Always follow your doctor’s instructions. The usual adult dose is one 20 mg tablet three or four times daily. For children, the dosage is determined by weight and age; consult your pediatrician for specific guidelines.
Take tablets with a full glass of water. You can take them with or without food, but consistency is key. If you experience stomach upset, taking them with food may help.
Adults | 1 tablet (20mg) three or four times daily |
Children | Variable; determined by weight and age. Consult your pediatrician. |
If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember unless it’s almost time for your next dose. Never double up on doses. If you have questions about missed doses, consult your physician or pharmacist.
Immediately report any unusual side effects to your doctor. Common side effects may include dry mouth, constipation, blurred vision, or drowsiness. These usually subside as your body adjusts. Stop taking the medication and seek immediate medical attention if you experience severe allergic reactions, such as hives, swelling, or difficulty breathing.
Store tablets in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Keep them out of children’s reach.
