Contents of the pack and further information

1. What is Nemea and what is it used for

The active substance of Nemea is clozapine, which belongs to a group of medications called antipsychotics (also known as neuroleptics, used to treat specific mental disorders such as psychosis).

Clozapine is used to treat patients with schizophrenia when other medications have not worked. Schizophrenia is a mental illness that involves disorders of thought, emotional reactions, and behavioral disorders. You can only use this medication if you have already tried at least two other antipsychotic medications, including one of the new atypical antipsychotics for treating schizophrenia, and these medications have not responded or have caused severe side effects that cannot be treated.

Clozapine is also indicated for treating severe thought disorders, emotional reactions, and behavioral disorders that occur in Parkinson's disease, when other medications have not been effective.

2. What you need to know before taking Nemea

Follow your doctor's instructions carefully.

Do not take Nemea

• if you are allergic to clozapine or any of the other components of this medication (listed in section 6).
• if it will not be possible to perform periodic blood tests on you.
• if you have ever been told that you have a low white blood cell count (e.g., leucopenia or agranulocitosis), especially if it was caused by other medications. This does not apply if you had a low white blood cell count caused by previous chemotherapy.
• if you previously had to stop using Nemea because it caused you severe side effects (e.g., agranulocitosis or heart problems).
• if you are being or have been treated with long-acting depot injections of antipsychotics.
• if you have or have had any bone marrow disease.
• if you have uncontrolled epilepsy (seizures or attacks).
• if you have had severe mental disorders caused by alcohol or other medications (e.g., narcotics).
• if you have episodes of loss of consciousness and strong drowsiness that is difficult to control.
• if you have circulatory collapse that can occur as a result of severe shock.
• if you have severe kidney disease.
• if you have myocarditis (inflammation of the heart muscle).
• if you have any other severe heart disease.
• if you have symptoms or active liver disease such as jaundice (yellowing of the skin and eyes, feeling unwell, and loss of appetite).
• if you have severe liver disease.
• if you have paralytic ileus (intestinal obstruction, your intestine does not function properly, and you have severe constipation).
• if you use any medication that prevents your bone marrow from functioning properly.
• if you use any medication that reduces the number of white blood cells in your blood.

Tell your doctor and do not take Nemea if any of the above circumstances apply to you. Nemea should not be administered to anyone who is unconscious or in a coma.

Warnings and Precautions

The safety measures mentioned in this section are very important. You must comply with them to minimize the risk of severe side effects that can be life-threatening.

Before starting treatment with Nemea, tell your doctor if you have or have had any of the following circumstances:

• blood clots or a family history of blood clots, as this type of medication has been associated with the formation of blood clots.
• glaucoma (high eye pressure).
• diabetes. In patients with or without a medical history of diabetes mellitus (see section 4), high blood sugar levels have been reported (sometimes considerably).
• prostate problems or difficulty urinating.
• any heart, kidney, or liver disease.
• chronic constipation or taking medications that cause constipation (such as anticholinergics).
• galactose intolerance, total lactase deficiency, or glucose-galactose malabsorption.
• controlled epilepsy.
• large intestine diseases.
• abdominal surgery.
• a heart condition or family history of abnormal heart conduction called "prolonged QT interval".
• risk of stroke, for example, if you have very high blood pressure, cardiovascular problems, or problems in the blood vessels of the brain.

Immediately before taking the next dose of Nemea tablets, inform your doctor if:

• you have signs of a cold, fever, flu-like symptoms, sore throat, or any other infection. You should have an urgent blood test to see if these symptoms are related to the medication.
• you have a sudden increase in body temperature, muscle stiffness that can lead to altered consciousness (neuroleptic malignant syndrome), as it may be a severe side effect that requires immediate treatment.
• you have a rapid and irregular heartbeat, even when resting, palpitations, breathing problems, chest pain, or unusual fatigue. Your doctor should perform a heart check and, if necessary, refer you immediately to a cardiologist.
• you have nausea (feeling of dizziness), vomiting (feeling dizzy), and/or loss of appetite. Your doctor should examine your liver.
• you have severe constipation. Your doctor should treat you to avoid other complications.
• you experience constipation, abdominal pain, abdominal sensitivity, fever, abdominal distension, and/or bloody diarrhea. Your doctor will need to examine you.

