1. What is Ketotifen HASCO and what is it used for

Ketotifen HASCO, syrup is an antiallergic (antihistamine) medicine containing the active substance ketotifen. Its action involves inhibiting the release of allergic reaction mediators. It non-competitively blocks histamine H receptors, meaning that an increase in histamine concentration does not weaken the action of the medicine.
It inhibits the development of bronchial hyperreactivity, which manifests as a decrease in the frequency and severity of asthma attacks.
In the prevention of bronchial asthma, achieving full therapeutic effect may require treatment lasting several weeks.
Ketotifen HASCO is used in the prevention of bronchial asthma and in the symptomatic treatment of allergic rhinitis and allergic conjunctivitis (seasonal and perennial).
The medicine is not effective in interrupting a bronchial asthma attack.

2. Important information before taking Ketotifen HASCO

When not to take Ketotifen HASCO

  • If you are allergic to ketotifen or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6),
  • if you are taking oral antidiabetic medicines.

Warnings and precautions

  • In order to achieve full therapeutic effect of ketotifen in the prevention of bronchial asthma, treatment lasting several weeks may be necessary,
  • in the initial period of taking the medicine, do not stop taking other anti-asthmatic medicines, especially steroid preparations (systemic corticosteroids) and adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), due to the possibility of adrenal insufficiency; in such cases, the return to normal pituitary-adrenal response to stress may take up to a year,
  • when taking ketotifen, be cautious, especially in patients with a history of epilepsy, due to the possibility of seizures,
  • if it is necessary to discontinue Ketotifen HASCO, do so gradually, over a period of 2 to 4 weeks; be prepared for a relapse of asthma symptoms,
  • during treatment with Ketotifen HASCO, the results of allergy tests may be falsely negative, so discontinue the medicine for a few days (3-4) before performing these tests.

Ketotifen HASCO and other medicines

Tell your doctor or pharmacist about all medicines you are taking, or have recently taken, and about medicines you plan to take.
Ketotifen may enhance the effect of medicines that depress the activity of the central nervous system (sedatives, hypnotics) and antihistamines (e.g. some antiallergic medicines).
Concomitant use with oral antidiabetic medicines may cause a decrease in the number of platelets (see section "When not to take Ketotifen HASCO").
