    Side effects

    The preparation is usually well tolerated, but in rare cases, adverse reactions due to phenylephrine hydrochloride are possible.
    From the side of the cardiovascular system: reflex bradycardia, arrhythmia, heart rhythm disturbances, increased blood pressure are possible.
    From the endocrine system: an increase in symptoms of hyperthyroidism.
    On the part of the immune system: allergic reactions, including cross-reactions in case of allergy to other sympathomimetics, which can manifest itself in the form of rashes, itching, angioedema.
    Skin and subcutaneous tissue disorders: contact dermatitis.
    From the nervous system: dizziness, nervousness, headache, tremors, insomnia, fear, feeling of blood rush to the face.
    At the site of application, irritation, hyperemia, rash, itching, edema, moderate pain / burning with injury or bleeding from the anus are possible.
    Methyl parahydroxybenzoate and propyl parahydroxybenzoate can cause allergic reactions (possibly delayed) and, in some cases, bronchospasm. Lanolin can cause local skin reactions (eg contact dermatitis). For Relief, ointment: benzoic acid is mildly irritating to the skin, eyes and mucous membranes.

    Special instructions

    In case of significant bloody discharge from the anus or in the presence of symptoms of the disease for more than 7 days of treatment, or in case of deterioration of the condition, it is necessary to additionally consult with a proctologist.
    The preparation should be used with caution in patients with hypertension, cardiovascular or cerebrovascular diseases, increased thyroid function (phenylephrine can cause adverse cardiovascular effects, especially when used in high doses or in sensitive individuals), angle-closure glaucoma.
    Patients with diabetes mellitus require caution when using this preparation: phenylephrine can increase blood glucose levels. These effects are usually temporary and minor and may increase when the recommended doses are exceeded. Blood glucose levels should be closely monitored.
    Persons with impaired urination due to hypertrophy or the presence of prostatic neoplasms: phenylephrine may impair urination in patients with prostatic hypertrophy due to spasm of the smooth muscles of the bladder neck resulting from stimulation of α1-adrenergic receptors.
    With hepatitis, urinary disorders, the use of the preparation is permissible taking into account the benefit / risk ratio, which is determined by the doctor.
    If an appropriate level of systemic absorption is achieved, the likelihood of interaction of phenylephrine applied topically in the anorectal region with MAO inhibitors should be taken into account, which leads to a potentiation of the hypertensive effect.
    Consideration should be given to the likelihood that phenylephrine, applied topically to the anorectal region, can cause severe hypertension due to stimulation of α-adrenergic receptors in some individuals while using this preparation with antihypertensive preparations.
    To minimize systemic effects, the recommended dose should not be exceeded unless otherwise advised by a physician.
    Do not use the preparation in the form of suppositories if the protective plastic sheath is damaged or missing.
    Use during pregnancy and lactation. Since the safety of using the preparation Relief® (phenylephrine) during pregnancy has not been studied, its use is possible if, in the opinion of the doctor, the benefit to the mother outweighs the potential risk to the fetus / child.
    Pregnant women should consult a doctor before using the preparation.
    Since it is not known whether topical application of the preparation Relif® (phenylephrine) can lead to sufficient systemic absorption to cause a measurable release of phenylephrine into breast milk, the physician must determine the importance of the preparation to the mother: whether it is necessary to stop breastfeeding or to discontinue the preparation.
    Studies of the effect of the preparation on fertility have not been carried out.
    The ability to influence the reaction rate when driving or operating other mechanisms. There was no effect on the ability to drive vehicles or operate other mechanisms.

    Interactions

    The preparationshould not be used concurrently with other vasoconstrictor agents (for any route of administration of the latter), as well as with antihypertensive preparations (β-adrenergic receptor blockers), since phenylephrine can cause severe arterial hypertension in some individuals due to the stimulation of α-adrenergic receptors.
    Atropine sulfate blocks phenylephrine-induced reflex bradycardia and increases the vasopressor response to phenylephrine. Concomitant use of phenylephrine with β-adrenergic receptor blockers can lead to hypertension and excessive bradycardia with possible heart block. It should be used with caution with thyroid hormones, preparations that affect cardiac conduction (cardiac glycosides, antiarrhythmic preparations).
    With simultaneous use with preparations that promote the excretion of potassium, for example with some diuretics such as furosemide, hypokalemia may increase and decrease arterial sensitivity to vasopressor preparations such as phenylephrine.
    The simultaneous use of phenylephrine and other sympathomimetics can lead to additional stimulation of the central nervous system to an extremely high level, which is accompanied by nervousness, irritability, and insomnia. Seizures are also likely.
    If you are using MAO inhibitors, consult your doctor before using phenylephrine in the anorectal area. MAO inhibitors, used before starting treatment with phenylephrine, potentiate the cardiac and pressor effects of the latter, since the metabolism of phenylephrine decreases.
    With local application of the preparation Relief®, rectal ointment, in the anus, an auxiliary substance white soft paraffin can reduce the strength and safety of latex condoms used simultaneously with the preparation.
