Overview

Ceretam 20% Solution is a prescription-only medicine (POM) that contains Piracetam 20% w/v (equivalent to 1g per 5ml). It is supplied as a solution and is dispensed in Malaysia only against a valid prescription issued by a registered doctor.

Under Malaysian rules for prescription medicines, this page carries product, safety and handling information only. Your doctor or pharmacist will explain whether this medicine is suitable for you, the dose you should take, and how long you should take it.

On DoctorOnCall, Ceretam 20% Solution is reviewed by a licensed doctor through an online consultation and dispensed by a registered pharmacist before delivery. Always follow the instructions on your prescription label and the package insert supplied with the product, and do not share this medicine with anyone else.

Directions for Use

Measure the prescribed amount of Ceretam 20% Solution using the measuring cup or oral syringe provided rather than a household spoon, and take it with a glass of water, with or without food. If this medicine is being given to a child, follow your doctor’s weight-based dosing instructions exactly.

Dosage

The dose of Ceretam 20% Solution depends on the condition being treated and is determined by your doctor, typically measured out and given two to three times daily using the dosing cup or oral syringe provided. For cortical myoclonus, doses are often started at a higher level and gradually adjusted based on your response. Do not change your dose without consulting your doctor.

Storage Instructions

Store below 30°C in a dry place, away from direct sunlight and out of reach of children.
