Special recommendations

The oil solution is extremely carefully prescribed to patients with atherosclerotic lesions, as well as with high risks of thromboembolism.

During therapy, the dosages prescribed by a specialist should be strictly adhered to in order to avoid the development of symptoms of tocopherol overdose. With prolonged use of the oil solution, it is necessary to carry out systematic studies of the functions of blood coagulation.

If dizziness or blurred vision develops, great caution is advised or completely refuse to drive a car or carry out work that requires high psychomotor functions.

Drug interactions

Vitamin E in ampoules (the price of an oil solution is not a criterion for its therapeutic effect) is prescribed if other dosage forms are poorly tolerated or according to the doctor's recommendations.

The drug can react with other drugs, which must be taken into account, especially when used in childhood.

It is forbidden to use an oil solution simultaneously with the following groups of medicines:

• indirect anticoagulants;
• products containing iron;
• silver preparations;
• alkaline-reacting drugs.

For better absorption of the drug, as well as to prevent the development of vitamin A deficiency, the oil solution is recommended to be taken together with retinol. The drug is a phylloquinone antagonist. The combined use of the main agent with steroid and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) can lead to an enhanced effect of the second group of drugs.

The oil solution, when combined with cardiac glycosides, retinol and vitamin D, is able to reduce the toxic effect of these drugs. The simultaneous use of tocopherol with anticonvulsants can enhance the effectiveness of the second group of drugs.

The absorption rate of the main drug can be reduced when used simultaneously with mineral oils, colestipol and cholesterol.

When using other medicines during the period of prescribing an oil solution, it is recommended to inform in advance about this to the attending physician, which will reduce or completely eliminate the risks of developing drug interactions.
