Ultra Strength Phazyme contraindications

sponsored

Ultra Strength Phazyme should not be used whenever stimulation of gastrointestinal motility might be dangerous, e.g., in the presence of gastrointestinal hemorrhage, mechanical obstruction, or perforation.

Ultra Strength Phazyme is contraindicated in patients with pheochro-mocytoma because the drug may cause a hypertensive crisis, probably due to release of catecholamines from the tumor. Such hypertensive crises may be controlled by phen-tolamine.

Ultra Strength Phazyme is contraindicated in patients with known sensitivity or intolerance to the drug.

Ultra Strength Phazyme should not be used in epileptics or patients receiving other drugs which are likely to cause extrapyramidal reactions, since the frequency and severity of seizures or extrapyramidal reactions may be increased.
