The active substance of Ciclofalina is piracetam. Piracetam is a nootropic substance, without sedative or psycho-stimulant effects, indicated for the treatment of attention and memory disorders, difficulties in daily activity and adaptation to the environment, which accompany states of mental deterioration due to a degenerative brain disease related to age.

It is also indicated for the treatment of cortical myoclonus.

  • If you have a cerebral hemorrhage.
  • If you have terminal renal insufficiency.

Warnings and precautions

Consult your doctor or pharmacist before taking this medicine.

  • If you have kidney problems, a smaller dose will be administered according to the severity of the kidney problems; the dose to be taken will be indicated by your doctor.
  • Abrupt withdrawal of treatment should be avoided in myoclonic patients, as it may cause a myoclonic or generalized crisis.

Taking Ciclofalina with other medicines

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

Only one case has been described in which piracetam and thyroid hormone extracts (T3 and T4) taken at the same time have led to confusion, irritability, and sleep disorders.

To date, no further interactions with other medicines have been detected.

Taking Ciclofalina with food, drink, and alcohol

The tablets should be taken with the help of a liquid. This medicine can be taken with or without food.

Pregnancy, breastfeeding, and fertility

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

Pregnancy

Although no adverse effects have been described in animal studies, this medicine should be avoided during pregnancy. If you take piracetam accidentally, it is not expected to affect the fetus.

Breastfeeding

The use of this medicine should be avoided during breastfeeding or breastfeeding should be discontinued during treatment.

Driving and using machines

Considering the possible side effects observed with piracetam, it is possible that they may affect the ability to drive and use machinery, which should be taken into account.

Elderly patients

In elderly patients, it is recommended to visit the doctor regularly so that they can indicate the correct dose.

Ciclofalina contains sucrose and tartrazine (E-102)

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

It also contains tartrazine (E-102) as an excipient, which may cause allergic reactions. It can cause asthma, especially in patients allergic to acetylsalicylic acid.

3. How to take Ciclofalina

Follow exactly the administration instructions of this medicine indicated by your doctor. In case of doubt, consult your doctor or pharmacist again.

The recommended dose is:

For the symptomatic treatment of mental deterioration states:

Start treatment by administering 6 sachets per day (4.8 g of piracetam) for the first few weeks, and continue treatment with 3 sachets per day (2.4 g of piracetam).

The daily dose will be administered in 2 or 3 doses.

For the treatment of cortical myoclonus:

Start treatment with 9 sachets per day (7.2 g of piracetam) and gradually increase the dose by 4.8 g of piracetam (6 sachets) per day, every 3-4 days, until a satisfactory response is obtained or up to a maximum of 30 sachets per day (24 g of piracetam).

The daily dose will be administered in 2 or 3 doses, maintaining the other antimioclonic treatments with their posology. Then, depending on the clinical response obtained, the dose of the other antimioclonic medicines will be reduced, if possible.

Once treatment with this medicine has been started, it should be maintained for as long as the original cerebral pathology persists. However, every 6 months, an attempt should be made to decrease or discontinue treatment.

Note: Patients with kidney problems should take a lower dose (see "Warnings and precautions").

The duration of treatment depends on the type, duration, and course of the symptoms.

If you think that the effect of this medicine is too strong or too weak, consult your doctor or pharmacist.

Instructions for the correct administration of the preparation

The powder from the sachets is poured into a glass of water and shaken to obtain its dissolution.

If you take more Ciclofalina than you should

In case of overdose or accidental ingestion, consult your doctor or pharmacist immediately, or call the Toxicology Information Service, phone 91 562 04 20, indicating the medicine and the amount ingested.

Do not take a double dose to make up for forgotten doses. Continue taking your normal dose when it is due.

If you stop taking Ciclofalina
