1.    What Bramitob is and what it is used for

Bramitob contains tobramycin which is an antibiotic belonging to a family called the aminoglycosides. It fights infections caused by Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

Bramitob is used for treating chronic chest infections in patients with cystic fibrosis caused by Pseudomonas bacteria. It kills the bacteria and helps to improve your breathing. Pseudomonas is a very common bacterium that infects nearly all patients with cystic fibrosis at some time during their lives. Some people do not get this infection until later on in their lives while others get it very young. If infection is not properly controlled it will continue to damage the lungs causing further problems. As Bramitob is breathed-in the antibiotic, tobramycin, can get straight into your lungs to work against the bacteria causing the infection.

Bramitob is indicated only for patients aged 6 years and older.

To achieve the best results please make every effort to use your medicine as instructed.

2.    Before you use Bramitob

Do not use Bramitob:

•    If you are allergic (hypersensitive) to tobramycin, any of the other ingredients of Bramitob or any other type of aminoglycoside antibiotic

•    If you are taking any of the medicines listed in the section below, Taking other medicines

Take special care with Bramitob:

The tobramycin in Bramitob is one of a group of medicines that can occasionally cause hearing loss, dizziness and kidney damage (see also Section 4 on the back of the leaflet, Possible side effects). It is important that you tell your doctor if any of the following applies to you:

•    If your chest becomes tight after using your Bramitob. Your doctor will supervise your first dose of Bramitob and check your lung function before and after dosing. If you are not already doing so, your doctor may ask you to use a bronchodilator, (e.g. salbutamol), before using Bramitob.

•    If you have ever suffered from any neuromuscular disorders such as parkinsonism or other conditions characterised by muscle weakness, including myasthenia gravis.

•    If you have ever experienced kidney problems in the past. Before you start to use Bramitob, your doctor may check that your kidneys are working properly by testing a blood or urine sample. Your doctor may re-check this regularly during treatment.

•    If you have ever experienced in the past

-    ringing in your ears

-    any other problems with your hearing

-    dizziness.

Your doctor may test your hearing before starting Bramitob or at any time during your Bramitob treatment.

•    If you are currently coughing up blood in your sputum. Inhaling medicines may cause you to cough and your doctor may ask you to stop using Bramitob until little or no blood appears in your sputum.

•    If you are concerned that your Bramitob is not as effective as it should be. Bacteria can sometimes develop resistance to antibiotic treatment.

Taking other medicines:

Before starting treatment, please tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking or have recently taken any other medicines, including medicines obtained without a prescription.

•    Do not use Bramitob if you are taking diuretics (water tablets) containing furosemide or ethacrynic acid, without discussing this with your doctor.

•    Do not use Bramitob if you are taking urea or mannitol (these products are used to treat serious conditions in hospitalised patients).

•    Some other medicines can sometimes harm the kidneys or hearing and this could be made worse by Bramitob treatment.

You may be receiving injections of tobramycin or other aminoglycosides as well as inhaling Bramitob. Such injections, which may increase the very low body levels of aminoglycoside caused by inhaling Bramitob, should be avoided when the following medicines are being taken:

•    Amphotericin B, cefalotin, ciclosporin, tacrolimus, polymyxins

•    Platinum compounds (for example, carboplatin and cisplatin)

•    Anticholinesterases (for example, neostigmine and pyridostigmine), botulinum toxin If this applies to you, you should speak to your doctor.

Pregnancy and breast-feeding:

If you are pregnant or could become pregnant or you are breastfeeding, talk to your doctor before using Bramitob.

Driving and using machines:

Bramitob has minor influence on the ability to drive and use machines.

In rare cases Bramitob may make you feel dizzy. It is therefore possible that Bramitob could affect your ability to drive a car or operate machinery.

3.    How to use Bramitob

Always use Bramitob exactly as your doctor has told you. You should check with your doctor or pharmacist if you are not sure. Instructions for using Bramitob are given after the dosage section.

Do not mix or dilute your Bramitob with any other medicine in your nebuliser.

If you are taking several different treatments for cystic fibrosis you should take them in the following order:

-    bronchodilator (e.g. salbutamol), then

-    chest physiotherapy, then

-    other inhaled medicines, then

-    Bramitob

Also check the order with your doctor.

Bramitob should be used with a clean, dry PARI LC PLUS or PARI LC SPRINT reusable nebuliser (for your own personal use only) and a suitable compressor. Ask your doctor or physiotherapist for advice on which compressor to use.)

The single-dose Bramitob container should be opened just before use. Any unused solution that is not immediately used should be discarded.

Dosage:

•    The dose (one 4 ml container) is the same for all persons aged 6 years and older.

•    Use two single-dose containers per day for 28 days. Inhale the contents of one container in the morning and one in the evening. There should be a 12 hour gap between the doses.

•    You then have 28 days without taking your medicine before starting another 28-day treatment cycle again.

•    It is important that you keep using the product twice each day during your 28 days on treatment and that you keep to the 28-day on/28-day off cycle. Keep taking Bramitob in this way until your doctor tells you to stop.

If you use more Bramitob than you should:

If you inhale too much Bramitob you may get a very hoarse voice. Make sure you tell your doctor as soon as possible.

If you forget to use Bramitob:

•    If there are more than 6 hours before you are due to use your next dose (container), use Bramitob now.

•    If there are less than 6 hours before you are due to use your next dose (container), miss out the forgotten dose (container).

Then continue with your next dose as normal.
