What is the most important information I should know about Beclomethasone dipropionate (Candibiotic Ear Drops)?

• Beclomethasone dipropionate (Candibiotic Ear Drops) will not stop an asthma attack once one has started. Be sure to carry a rescue inhaler (eg, albuterol) with you at all times to treat any breathing problems that may occur between doses of Beclomethasone dipropionate (Candibiotic Ear Drops) (eg, severe or sudden onset of wheezing or shortness of breath). If you have any questions about which medicines stop asthma attacks, check with your doctor or pharmacist.
• Tell your doctor at once if you notice that your rescue inhaler does not work as well, if you need to use it often (eg, 4 or more times a day for more than 2 days in a row; more than 1 canister in 8 weeks), or if you have a decrease in your peak flow meter results.
• Beclomethasone dipropionate (Candibiotic Ear Drops) can cause severe breathing problems right after you use a dose. Sometimes, this can be life-threatening. If this happens, use a rescue inhaler and seek medical care at once. Do not use any more doses of Beclomethasone dipropionate (Candibiotic Ear Drops) unless instructed by your doctor.

Side effects of Chloramphenicol (Candibiotic Ear Drops) in details

1. Blood Dyscrasias

The most serious adverse effect of Chloramphenicol (Candibiotic Ear Drops) is bone marrow depression. Serious and fatal blood dyscrasias (aplastic anemia, hypoplastic anemia, thrombocytopenia, and granulocytopenia) are known to occur after the administration of Chloramphenicol (Candibiotic Ear Drops). An irreversible type of marrow depression leading to aplastic anemia with a high rate of mortality is characterized by the appearance weeks or months after therapy of bone marrow aplastic or hypoplasia. Peripherally, pancytopenia is most often observed, but in a small number of cases only one or two of the three major cell types (erythrocytes, leukocytes, platelets) may be depressed.

A reversible type of bone marrow depression, which is dose related, may occur. This type of marrow depression is characterized by vacuolization of the erythroid cells, reduction of reticulocytes and leukopenia, and responds promptly to the withdrawal of Chloramphenicol (Candibiotic Ear Drops).

An exact determination of the risk of serious and fatal blood dyscrasias is not possible because of lack of accurate information regarding 1) the size of the population at risk, 2) the total number of drug-associated dyscrasias, and 3) the total number of non-drug associated dyscrasias.

In a report to the California State Assembly by the California Medical Association and the State Department of Public Health in January 1967, the risk of fatal aplastic anemia was estimated at 1:24,200 to 1:40,500 based on two dosage levels.

There have been reports of aplastic anemia attributed to Chloramphenicol (Candibiotic Ear Drops) which later terminated in leukemia.

Paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria has been reported.

2. Gastrointestinal Reactions

Nausea, vomiting, glossitis and stomatitis, diarrhea and enterocolitis may occur in low incidence.

3. Neurotoxic Reactions

Headache, mild depression, mental confusion, and delirium have been described in patients receiving Chloramphenicol (Candibiotic Ear Drops). Optic and peripheral neuritis have been reported, usually following long-term therapy. If this occurs, the drug should be promptly withdrawn.

4. Hypersensitivity Reactions

Fever, macular and vesicular rashes, angioedema, urticaria, and anaphylaxis may occur. Herxheimer’s reactions have occurred during therapy for typhoid fever.

5. "Gray Syndrome"

Toxic reactions including fatalities have occurred in the premature and neonate; the signs and symptoms associated with these reactions have been referred to as the “gray syndrome.” One case of gray syndrome has been reported in a neonate born to a mother having received Chloramphenicol (Candibiotic Ear Drops) during labor. One case has been reported in a 3-month-old infant. The following summarizes the clinical and laboratory studies that have been made on these patients:

a) In most cases therapy with Chloramphenicol (Candibiotic Ear Drops) had been instituted within the first 48 hours of life.

b) Symptoms first appeared after 3 to 4 days of continued treatment with high doses of Chloramphenicol (Candibiotic Ear Drops).

c) The symptoms appeared in the following order:

(1) abdominal distension with or without emesis;

(2) progressive pallid cyanosis;

(3) vasomotor collapse, frequently accompanied by irregular respiration;

(4) death within a few hours of onset of these symptoms.

d) The progression of symptoms from onset to exitus was accelerated with higher dose schedules.

e)Preliminary blood serum level studies revealed unusually high concentrations of Chloramphenicol (Candibiotic Ear Drops) (over 90 mcg/mL after repeated doses).

f) Termination of therapy upon early evidence of the associated symptomatology frequently reversed the process with complete recovery.

What is the most important information I should know about Chloramphenicol (Candibiotic Ear Drops)?

• Chloramphenicol (Candibiotic Ear Drops) is effective only against bacteria. It is not effective for treating viral infections (eg, the common cold).

• Long-term or repeated use of Chloramphenicol (Candibiotic Ear Drops) may cause a second infection. Your doctor may want to change your medicine to treat the second infection. Contact your doctor if signs of a second infection occur.
• If symptoms of "gray syndrome" (swelling of the abdomen, pale or blue skin color, vomiting, shock, difficulty breathing, refusal to suck, loose green stools, limp muscles, low temperature) occur in a newborn or infant, contact your doctor. Death may occur within hours of the onset of symptoms. Stopping use of Chloramphenicol (Candibiotic Ear Drops) when symptoms first appear increases the chance for a complete recovery.
• Chloramphenicol (Candibiotic Ear Drops) may lower your body's ability to fight infection. Prevent infection by avoiding contact with people with colds or other infections. Notify your doctor of any signs of infection, including fever, sore throat, rash, or chills.

• PREGNANCY and BREAST-FEEDING: If you become pregnant while taking Chloramphenicol (Candibiotic Ear Drops), discuss with your doctor the benefits and risks of using Chloramphenicol (Candibiotic Ear Drops) during pregnancy.
