CONTRAINDICATIONS

RE-PB Hyos Elixir is contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to any of the ingredients. Phenobarbital is
contraindicated in patients with acute intermittent porphyria and in those patients in which phenobarbital produces
restlessness and/or excitement.

It is also contraindicated in patients with glaucoma, obstructive uropathy; paralytic ileus; myasthenia gravis;
intestinal atony; unstable cardiovascular status in acute hemorrhage; hiatal hernia associated with reflux esophagitis;
obstructive disease of the gastrointestinal tract; or severe ulcerative colitis

WARNINGS

Heat prostration can occur with belladonna alkaloids in high temperatures.

Diarrhea may be an early symptom of incomplete intestinal obstruction, especially in patients with ileostomy or colostomy.
In this instance, treatment with this drug could be harmful.

RE-PB Hyos Elixir may produce drowsiness and blurred vision. The patient should be warned about engaging in hazardous work or activities requiring mental alertness, such as operating a motor vehicle or other machinery. Phenobarbital may decrease the effect of anticoagulants, and larger doses of the anticoagulant may be needed for optimal effect. When phenobarbital is discontinued, the dose of the anticoagulant may have to be decreased. Phenobarbital may be habit forming and should not be administered to patients who are susceptible to addiction or to those with a history of physical and/or psychological drug dependence.

Barbiturates should be used with caution in patients with hepatic dysfunction.

PRECAUTIONS

GENERAL:
Use with caution in patients with: autonomic neuropathy, hepatic or renal disease, hyperthyroidism, coronary heart
disease, congestive heart failure, cardiac arrhythmias, tachycardia, and hypertension.

Belladonna alkaloids may produce a delay in gastric emptying (antral stasis) which would complicate the management of
gastric ulcer. Do not rely on the use of the drug in the presence of complication of biliary tract disease. Theoretically,
with overdosage, a curare-like action may occur.

CARCINOGENESIS, MUTAGENESIS, IMPAIRMENT OF FERTILITY:
Long-term studies in animals have not been performed to evaluate carcinogenic potential.

PREGNANCY CATEGORY C:
Animal reproduction studies have not been conducted with RE-PB Hyos Elixir. It is not known whether RE-PB Hyos Elixir
can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman or can affect reproduction capacity. RE-PB Hyos Elixir
should be given to a pregnant woman only if clearly needed.

NURSING MOTHERS:
It is not known whether this drug is excreted in human milk. Because many drugs are excreted in human milk, caution
should be exercised when RE-PB Hyos Elixir is administered to a nursing woman.

ADVERSE REACTIONS

Adverse reactions associated with anticholinergics and/or anticonvulsants are: dry mouth; tachycardia; urinary
hesitancy and retention; palpitation; blurred vision; prolonged pupil dilation; cycloplegia; increased ocular tension; loss of
taste sense; headache; nervousness; drowsiness; weakness; dizziness; insomnia; nausea; vomiting; severe allergic
reaction or drug idiosyncrasies, including anaphylaxis, hives and/or other dermal manifestations; decreased sweating; impotence; suppression of lactation; constipation; bloated feeling and musculoskeletal pain. Elderly patients may react
with symptoms of excitement, agitation and drowsiness to even small doses of the drug. Phenobarbital may produce
excitement in some patients, rather than a sedative effect. In patients habituated to barbiturates, abrupt withdrawal may
produce delirium or convulsions.

Call your doctor for medical advice about side effects. You may report side effects to the FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088.

dry skin, dizziness, dryness of the mouth, difficulty in swallowing, and CNS stimulation. Call your doctor or
