Important Safety Information
Patients taking InnoPran XL™ should be advised against
abrupt interruption or cessation of therapy without their physician’s
advice. Exacerbation of angina, and in some cases myocardial infarction,
have been reported following abrupt discontinuance or propranolol
therapy. Dosage should be gradually reduced over at least a few
weeks.
Metabolism of propranolol involves multiple pathways in the cytochrome
system P-450 (CYP2D6, 1A2, 2C19) which could potentially lead
to drug-drug interactions. Please consult the prescribing information
for a list of interaction information.
InnoPran XL is contraindicated in patients with cardiogenic shock;
sinus bradycardia, greater than first-degree AV block; and in
patients with bronchial asthma or with known hypersensitivity
to propranolol hydrochloride.
With InnoPran XL the most common side effects were fatigue 5%
vs. 3%, dizziness 7%vs. 2%, and constipation 3% vs. 0%.
Therapeutic blood levels do not necessarily correlate with efficacy.
