Warnings and Precautions
Consult your doctor before starting to take Enanplus:
-if you are allergic or have had allergic reactions in the past;
-if you have kidney, liver, or heart diseases (hypertension and/or heart failure), as well as fluid retention or have had these diseases in the past;
-if you are taking diuretics (substances that increase urine production);
-if you have heart problems, a history of strokes, or think you may be at risk for these conditions (e.g., if you have high blood pressure, diabetes, high cholesterol, or are a smoker) consult this treatment with your doctor. Medications like this may be associated with a small increase in the risk of heart attacks or strokes. Any risk is more likely to occur when using high doses and prolonged treatments. Do not exceed the recommended dose or treatment duration;
-if you are an elderly patient: you may experience a higher incidence of adverse effects (see section 4). If these occur, consult your doctor immediately;
-if you are a woman with fertility problems: this medication may affect your fertility, so do not take it if you are planning to become pregnant or are undergoing fertility studies;
-if you have a disorder that affects blood and blood cell production;
-if you have systemic lupus erythematosus or mixed connective tissue disease (autoimmune diseases that affect connective tissue);
-if you have had past chronic inflammatory bowel disease (ulcerative colitis, Crohn's disease);
-if you have chronic gastrointestinal or intestinal disorders;
-if you have an infection; see the "Infections" heading below;
-if you are taking other medications that increase the risk of peptic ulcers or bleeding, such as corticosteroids, certain antidepressants (SSRIs), blood thinners like acetylsalicylic acid, or anticoagulants like warfarin. In these cases, consult your doctor before taking this medication: your doctor may prescribe an additional medication to protect your stomach;
-if you have depression and are taking antidepressants, as some may interact with tramadol (see "Other medications and Enanplus");
-if you are taking other medications that contain the same active ingredients as this medication, do not exceed the maximum daily dose of dexketoprofen or tramadol;
-if you think you have addiction to other analgesics (opioids);
-if you have altered consciousness (feel like you are going to faint);
-if you are in shock (a sign of this state may be cold sweat);
-if you have increased intracranial pressure (possibly after a head injury or brain disease);
-if you have difficulty breathing;
-if you have porphyria.
Tramadol may cause physical and psychological addiction. When tramadol is taken for a prolonged period, its effect may decrease, requiring higher doses (development of tolerance). In patients with a tendency to abuse medications or those with medication dependence, Enanplus treatment should only be carried out for short periods of time and under strict medical supervision.
Inform your doctor if any of these problems occur during Enanplus treatment or if they occurred in the past.
Talk to your doctor if you experience any of the following symptoms while taking Enanplus: extreme fatigue, loss of appetite, severe abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, or low blood pressure. This may indicate that you have adrenal insufficiency (low cortisol levels). If you experience any of these symptoms, inform your doctor, and they will decide if you should take a hormonal supplement.
Tramadol is metabolized in the liver by an enzyme. Some people have a variation of this enzyme, and this may affect each person differently. In some people, it may be difficult to achieve sufficient pain relief, while others may be more likely to experience severe adverse effects. If you notice any of the following adverse effects, stop taking this medication and consult a doctor immediately: slow or shallow breathing, confusion, drowsiness, constricted pupils, general discomfort, or vomiting, constipation, loss of appetite.
There is a weak risk that you may experience a serotonin syndrome that can occur after taking tramadol in combination with certain antidepressants or tramadol alone. Consult your doctor immediately if you experience any of the symptoms associated with this severe syndrome (see section 4 "Possible adverse effects").
Respiratory disorders related to sleep
Enanplus may cause respiratory disorders related to sleep, such as central sleep apnea (pause in breathing during sleep) and sleep-related hypoxemia (low oxygen levels in the blood). These symptoms may include pauses in breathing during sleep, nocturnal awakenings due to difficulty breathing, difficulty maintaining sleep, or excessive daytime somnolence. If you or someone else observes these symptoms, consult your doctor. Your doctor may consider reducing the dose.
Infections
Enanplus may mask the signs of an infection, such as pain. Therefore, Enanplus may delay the appropriate treatment of the infection, increasing the risk of complications. This has been observed in pneumonia caused by bacteria and skin infections related to varicella. If you take this medication while having an infection and the infection symptoms persist or worsen, consult a doctor without delay.
Avoid using this medication during varicella.
Children and adolescents
This medication has not been studied in children or adolescents. Therefore, safety and efficacy have not been established, and the medication should not be used in children or adolescents.
Use in children with respiratory problems
Do not recommend the use of tramadol in children with respiratory problems, as the symptoms of tramadol toxicity may worsen in these children.
Enanplus use with other medications
Inform your doctor if you are using, have used recently, or may need to use any other medication, including those purchased without a prescription. There are some medications that should not be taken together, and others that may require dose adjustment if taken together.

Therefore, concomitant use should only be considered when other treatment options are not possible. However, if your doctor prescribes Enanplus along with sedatives, the dose and duration of concomitant treatment should be limited. Inform your doctor about all sedatives you are taking and follow your doctor's recommended dose carefully.
