Indiqué pour le traitement de l'ulcère (duodénal, gastrique et AINS induite) et la prophylaxie des ulcères induits par les AINS.

Le misoprostol est une prostaglandine E1 (PGE1) analogique utilisé pour le traitement et la prévention des ulcères d'estomac. Lorsqu'il est administré, le misoprostol stimule la sécrétion accrue de mucus protectrice qui tapisse le tractus gastro-intestinal et augmente le flux sanguin muqueux, augmentant ainsi l'intégrité des muqueuses. Il est parfois co-prescription avec des non-stéroïdiens anti-inflammatoires non stéroïdiens (AINS) pour empêcher la survenance des ulcères gastriques, un effet indésirable fréquent de l'AINS.

Le misoprostol est largement absorbée.

Read this leaflet before taking Cytotec^® (misoprostol) and each time your prescription is renewed, because the leaflet may be changed.

Cytotec (misoprostol) is being prescribed by your doctor to decrease the chance of getting stomach ulcers related to the arthritis/ pain medication that you take.

Cytotec can cause miscarriage, often associated with potentially dangerous bleeding. This may result in hospitalization, surgery, infertility, or death. Do not take it if you are pregnant and do not become pregnant while taking this medicine.

If you become pregnant during Cytotec therapy, stop taking Cytotec and contact your physician immediately. Remember that even if you are on a means of birth control it is still possible to become pregnant. Should this occur, stop taking Cytotec and contact your physician immediately.

Cytotec may cause diarrhea, abdominal cramping, and/or nausea in some people. In most cases these problems develop during the first few weeks of therapy and stop after about a week. You can minimize possible diarrhea by making sure you take Cytotec with food.

Because these side effects are usually mild to moderate and usually go away in a matter of days, most patients can continue to take Cytotec. If you have prolonged difficulty (more than 8 days), or if you have severe diarrhea, cramping and/or nausea, call your doctor.

Take Cytotec only according to the directions given by your physician.

Do not give Cytotec to anyone else. It has been prescribed for your specific condition, may not be the correct treatment for another person, and would be dangerous if the other person were pregnant.

This information sheet does not cover all possible side effects of Cytotec. This patient information leaflet does not address the side effects of your arthritis/pain medication. See your doctor if you have questions.

Keep out of reach of children.
