Indicato per il trattamento delle ulcere (duodenale, gastrica e FANS indotta) e la profilassi per le ulcere da FANS indotta.

Misoprostol è una prostaglandina E1 (PGE1) analogico usato per il trattamento e la prevenzione delle ulcere gastriche. Quando somministrato, misoprostol stimola la secrezione del muco protettivo che le linee il tratto gastrointestinale e aumenta il flusso sanguigno delle mucose, aumentando così l'integrità della mucosa. A volte è co-prescritto con non-steroidei anti-infiammatori non steroidei (FANS) per evitare il verificarsi di ulcera gastrica, un effetto indesiderato comune del FANS.

Misoprostol è ampiamente assorbito.

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.
