With a persistent and significant increase in transaminases and changes in other parameters. For liver function indicators, the drug should be discontinued and follow-up tests should be performed.
In patients with an increased risk of side effects, treatment begins with a dose of 7.5 mg. In end-stage CRF in patients undergoing dialysis, the dose should not exceed 7.5 mg / day.
During the treatment period, care should be taken when driving vehicles and doing other activities. potentially dangerous activities that require increased concentration of attention and speed of psychomotor reactions (when dizziness and drowsiness occur).
