PATIENT INFORMATION
Activities Requiring Mental Alertness
Patients should be cautioned against engaging in hazardous occupations requiring complete mental alertness, and motor coordination such as operating machinery or driving a motor vehicle after ingestion of XYZAL.
Concomitant Use of Alcohol and other Central Nervous System Depressants
Concurrent use of XYZAL with alcohol or other central nervous system depressants should be avoided because additional reduction in mental alertness may occur.
Dosing of XYZAL
The daily dose in adults and adolescents 12 years of age and older should not exceed 5 mg once daily in the evening. In children 6 to 11 years of age the recommended dose is 2.5 mg once daily in the evening. Patients should be advised to not ingest more than the recommended dose of XYZAL because of the increased risk of somnolence at higher doses.
