Application features
Pregnant
The preparation should not be used during pregnancy, unless absolutely necessary.
During treatment with Emend®, breastfeeding is not recommended.
The potential for the effect of aprepitant on fertility is not fully understood because exposure levels in excess of therapeutic exposure in humans cannot be achieved in animal studies. Fertility studies have not demonstrated direct or indirect adverse effects on mating, fertility, embryo / fetal development, or sperm count and motility.
Children
The safety and efficacy of using the Emend® preparation for the treatment of children and adolescents under the age of 18 have not been established. There are no data, therefore, the preparation is not recommended for use in such patients.
Drivers
The preparation "Emend®" may slightly affect the ability to drive vehicles and mechanisms. After using the preparation, dizziness and fatigue may occur.
Overdose
In case of overdose, you should stop taking the preparation "Emend®" and prescribe general supportive therapy, as well as provide monitoring. Because of the antiemetic activity of aprepitant, preparations that induce vomiting will be ineffective. Aprepitant cannot be removed by hemodialysis.
Side effects
In patients treated with aprepitant during chemotherapy with a high risk of emetogenicity, the following adverse reactions most often occurred due to taking the drug: hiccups (4.6%), increased ALT levels (2.8%), dyspepsia (2.6%), constipation (2.4%), headache (2.0%), loss of appetite (2.0%). During chemotherapy with a moderate risk of emetogenicity, increased fatigue most often occurred (1.4%).
