil Flas 10 mg should not be administered to children under 12 years of age.

Taking Bactil Flas 10 mg with other medicines

Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking, have recently taken, or may need to take any other medicine.

Especially if you are being treated with any of the medicines mentioned below, as it may be necessary to change the dose or interrupt treatment with one of them:

  • medicines used to treat allergies (antihistamines) because Bactil Flas 10 mg may increase their effect.
  • ketoconazole and itraconazole, used to treat fungal infections, or with erythromycin, an antibiotic used to treat certain infections, as they may cause an alteration in your electrocardiogram.
  • rifampicin, used to treat tuberculosis, as it may decrease the antihistamine effect of Bactil Flas 10 mg.

Interference with diagnostic tests

Bactil Flas 10 mg may interfere with the results of skin allergy tests, so it is recommended not to perform them until 5-7 days after stopping treatment.

Taking Bactil Flas 10 mg with food and drinks
