2. What you need to know before you take Cleboril

Do not take Cleboril:

  • If you are allergic to clebopride or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6).
  • If you have bleeding, obstruction or perforation of the gastrointestinal tract, as stimulation of gastric motility may be harmful.
  • If you suffer from abnormal and involuntary movements (tardive dyskinesia) that appear in people being treated with a type of medicine called neuroleptics.
  • If you suffer from seizures (epilepsy).
  • If you suffer from Parkinson's disease or other extrapyramidal disorders (which cause alterations in muscle tone, posture, and appearance of involuntary movements).

Warnings and precautions

Consult your doctor or pharmacist before taking Cleboril:

  • If you have severe liver or kidney disease (severe hepatic or renal insufficiency), as it may increase the effect of this medicine.
  • If you have certain tumors, such as breast tumors or prolactin-secreting pituitary adenoma, because it may increase the level of a hormone called prolactin in the blood.

Children and adolescents

In children, adolescents, and elderly people, the use of higher doses than recommended may increase the possibility of extrapyramidal reactions (alterations in muscle tone, posture, and appearance of involuntary movements).

In newborns, cases of acquired methemoglobinemia (a blood disorder that affects its ability to transport oxygen) due to orthopramides (the group of medicines to which Cleboril belongs) have been described.

Other medicines and Cleboril

Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking, have recently taken, or might take any other medicines.

It is especially important that you inform your doctor if you are taking any of the following medicines:

  • Phenothiazines, butyrophenones, and other antidopaminergic agents (used to treat certain mental illnesses) as Cleboril may increase the effect of these medicines on the central nervous system.
  • Digoxin (used to treat heart diseases) and cimetidine (used in situations where it is necessary to decrease acid production by the stomach) as Cleboril decreases their effects.
  • Hypnotics (medicines that improve the onset and duration of sleep), anxiolytics (reduce anxiety), or narcotics (used to treat moderate or severe pain) as Cleboril may potentiate their sedative effects.
  • Anticholinergics (such as atropine, used to relieve stomach cramps or spasms, to treat Parkinson's disease, or to prevent travel sickness) or narcotic analgesics (opioids) because they neutralize the action of Cleboril on gastrointestinal motility.
  • MAOIs (used to treat depression), as their use with Cleboril may increase the risk of adverse effects.

Taking Cleboril with alcohol

Avoid taking alcohol while being treated with Cleboril, as it may potentiate its sedative effects.

Pregnancy and breastfeeding

If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, think you may be pregnant, or are planning to have a baby, ask your doctor or pharmacist for advice before taking this medicine.

There is not enough information on the use of this medicine in pregnant women or whether it is excreted in breast milk. For this reason, as a precautionary measure, it is preferable to avoid its use during pregnancy, especially during the first three months, and during breastfeeding.

Driving and using machines

During treatment with Cleboril, you should avoid situations that require a special state of alertness, such as driving vehicles or handling dangerous machinery.

Cleboril contains lactose and sodium

This medicine contains lactose. If your doctor has told you that you have an intolerance to some sugars, consult them before taking this medicine.

This medicine contains less than 1 mmol of sodium (23 mg) per tablet; it is essentially "sodium-free".

3. How to take Cleboril

The recommended dose in adults is 1 tablet (500 micrograms of clebopride) 3 times a day, before each meal.

If you take more Cleboril than you should

In case of overdose or accidental ingestion, consult your doctor or pharmacist immediately, or call the Toxicology Information Service, phone 91 5620420, indicating the medicine and the amount taken.
