Phenobarbital eliminates the excitation of the central nervous system.

The drug increases the clearance of the bronchi, dilates the vessels of the lungs and lowers the pressure in a small circle of circulation, stimulates the respiratory center, dilates the coronary vessels and increases the frequency and strength of the heart contractions, increases renal blood flow and has a moderate diuretic effect.Due to the presence of paracetamol in the formulation, Teofedrine-HВ® has antipyretic and analgesic effects.

It is not recommended to prescribe the drug to patients with diabetes mellitus, since ephedrine, used in doses exceeding therapeutic, increases the metabolism, thus leading to an increase in blood glucose levels.

Impact on the ability to drive vehicles and manage mechanisms

During the treatment period, care must be taken when driving vehicles and engaging in other potentially hazardous activities that require increased concentration and speed of psychomotor reactions.
The preparation contains strong components.
OVERDOSE

Symptoms of acute poisoning: nausea, vomiting, stomach pain, insomnia, epileptic seizures, impaired vision.

Ephedrine, used in high doses, leads to an increase in the level of glucose in the blood.
The lethal oral dose of ephedrine is 1 g.
An overdose caused by paracetamol (with the development of hepatonecrosis, an increase in the activity of hepatic transaminases and an increase in prothrombin time) is manifested after intake of more than 10-15 g of the latter and is hardly possible due to the presence of other active ingredients in the formulation.

Treatment: gastric lavage, artificial vomiting, symptomatic therapy.

DRUG INTERACTION

Beta-blockers (propranolol), indirect anticoagulants (acenocumarol, phenindione), carbamazepine, furosemide, cimetidine, verapamil, antibiotics (lincomycin, macrolides), fluoroquinolones (ciprofloxacin, norfloxacin), MAO inhibitors, hormonal contraceptives, GCS increase the concentration of theophylline in the blood and so may increase the risk of developing its side effects.

Extract krasavki weakens the effect of m-holinomimetikov and anticholinesterase funds.

Paracetamol increases the effect of anticoagulants.
The risk of hepatotoxic action of paracetamol increases with the simultaneous administration of barbiturates, phenytoin, carbamazepine, rifampicin, zidovudine and other inducers of microsomal liver enzymes.
With the combined use of ephedrine with MAO inhibitors, severe hypertensive crises may occur due to the suppression of the metabolism of these vasopressor substances.
Ephedrine weakens the effect of opioid analgesics and other agents that depress the central nervous system. With simultaneous use with nonselective beta-adrenoblockers, the bronchodilator effect of the drug decreases.
