Directions for Use

Shake the bottle well before each use. Use a measuring cup or spoon to take the exact amount prescribed by your doctor. Do not use a household spoon as it may not give an accurate dose. You can take this syrup with or without food. Take it at the same time each day for best results.

Quick Tips

  • Use a measuring spoon or cup for accurate dosing
  • Take at the same time each day for consistent effect
  • This is a preventive medicine, not for treating active asthma attacks
  • Regular use is important for best results

Dosage

Overdose

Taking too much may cause excessive drowsiness, tremor, fast heartbeat, or confusion. If you think you have taken too much of this medicine, contact your doctor immediately or visit the nearest hospital.

Missed a Dose

If you missed any dose of medicine, take it as soon as you remember. If it's time for your next dose, then skip the missed dose and continue with your regular dose schedule. Do not take a double dose of medicine to compensate for the missed one.

How does this medicine work?

Ketotifen works by stabilizing mast cells, which are immune cells that release histamine and other chemicals causing allergy and asthma symptoms. By preventing the release of these chemicals, the medicine reduces allergic reactions and decreases asthma flare-ups.

Interactions

Interactions with other medicines

Tell your doctor about all medicines you take. Do not take with anticoagulants (blood thinners) without medical supervision as ketotifen may reduce the blood's ability to clot. Inform your doctor if you take any other medicines, as some may interact with this syrup.

Interactions with food items

This syrup can be taken with or without food. If stomach upset occurs, take it with food or milk.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

This is a preventive medicine and may take 4 to 10 weeks of regular daily use to feel the full protective benefits. Do not stop taking it even if you do not notice immediate changes.
No, this is a preventive medicine and will not stop an active asthma attack. You must have a fast-acting rescue medicine such as an inhaler for immediate relief during an attack.
Some people experience increased appetite while taking this medicine, which may lead to weight gain. Maintaining a balanced diet and regular exercise can help manage this side effect.
