What precautions apply to Mebeverine Hydrochloride?

When prescribing Mebeverine Hydrochloride, clinicians should consider several precautionary measures to ensure safe use. - Assess medical history: verify absence of known hypersensitivity to mebeverine or related compounds. - Monitor gastrointestinal conditions: use cautiously in patients with severe obstructive bowel disease. - Pregnancy and lactation: avoid unless benefit outweighs potential risk, as safety data are limited. - Drug interactions: review concomitant medications that may affect gut motility. - Store at ambient temperature: keep below 25 °C, retain in original packaging, protect from moisture.
