INSTRUCTION FOR THE SPECIALIST.
Description of the drug approved by the manufacturer for the printed edition of 2014.
PHARMACHOLOGIC EFFECT
Antipsychotic drug (antipsychotic). Has antihistaminic, spasmolytic, serotonin blocking, moderate alpha-adrenoblocking, antiemetic, hypnotic, sedative and antitussive.
The antipsychotic effect is due to the blockade of dopamine D 2 receptors in the mesolimbic and mesocortical systems. Has a low antipsychotic activity, therefore, in acute psychotic conditions is ineffective.
Sedative action is due to blockade of adrenoreceptors of the reticular formation of the brain stem.
Antiemetic effect is due to blockade of dopamine D 2 receptors in the trigger zone of the vomiting center.
Hypothermic action is due to blockade of dopamine receptors of the hypothalamus.
Due to its good tolerability it is used in children's, adolescent and gerontological practice.

From the sense organs: blurred vision (paresis of accommodation), noise or ringing in the ears.
From the cardiovascular system: dizziness, lowering blood pressure, tachycardia.
From the digestive system: dry mouth, atony GASTROINTESTINAL TRACT, constipation, loss of appetite.
On the part of the respiratory system: dryness in the nose, pharynx, increase in the viscosity of bronchial secretions.
From the urinary system: atony of the bladder, urine retention.
Other: allergic reactions, oppression of bone marrow hematopoiesis, increased sweating, muscle relaxation, photosensitivity.
Usually the drug is tolerated well by patients. Side effects are rare and are negligible.

APPLICATION FOR FUNCTIONS OF THE LIVER
Contraindicated use of the drug in severe kidney disease.
APPLICATION FOR VIOLATIONS OF THE FUNCTION OF KIDNEYS
Contraindicated use of the drug in severe liver disease. With prolonged treatment should be systematically evaluated liver function.

DRUG INTERACTION
Alimamazin increases the effect of opioid analgesics, hypnotics, anxiolytic (tranquilizers) and antipsychotic (antipsychotics) drugs, as well as medicines for general anesthesia, m-holinoblokatorov and hypotensive drugs. Alimazine dose should be adjusted with simultaneous use with the above medicines.
With the simultaneous use of alimamazine with derivatives of amphetamine, m-cholinomimetics, ephedrine, guanethidine, levodopa, dopamine, the effect of the latter is weakened.
With simultaneous use of alimamazine with ethanol and CNS suppressing drugs, CNS depression is observed.
With the simultaneous use of alimamazine with antiepileptic drugs and barbiturates, the threshold of convulsive readiness decreases (a dose adjustment is required).
With the simultaneous use of alimamazine with beta-adrenoblockers, the concentration of the latter in the plasma increases (possibly a marked decrease in blood pressure, arrhythmias).
With the simultaneous use of alimamazine with bromocriptine, the effect of the latter decreases and the concentration of prolactin in the blood serum increases.
With the simultaneous use of alimamazine with tricyclic antidepressants and anticholinergic drugs, the m-cholinoblocking activity of alimamazine increases.
With simultaneous use of alimamazine with MAO inhibitors and phenothiazine derivatives, the risk of arterial hypertension and extrapyramidal disorders increases (simultaneous use is not recommended).
With the simultaneous use of alimamazine with drugs that inhibit bone marrow hematopoiesis, the risk of myelosuppression increases.
With the simultaneous use of alimamazine with hepatotoxic drugs, manifestations of hepatotoxicity of the drug are intensified.
