Campral Tablets 333MG, 168 Tablets

What Campral tablets are and what they are used for?

Campral tablets is a medicine which acts on the central nervous system (the brain and the spinal cord).
Campral helps people who are dependent on alcohol to abstain from drinking alcoholic drinks. Campral in
combination with counselling will help you not to drink alcohol. It does this by acting on the chemical
changes that have taken place in the brain during the years that you have been drinking alcohol. It does not prevent the harmful effects of continuous alcohol abuse.

Product Details

What you need to know before you take Campral tablets
Do not take Campral tablets:
• if you have had an allergic reaction, skin rash, swelling of the face, wheezing or difficulty
breathing after taking acamprosate (INN) calcium or any of the other ingredients of Campral (see
list of ingredients in section 6) in the past
• if you are pregnant or breast-feeding
• if you suffer from severe kidney disease
• if you suffer from severe liver disease
Warnings and precautions
Tell your doctor or pharmacist before taking Campral tablets.
You should not be drinking when you start Campral treatment. Campral will be less effective if
you keep drinking.
If you drink too much alcohol, your body system and in particular your nervous system adapt to the effects
of alcohol. When you then suddenly stop drinking you may experience some unpleasant symptoms known
as alcohol withdrawal syndrome, which can last up to two weeks.
You should take Campral tablets as soon as possible after the withdrawal period.
Because patients who suffer from alcohol dependence often also suffer from depression it is recommended
that you be monitored for symptoms of depression.
This medicine is not recommended for children or elderly.

Other medicines and Campral tablets
Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking, have recently taken or might take any other medicines.
Campral has often been given to patients together with other medicines that are used to treat alcohol
withdrawal or maintain abstinence. So far, Campral does not seem to interfere with the effects of other
medicines, however if you are prescribed diuretics (water tablets) consult your doctor.
Campral tablets with alcohol
Drinking alcohol while taking Campral does not make you feel sick, however do not drink alcohol at
all during your treatment with Campral. Even if you drink a small amount of alcohol you run the risk of
making your treatment fail and you may end up drinking heavily again.
Pregnancy and breast-feeding
If you are pregnant, think you might be pregnant, or planning to become pregnant, you should not take
Campral tablets without consulting your doctor first.
If you are breastfeeding, you should not take Campral tablets.
Driving and using machines
Campral does not make you sleepy and therefore is not expected to affect your ability to drive or use
machines.
