1. What is Ebastina Forte Cinfalab and what is it used for

Ebastina belongs to a group of medicines called antihistamines (anti-allergics).

Ebastina is indicated for the relief of allergic rhinoconjunctivitis (sneezing, nasal itching, nasal discharge, nasal congestion, and red and watery eyes) and urticaria (hives) that occur with mild symptoms in adults and adolescents from 12 years of age, when a dose of 10 mg is not sufficient.

You should consult a doctor if it worsens or does not improve after 7 days.

Doctor consultation

2. What you need to know before taking Ebastina Forte Cinfalab

Do not take Ebastina Forte Cinfalab

If you are allergic to ebastina or any of the other components of this medicine (listed in section 6).

Warnings and Precautions

Consult your doctor or pharmacist before starting to take ebastina:

  • if your electrocardiogram results are altered.
  • if you have high potassium levels in your blood.
  • if you suffer from severe liver disease (see "How to take Ebastina Forte Cinfalab" section).
  • if you are being treated with a type of medicine used to treat fungal infections called azole antifungals or with medicines used to treat certain infections called macrolide antibiotics (see "Other Medicines and Ebastina Forte Cinfalab" section).
  • if you are being treated with rifampicin, a type of medicine used to treat tuberculosis.

Do not use this medicine if you have an acute allergic emergency, as ebastina (the active ingredient of this medicine) takes 1 to 3 hours to take effect.

In case you experience symptoms such as throat tightness, difficulty breathing, hoarseness, or difficulty speaking, wheezing, low blood pressure, repeated vomiting, and/or loss of consciousness, you should seek urgent medical attention due to the risk of anaphylaxis.

Children

Ebastina should not be administered to children under 12 years of age.

Other Medicines and Ebastina Forte Cinfalab

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 ebastina may increase their effect.
  • ketoconazole and itraconazole, used to treat fungal infections, or 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 ebastina.

Interference with Diagnostic Tests

Ebastina may interfere with the results of skin allergy tests, so it is recommended not to perform them until 5-7 days after treatment is discontinued.

Taking Ebastina Forte Cinfalab with Food and Drinks

Taking the medicine with food or drinks does not affect its efficacy.

Pregnancy and Breastfeeding

If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, think you may be pregnant, or plan to become pregnant, consult your doctor or pharmacist before using this medicine.

Pregnancy

There is limited data on the use of the medicine in pregnant women. As a precautionary measure, it is preferable to avoid the use of ebastina during pregnancy.

Breastfeeding

It is unknown whether the medicine passes into breast milk, so it should not be used during breastfeeding.

Driving and Using Machines

No effects on psychomotor function or the ability to drive or use machinery have been observed at the recommended therapeutic doses. However, since somnolence and dizziness are among the side effects, observe your response to the medication before driving or using machinery.
