1. What is ebastina cinfa and what is it used for
Ebastina belongs to a group of medications called antihistamines (antiallergics).
ebastina cinfa is indicated for the symptomatic treatment of allergic processes such as seasonal or perennial allergic rhinitis, with or without allergic conjunctivitis (such as nasal discharge, nasal itching, eye itching, tearing, sneezing), chronic urticaria, and allergic dermatitis.
2. What you need to know before taking ebastina cinfa
Do not take ebastina cinfa
If you are allergic to ebastina or any of the other components of this medication (listed in section 6).
Warnings and precautions
Consult your doctor or pharmacist before starting to take ebastina cinfa.
This medication should be used with caution:
Do not use this medication if you have an acute allergic emergency, as ebastina (the active ingredient of this medication) takes 1 to 3 hours to take effect.
Children
Ebastina should not be administered to children under 12 years of age.
Other medications and ebastina cinfa
Inform your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking, have recently taken, or may need to take any other medication.
The following medications may interfere with ebastina; in these cases, it may be necessary to change the dose or interrupt treatment with one of them:
- Ebastina may increase the effect of other medications used to treat allergies (antihistamines).
- Ebastina should be used with caution in patients being treated with medications called ketoconazole and itraconazole, used to treat fungal infections, or with an antibiotic used to treat certain infections called erythromycin (as they may cause an alteration in your electrocardiogram).
- The antihistamine effect of ebastina may be reduced in patients being treated with a medication called rifampicin, used to treat tuberculosis.
No interactions have been described between ebastina and theophylline, warfarin, cimetidine, diazepam, and alcohol.
Interference with diagnostic tests
Ebastina may interfere with the results of skin allergy tests, so it is recommended not to perform them until 5-7 days after treatment has been discontinued.
Taking ebastina cinfa with food and drinks
The tablets can be taken with or without food.
Pregnancy and breastfeeding
If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, think you may be pregnant, or plan to become pregnant, consult your doctor or pharmacist before using this medication.
Pregnancy
There is no experience in pregnant women, so it is recommended to consult a doctor before taking ebastina. The doctor will decide whether to start treatment or not.
Breastfeeding
It is unknown whether the medication passes into breast milk, so it should not be used during breastfeeding.
Driving and using machines
No effects have been observed on psychomotor function or the ability to drive or use machines at the recommended therapeutic doses. However, since drowsiness and dizziness are among the side effects, observe your response to the medication before driving or using machines.