Medical Exams and Blood Tests

Before starting treatment with Nemea, your doctor will ask you about your medical history and perform a blood test to ensure that your white blood cell count is normal. It is essential to know this, as you need white blood cells to fight infections.

Make sure you have regular blood tests before, during, and after finishing treatment with Nemea.

• Your doctor will inform you exactly when and where these tests will be performed. You can only take Nemea if you have a normal blood count.
• Nemea can cause a severe decrease in white blood cells in your blood (agranulocitosis). Only with regular blood tests can your doctor know if you are at risk of developing agranulocitosis.
• This test should be performed weekly during the first 18 weeks of treatment with Nemea and then at least once a month.
• If there is a decrease in the number of white blood cells, you should stop treatment with Nemea immediately. Your white blood cells should return to normal values.
• Blood tests should be performed during 4 weeks after finishing treatment with Nemea.

Before starting treatment, your doctor will also perform a physical examination. Your doctor may perform an electrocardiogram (ECG) to check your heart, but only if it is necessary for you or if you have any special concerns.

If you have liver disorders, you will have periodic liver function tests throughout treatment with Nemea.

If you have high blood sugar levels (diabetes), your doctor may perform periodic checks of your blood sugar levels.

Nemea may alter your blood lipid levels. Nemea may cause weight gain. Your doctor may monitor your weight and lipid levels.

If you have a mild headache, dizziness, or weakness, or Nemea makes you feel this way, be careful when getting up from a sitting or lying position, as this can increase the risk of falls.

If you need to undergo surgery or if, for any reason, you cannot walk for a long period, discuss with your doctor that you are taking Nemea. You may be at risk of having a blood clot (thrombosis).

Children and Adolescents Under 16 Years

If you are under 16 years old, you should not take Nemea, as there is not enough information available for its use in this age group.

Use in Elderly Patients (60 Years and Older)

Patient over 60 years old may be more susceptible to the following side effects during treatment with Nemea: weakness or mild headache after changing position, dizziness, rapid heartbeat, urinary retention, and constipation.

Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you suffer from a disease called dementia.

Use of Nemea with Other Medications

Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking, have recently taken, or may take any other medication, including those obtained without a prescription or herbal treatments. You may need to take a different amount of your medications or different medications.

Do not take Nemea with other medications that prevent the proper functioning of the bone marrow and/or decrease the number of blood cells produced by the body, such as:

• carbamazepine, a medication used in epilepsy.
• certain antibiotics: chloramphenicol, sulfonamides such as cotrimoxazole.
• certain pain medications: analgesics of the pyrazolone group, such as phenylbutazone.
• penicillamine, a medication used to treat rheumatic joint inflammation.
• cytotoxic agents, medications used in chemotherapy.
• long-acting depot injections of antipsychotic medications.

These medications increase your risk of developing agranulocitosis (deficit of white blood cells in the blood).

Taking Nemea at the same time as other medications may affect the proper action of Nemea and/or the other medications. Inform your doctor if you intend to take, are taking (even if treatment is about to finish), or have recently stopped taking any of the following medications:

• medications used to treat depression, such as lithium, fluvoxamine, tricyclic antidepressants, MAO inhibitors, citalopram, paroxetine, fluoxetine, and sertraline.
• other antipsychotic medications used to treat mental illnesses, such as perazine.
• benzodiazepines and other medications used to treat anxiety or sleep disorders.
• narcotics and other medications that can affect your breathing.
• medications used to control epilepsy, such as phenytoin and valproic acid.
• medications used to treat high or low blood pressure, such as adrenaline and noradrenaline.
• warfarin, a medication used to prevent blood clotting.
• antihistamines, medications used for colds and allergies, such as hay fever (seasonal allergic rhinitis).
• anticholinergic medications, used to relieve stomach cramps, spasms, and dizziness.
• medications used to treat Parkinson's disease.
• digoxin, a medication used to treat heart problems.
• medications used to treat rapid or irregular heartbeat.
• some medications used to treat stomach ulcers, such as omeprazole or cimetidine.
• some antibiotics, such as erythromycin and rifampicin.
• some medications used to treat fungal (such as ketoconazole) or viral infections (such as protease inhibitors used to treat AIDS).
• atropine, a medication that may be used in some eye drops or in cough and cold preparations.
• adrenaline, a medication used in emergency situations.
• hormonal contraceptives (birth control pills).

