What every

  1. should know: Prolonged uncontrolled intake of the drug at a higher than prescribed dose may lead to addiction due to addiction to phenobarbital and chronic bromine poisoning-bromism. Bromine, isolated from ethyl bromizovalerianate, accumulates in the body, gradually causing intoxication.

    Manifestations of bromism: gastrointestinal disturbances, bronchitis, rhinitis, conjunctivitis, acne, apathy, confusion, depression, speech and sleep disorders, memory impairment and other neurological disorders.
  2. With abrupt discontinuation of the use of drops after their continued use, the withdrawal symptoms develop abstinence syndrome.
  3. The drug is not compatible with alcohol, which increases its effect and increases toxicity.

  5. Do not take drops before driving a car, because they cause slight inhibition, a decrease in the speed of psychomotor reactions.
