Discuss your symptoms and treatment with a doctor online.

2. What you need to know before taking Periactin

Do not take Periactin

  • If you are allergic to ciproheptadine hydrochloride 1.5 hydrate or to any of the other components of this medication (listed in section 6).
  • If you are allergic to drugs with a similar chemical structure to ciproheptadine (piperidines, such as donepezil) or to other antihistamines.
  • If you have narrow-angle glaucoma
  • If you are having an acute asthma attack
  • If you have intestinal ulcers that lead to narrowing of the stomach, small intestine, or esophagus (peptic ulcer stenosis)
  • If you have an enlarged prostate (prostatic hypertrophy)
  • If you have an obstruction of the neck of the bladder or an obstruction of the valve that connects the stomach to the duodenum (pyloroduodenal obstruction)

  • If you are breastfeeding (see "Pregnancy and lactation")
  • Do not give this medication to a newborn or premature baby
  • If you are elderly or in poor health, as you are more prone to experiencing drowsiness and low blood pressure with this medication.

Warnings and precautions

Consult your doctor or pharmacist before starting to take this medication:

  • If you have a severe respiratory disease.
  • If you have porphyria (a rare, usually inherited disorder in which a large amount of porphyrin is eliminated in feces and urine)
  • If you have a disease in which there is an abnormal increase in thyroid gland activity (hyperthyroidism), high intraocular pressure, heart disease, or high blood pressure.
  • If you are using any medication that causes ear toxicity, as symptoms of those toxic effects, such as ringing in the ears, dizziness, or vertigo, may be masked.
  • If you have any kidney disease or disorder

Antihistamines can decrease alertness; on the other hand, they can sometimes cause excitement, especially in young children.

Rarely, prolonged treatment with antihistamines can cause changes in blood cell counts.

Treatment with antihistamines can mask the toxic effects of medications that cause ear toxicity.

Children and adolescents

This medication should not be used in newborns or premature babies (see "Do not take Periactin").

This medication is not recommended for children under 2 years of age because its efficacy and safety have not been established in this population.

Given the high sensitivity of children to antihistamines, the dose of ciproheptadine should be established with special caution in this group.

Other medications and Periactin

Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are using, have recently used, or may need to use any other medication.

Tell your doctor if you are taking:

  • Monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs), such as moclobemide (used to treat depression) or selegiline, rasagiline (used to treat Parkinson's disease). These medications should not be taken at the same time as Periactin (see section 2 "Do not take Periactin").
  • Medications that induce sleep and medications that reduce the activity of the central nervous system (hypnotics, sedatives, tranquilizers, anxiolytics). This medication may increase their effects.
  • Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, such as fluoxetine, paroxetine, sertraline, citalopram, escitalopram (medications used for depression), as Periactin may cause a possible recurrence of depression and associated symptoms.

Taking Periactin with food, drinks, and alcohol

Alcohol consumption should be avoided during treatment. Alcohol increases the effects of this medication.

Interference with diagnostic tests

If you are going to have a pituitary function test, inform your doctor that you are taking this medication, as it may alter the result of the test.

This medication is contraindicated in breastfeeding mothers (see "Do not take Periactin"). It is unknown whether ciproheptadine passes into breast milk. Due to the possibility of serious side effects in infants, your doctor will decide with you whether to interrupt breastfeeding or treatment.