This list is not complete. Your doctor and pharmacist have more information about medications that should be administered with caution or avoided while taking Nemea. They also know if the medications you are taking belong to any of the groups listed above. Discuss this with them.

Taking Nemea with Food and Drinks

During treatment with Nemea, do not drink alcohol.

Tell your doctor if you smoke and how often you consume beverages containing caffeine (coffee, tea, cola). Sudden changes in your smoking or caffeine consumption habits can also modify the effects of Nemea.

Pregnancy and Breastfeeding

If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, think you may be pregnant, or plan to become pregnant, consult your doctor before using this medication. Your doctor will discuss the benefits and possible risks of using this medication during pregnancy with you. Inform your doctor immediately if you become pregnant during treatment with Nemea.

The following symptoms may appear in newborn babies of mothers who have used Nemea in the last trimester (the last three months of pregnancy): tremors, muscle stiffness and/or weakness, drowsiness, agitation, breathing problems, and difficulty feeding. If your baby develops any of these symptoms, you should contact your doctor.

Some women who take certain medications for mental illnesses have irregular or absent menstrual periods. If this has happened to you, your menstrual period will return to normal when your medication is replaced with Nemea. This means you should use effective contraceptives.

During treatment with Nemea, you should not breastfeed your baby. Clozapine, the active substance of Nemea, can pass into breast milk and affect the baby.

Driving and Using Machines

Nemea can cause fatigue, drowsiness, and seizures, especially at the start of treatment. Therefore, you should avoid driving or operating machinery while you have these symptoms.

Nemea can cause symptoms such as drowsiness, dizziness, or vision changes, and reduce your reaction ability. These effects, as well as the disease itself, can impair your ability to drive vehicles or operate machinery. Therefore, do not drive, operate machinery, or engage in other activities that require special attention until your doctor assesses your response to this medication.

Nemea Contains Lactose

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

3. How to take Nemea

To minimize the risk of experiencing epileptic seizures, drowsiness, or hypotension, it is necessary for your doctor to gradually increase the dose. Follow your doctor's administration instructions for this medication exactly. If in doubt, consult your doctor or pharmacist again. It is essential that you do not change the dose or stop taking Clozapine without first asking your doctor. Continue taking Clozapine for the time your doctor has indicated.

If you are a patient over 60 years old, your doctor may start treatment with a lower dose and increase it more gradually, as you may be more susceptible to developing some unexpected adverse reactions. (See section 2 "What you need to know before taking Nemea").

If you cannot achieve the prescribed dose with this tablet presentation, other presentations of this medication are available to achieve the prescribed dose.

Treatment of schizophrenia

Treatment is started with 12.5 mg (half a 25 mg tablet) once or twice on the first day, followed by 25 mg once or twice on the second day. Swallow the tablet with the help of a glass of water. If you tolerate it well, your doctor will gradually increase the dose in amounts of 25 or 50 mg over 2 to 3 weeks until you reach a dose of 300 mg per day. It may be necessary to continue increasing the dose in amounts of 50 or 100 mg twice a week, or preferably once a week.

The normal daily dose of clozapine is between 200 and 450 mg, divided into several doses per day. Some people may need higher doses. Doses of up to 900 mg per day are allowed. At daily doses above 450 mg, adverse reactions may increase (particularly seizures). Always take the minimum dose that is effective for you. Most patients should take part of the dose in the morning and another part at night. Your doctor will tell you exactly how to divide your daily dose. If your daily dose does not exceed 200 mg, you can take it as a single dose at night. Once the treatment with clozapine is working well for some time, your doctor will try treatment with lower doses. You will need to take clozapine for at least 6 months.

Treatment of severe thought disorders in patients with Parkinson's disease

The normal initial dose of clozapine is 12.5 mg (half a 25 mg tablet) at night. Swallow the tablet with the help of a glass of water. Your doctor will slowly increase the dose in amounts of 12.5 mg, with a maximum of two increases per week, until you reach a maximum dose of up to 50 mg at the end of the second week. Dose increments should be stopped or postponed if you feel weak, dizzy, or confused. To avoid such symptoms, your blood pressure will be measured during the first weeks of treatment.

