Taking other medicines
Please tell your doctor if you are taking or have recently taken any other medicines, including medicines obtained without a prescription. This is important because some medicines may affect the way Primidone Ennogen works, or Primidone Ennogen may affect the way other medicines work.

• Anticoagulants to prevent blood clots (such as warfarin)
• Barbiturates (such as sleeping tablets)
• Methadone (used to treat severe pain, cough, or as a substitute for morphine addiction)
• Herbal remedies containing St John’s Wort
• Antibiotics (such as chloramphenicol, metronidazole, doxycycline)
• Antiviral medicines (such as nelfinavir)
• Asthma medicines (such as theophylline, montelukast)
• Hormone containing medicines (such as the oral contraceptive pill)

Taking Primidone Ennogen with food and drink
Alcohol can react with Primidone Ennogen. Ask your doctor for advice if you want to drink alcohol. Pregnancy and breast-feeding Ask your doctor for advice before taking any medicine.
The use of Primidone Ennogen in pregnancy is associated with an increased risk of abnormalities in babies. Therefore, you must tell your doctor if you are pregnant, or trying to become pregnant because Primidone Ennogen has the potential to harm your unborn child.
Pregnant women can have reduced folic acid in their blood whilst taking Primidone Ennogen. In addition, the new born child may develop withdrawal symptoms if the mother has taken Primidone Ennogen in the late stages of pregnancy. Blood clotting problems have occurred occasionally in children born to women who were previously taking anticonvulsant drugs.
Tell your doctor if you are breast-feeding because Primidone Ennogen may cause your baby to be very sleepy.
