Children

This medicine should not be administered to children under 16 years old, unless explicitly indicated by a doctor. The use of acetylsalicylic acid in children under 16 years old is related to the appearance of Reye's syndrome, a rare but serious disease.

Elderly

No dose reduction is necessary in elderly patients.

Use of Tromalyt 300 mg with other medications:

Inform your doctor or pharmacist if you are using or have recently used or may need to use another medication, including medications purchased without a prescription, homeopathic products, herbal remedies, and other health-related products, as it may be necessary to interrupt treatment or adjust the dose of one of them.

This is especially important in the case of:

• Medications used to prevent transplant rejection (cyclosporine and tacrolimus).
• High blood pressure (diuretics and ACE inhibitors).
• Cancer, rheumatoid arthritis (methotrexate).
• Other analgesics or non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (medications used to treat pain and/or muscle inflammation).
• Anticoagulants (medications used to "thin" the blood and prevent the formation of clots) such as warfarin.
• Medications used to treat gout (probenecid).
• Corticosteroids, as they may increase the risk of gastric bleeding
• Diuretics.
• Certain antidepressants, such as selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, as they increase the risk of bleeding.
• Certain medications for controlling high blood pressure.
• Medications to lower blood sugar levels
• Vancomycin, an antibiotic used in some infections).
• Interferon alpha.
• Lithium, used in some psychiatric diseases.
• Antacids.
• Digoxin, used in heart problems.
• Barbiturates, medications used as sedatives for sleep problems and to treat convulsions.
• Zidovudine, used in the treatment of HIV infections.
• Phenytoin and valproic acid, medications for epilepsy.

If administered together, metamizole (a substance to reduce pain and fever) may reduce the effect of acetylsalicylic acid on platelet aggregation (blood cells stick together and form a blood clot). Therefore, this combination should be used with caution in patients taking low doses of acetylsalicylic acid as a cardioprotector.

Interference with diagnostic tests:

If you are going to have any diagnostic tests (including blood tests, urine tests, etc.), inform your doctor that you are taking this medicine, as it may alter the results.

Taking Tromalyt 300 mg with food, drinks, and alcohol:

Take this medicine after meals or with some food and with sufficient liquid.

Pregnancy - last trimester

Do not take more than 100 mg per day if you are in the last three months of pregnancy, as it may harm the fetus or cause problems during delivery. It may cause kidney and heart problems in the fetus.

If taken for more than a few days from the 20th week of pregnancy, Tromalyt 300 mg may cause kidney problems in the fetus, which can lead to low levels of amniotic fluid surrounding the baby (oligohydramnios) or narrowing of a blood vessel (ductus arteriosus) in the baby's heart.

If you need treatment for more than a few days, your doctor may recommend additional checks.

It is excreted in breast milk, so its use is not recommended during the breastfeeding period due to the risk of adverse effects in the child.