The effective daily dose is between 25 and 37.5 mg, taken as a single dose at night. The dose can only be increased to more than 50 mg per day in exceptional cases. The maximum dose is 100 mg per day. Always take the minimum dose that is effective for you.

If you take more Nemea than you should

If you think you have taken more Nemea than you should, or if someone has taken some of your tablets, inform your doctor or pharmacist immediately or call the Toxicology Information Service. Telephone 91 562 04 20, indicating the medication and the amount taken.

The symptoms of overdose are:

Drowsiness, fatigue, lack of energy, unconsciousness, coma, confusion, hallucinations, agitation, incoherent speech, numbness in the limbs, tremors in the hands, seizures, increased saliva production, dilated pupils, blurred vision, low blood pressure, collapse, rapid or irregular heartbeat, shallow or difficult breathing.

If you forget to take Nemea

If you forget to take a dose, take the missed dose as soon as possible. If it is almost time for the next dose, do not take the missed dose and take the next dose at the scheduled time. Do not take a double dose to make up for the missed dose. If you have stopped taking clozapine for two or more days, do not start treatment again without consulting your doctor first.

If you interrupt treatment with Nemea

Do not interrupt treatment with clozapine without asking your doctor, as you may experience withdrawal symptoms. These symptoms include sweating, headache, nausea (feeling dizzy), vomiting (being dizzy), and diarrhea. If you experience any of these symptoms, consult your doctor immediately.These symptoms can be followed by more severe ones unless you are treated immediately.Your initial symptoms may recur. If you need to interrupt treatment, it is recommended to gradually decrease the dose in amounts of 12.5 mg over a period of 1 to 2 weeks.

Your doctor will give you instructions on how to reduce your daily dose. If you need to interrupt your treatment suddenly, your doctor should examine you.

If your doctor decides to restart treatment with clozapine and your last dose of clozapine was two days or more ago, you should start again with the initial dose of 12.5 mg.

If you have any other doubts about the use of this medication, ask your doctor or pharmacist.

4. Possible side effects

Like all medications, this medication can cause side effects, although not everyone experiences them.

Some side effects can be serious and require immediate medical attention.Tell your doctor immediately before taking the next Nemea tablet if you experience any of the following circumstances:

Very common(affect more than 1 in 10 patients):

• Severe constipation. Your doctor should treat you to avoid other complications.
• Rapid heartbeat.

Common(affect up to 1 in 10 patients):

• Cold symptoms, fever, flu-like symptoms, sore throat, or any other infection. You will need to have an urgent blood test to check if the symptoms you have are related to your medication.
• Seizures.
• Sudden fainting or loss of consciousness with muscle weakness (syncope).

Uncommon(affect up to 1 in 100 patients):

• A sudden increase in your body temperature, muscle stiffness that can lead to altered consciousness (neuroleptic malignant syndrome), as it can be a serious side effect that requires immediate treatment.
• Mild headache, dizziness, or weakness when standing up from a sitting or lying position, as it can increase the risk of falls.

Rare(affect up to 1 in 1,000 patients):

• Signs of respiratory tract infection or pneumonia such as fever, cough, difficulty breathing, wheezing (noisy breathing).
• Burning pain in the upper abdomen that spreads to the back accompanied by nausea and vomiting due to pancreas inflammation.
• Fainting and muscle weakness due to a significant drop in blood pressure (circulatory collapse).
• Difficulty swallowing (which can cause food inhalation).
• Nausea (feeling sick), vomiting (being sick), and/or loss of appetite. Your doctor should examine your liver.
• Signs of obesity or increased obesity.
• Interruption in breathing with or without snoring during sleep.

Rare(affect up to 1 in 1,000 patients)or very rare(affect up to 1 in 10,000 patients):

• Rapid and irregular heartbeat, even at rest, palpitations, breathing problems, chest pain, or unusual fatigue. Your doctor should have your heart checked and, if necessary, immediately refer you to a cardiologist.

