How should this medicine be used?Return to
top
Amoxapine comes as a tablet to take by mouth. It is usually
taken one or more times a day and may be taken with or without food. Follow the
directions on your prescription label carefully, and ask your doctor or
pharmacist to explain any part you do not understand. Take amoxapine exactly as
directed. Do not take more or less of it or take it more often than prescribed
by your doctor.
Continue to take amoxapine even if you feel well. Do not
stop taking amoxapine without talking to your doctor, especially if you have
taken large doses for a long time. Your doctor probably will want to decrease
your dose gradually. This drug must be taken regularly for a few weeks before
its full effect is felt.

IMPORTANT WARNING:
| Studies have shown that children and teenagers who
take antidepressants ('mood elevators') such as amoxapine may be more
likely to think about harming or killing themselves or to plan or try to
do so than children who do not take antidepressants. Children younger
than 18 years of age should not normally take amoxapine.If your child’s
doctor has prescribed amoxampine for your child, you should watch his or
her behavior very carefully, especially at the beginning of treatment
and any time his or her dose is increased or decreased. Your child may
develop serious symptoms very suddenly, so it is important to pay
attention to his or her behavior every day. Call your child’s doctor
right away if he or she experiences any of these symptoms: new or
worsening depression; thinking about harming or killing him- or herself
or planning or trying to do so; extreme worry; agitation; panic attacks;
difficulty falling or staying asleep; irritability; aggressive behavior;
acting without thinking; severe restlessness; frenzied abnormal
excitement; or any other sudden or unusual changes in behavior. Your
child’s doctor will want to see your child often while he or she is
taking amoxapine, especially at the beginning of his or her
treatment.Your child’s doctor may also want to speak with you or your
child by telephone from time to time. Be sure that your child keeps all
appointments for office visits or telephone conversations with his or
her doctor.Your child's doctor or pharmacist will give you the
manufacturer’s patient information sheet (Medication Guide) when your
child begins treatment with amoxapine. Read the information carefully
and ask your child's doctor or pharmacist if you have any questions. You
also can obtain the Medication Guide from the FDA website: http://www.fda.gov/cder/drug/antidepressants/MG_template.pdf.Talk
to your child’s doctor about the risks of giving amoxapine to your
child. |
