How To Use

How to take Uniphyllin Continus tablets

Always take these tablets exactly as described in this leaflet or as your doctor, pharmacist or nurse has told you. Check with your doctor, pharmacist or nurse if you are not sure.

Swallow your tablets whole with a glass of water. Do not crush or chew them.

Uniphyllin Continus tablets are designed to work properly over 12 hours. If a tablet is broken, crushed or chewed the entire 12-hour dose may be absorbed rapidly into your body.

This can be dangerous, causing serious problems such as an overdose.

You should take your tablets every 12 hours. For instance, if you take a tablet at 8 o’clock in the morning, you should take your next tablet at 8 o’clock in the evening.

Adults

The recommended starting dose for adults is one 200 mg tablet every 12 hours. Your doctor may increase your dose to one 300 mg or 400 mg tablet every 12 hours, depending upon how you respond to treatment. If you are elderly your doctor may suggest a lower dose. Different doses will also be required if you have certain other medical conditions. Your doctor may ask you to have regular blood tests to ensure you are taking the correct dose.

Use in children

Children over six years of age can take these tablets. The required dose will depend on their weight, age and the severity of their breathing problems. This should be discussed with your doctor, pharmacist or nurse. Do not exceed the dose recommended by your doctor. Check with your doctor, pharmacist or nurse if you are not sure.