Very rare(affect up to 1 in 10,000 patients):

• Persistent and painful erections of the penis, if you are a man. This is called priapism. If you have an erection that lasts more than four hours, you may need immediate medical treatment to avoid additional complications.
• Spontaneous bleeding or bruising, which could be signs of a decrease in the number of platelets in the blood.
• Symptoms due to uncontrolled blood sugar levels (such as nausea or vomiting, abdominal pain, excessive thirst, frequent urination, disorientation, or confusion).
• Abdominal pain, cramps, bloated abdomen, vomiting, constipation, and lack of gas passage, which can be signs and symptoms of intestinal obstruction.
• Lack of appetite, bloated abdomen, abdominal pain, yellowing of the skin, severe weakness, and discomfort. These symptoms can be indicative of starting to develop liver disease that can progress to sudden liver necrosis.
• Nausea, vomiting, fatigue, weight loss, which can be symptoms of kidney inflammation.

Not known(frequency cannot be estimated from the available data):

• Crushing chest pain, feeling of pressure, tightness, or heaviness (chest pain may radiate to the left arm, jaw, neck, and upper abdomen), difficulty breathing, sweating, weakness, dizziness, nausea, vomiting, and palpitations (symptoms of a heart attack), which can cause death. Seek immediate emergency medical treatment.
• Pressure in the chest, heaviness, tightness, constriction, burning, or suffocation (signs of insufficient blood and oxygen flow to the heart), which can cause death. Your doctor should evaluate your heart function.
• Intermittent feeling in the chest of a "stabbing", "racing", or "agitated" nature (palpitations).
• Rapid and irregular heartbeats (atrial fibrillation). There may be occasional heart palpitations, fainting, difficulty breathing, or chest discomfort. Your doctor needs to check your heart.
• Symptoms of low blood pressure such as dizziness, fainting, blurred vision, unusual fatigue, cool and moist skin, or nausea.
• Signs of blood clots in the veins, especially in the legs (symptoms that include swelling, pain, and redness in the legs), which can move through the blood vessels to the lungs causing chest pain and difficulty breathing.
• Confirmed or suspected infection, accompanied by fever or low body temperature, rapid breathing, rapid heartbeat, altered reaction capacity and consciousness, decreased blood pressure (sepsis).
• Excessive sweating, headache, nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea (symptoms of cholinergic syndrome).
• Drastic decrease in urine production (signs of kidney failure).
• Allergic reaction (swelling mainly in the face, mouth, and throat, as well as on the tongue that can cause itching or be painful).
• Lack of appetite, bloated abdomen, abdominal pain, yellowing of the skin, severe weakness, and discomfort. This can be indicative of possible liver alterations that involve replacing normal liver tissue with scar tissue leading to loss of liver function, including those liver events that lead to life-threatening consequences such as liver failure (which can lead to death), liver damage (damage to liver cells, bile duct in the liver, or both), and liver transplant.
• Burning pain in the upper abdomen, particularly between meals, early in the morning, or after drinking acidic beverages; black, tarry stools or stools with blood; bloating, heartburn, nausea, or vomiting, early feeling of fullness (intestinal ulceration of the stomach and/or intestine), which can lead to death.
• Severe abdominal pain intensified by movement, nausea, vomiting, even vomiting blood (or liquid that looks like coffee grounds); the abdomen becomes rigid with sensitivity (rebound) that extends from the point of perforation throughout the abdomen; fever and/or chills (perforation of the stomach and/or intestine or intestinal rupture) that can lead to death.
• Constipation, abdominal pain, abdominal sensitivity, fever, bloating, diarrhea with blood. This can be a symptom of possible megacolon (expansion of the intestines) or intestinal ischemia/infarction/necrosis, which can lead to death. Your doctor needs to examine you.
• Appearance or increase of muscle weakness, muscle spasms, muscle pain. This can indicate a possible muscle disorder (rhabdomyolysis). Your doctor needs to examine you.
• Acute chest or abdominal pain with difficulty breathing with or without cough or fever.

During the use of Nemea, extremely intense and severe skin reactions, such as drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS), have been reported. The adverse skin reaction may appear as a rash with or without blisters. There can be skin irritation, edema, and fever, and symptoms similar to those of the flu.
