Copy from the pack in hand
Source-linked reading points
- “200 mg” is the labelled amount in each tablet of this exact product, not a webpage instruction for how many tablets any person should take per day. The same name, a different market, another pack or another dosage form cannot be self-converted from one number.
- The current label states that these tablets should not be crushed or divided. Do not treat “half a tablet” as a way to halve, make up, adjust or interchange medicine; if the actual pack, swallowing situation or prescription differs from this page, take the pack to a pharmacist or prescribing team.
- The current label notes that retinal toxicity is related to cumulative dosage and treatment duration and lists baseline and during-treatment eye examinations. A webpage cannot decide an individual's eye symptoms, need for testing or timing of adjustment; contact the local care team promptly for visual changes or another concern.
- The label also notes cardiomyopathy, arrhythmias and risks involving multiple co-medications. Do not self-add, stop, switch or separate any glucose-lowering medicine, antiseizure medicine, immune-related medicine, anti-infective, stomach medicine, herb or supplement from a webpage; have a clinician or pharmacist review the complete prescription, OTC and supplement list item by item.
