Caffeine - Sodium Benzoate Warnings, Precautions, Pregnancy, Nursing, Abuse - Caffeine and Sodium Benzoate
WARNINGS
No information provided.
PRECAUTIONS
Large doses of caffeine
may produce headache,
excitement, agitation, a condition
resembling anxiety neurosis,
scintillating scotoma, hyperesthia, tinnitus, muscle
tremors or twitches, diuresis,
tachycardia, extrasystoles,
and other cardiac arrhythmias.
Further CNS depression
may occur when already depressed patients are too vigorously treated
with Caffeine and Sodium Benzoate Injection.
Caffeine and other xanthines may enhance the cardiac
inotropic effects
of b-adrenergic stimulating agents. Caffeine
has also been reported to increase its own metabolism
and that of other drugs, including phenobarbital
and aspirin. Caffeine produces false-positive elevations of serum
urate as measured by the
Bittner method. The drug
also produces slight increases in urine
levels of vanilamandelic acid
(VMA), catecholamines, and 5-hydrocyindoleacetic acid. Because high
urine levels of VMA
or catecholamines may result in false-positive
diagnosis of pheochromocytoma
or neuroblastoma, caffeine
intake should be avoided
during tests for these disorders.
