Effects on the liver: No dosage adjustment of Coroclesstra is required for liver dysfunction. Before using Coroclesstra, the possibility of gastric cancer must be excluded because the drug may mask symptoms or delay the diagnosis of cancer. Coroclesstra should be used with caution in patients with liver disease. Serum concentrations of the drug may be slightly increased, but no dose adjustment is required. Avoid taking Coroclesstra if you have cirrhosis or severe liver failure. If necessary, reduce the dose of Coroclesstra or use it every other day. Regular monitoring of liver function is recommended while taking the drug. Use Coroclesstra with caution in patients with renal failure, the elderly. Pregnancy: There are no adequate studies on the use of pantoprazole in women during pregnancy. Animal studies have demonstrated that pantoprazole crosses the placenta, but no teratogenic effects have been observed. Therefore, Coroclesstra should only be used when clearly needed during pregnancy. Lactation: It is not known whether pantoprazole is excreted in human milk. Based on the rat carcinogenic potential of pantoprazole, consideration should be given to discontinuing nursing or discontinuing the drug, depending on the role of pantoprazole in the mother. Drug Interactions: Although pantoprazole is metabolised by the cytochrome P450 system in the liver, it does not inhibit or induce this enzyme system. No clinically significant interactions were observed between Pantoprazol and commonly used drugs such as Diazepam, Phenytoin, Nifedipine, Digoxin, Warfarin or oral contraceptives. Similar to other proton pump inhibitors, pantoprazole may reduce the absorption of certain drugs whose absorption is dependent on gastric pH, such as azole antifungals.
