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.

Directions for Use

Take Ceretam 800mg Tablet at the times advised by your doctor, with a full glass of water, and with or without food. If you are taking this medicine several times a day, try to space the doses evenly. Do not stop or change your dose suddenly, especially if it has been prescribed for myoclonus, without your doctor’s advice.

Dosage

Dosing of Ceretam 800mg Tablet is individualised by your doctor based on the condition being treated. For cortical myoclonus, treatment is typically started at a high dose and increased gradually every few days, up to a maximum daily dose, in combination with other anti-myoclonic medicines under specialist supervision. For other indications, lower divided daily doses may be used. Never adjust your dose without consulting your doctor.
