- The ability to react may be impaired even when used as intended, especially in higher doses or in combination with alcohol. Pay particular attention if you are driving or operating machinery (including household machinery) that could cause injury.
- Sudden discontinuation may cause problems or discomfort. Treatment should therefore be stopped slowly, i.e. by gradually tapering off the dose. It is best to seek advice from your doctor or pharmacist.
- Take care if you are intolerant to lactose. If you have to follow a diabetic diet, you should take the sugar content into account.

This also applies to medicines that you buy yourself, use only occasionally or have been using for some time.
