Patients with moderate renal impairment (creatinine clearance 30-60 ml / min) are recommended to take one tablet (35 mg) in the morning during breakfast.

Special instructions
The drug is not intended for the relief of angina attacks and is not indicated for the initial course of therapy for unstable angina or myocardial infarction, before hospitalization or in the first days of hospitalization.
In an attack of angina pectoris, the pathology of the coronary vessels should be re-evaluated and the treatment used adjusted (medication and possibly revascularization).
Trimetazidine can cause or worsen the symptoms of parkinsonism (tremor, akinesia, increased muscle tone), the patient should be monitored regularly, especially the elderly. In doubtful cases, the patient should be referred to a neurologist for an appropriate examination.
With the development of motor disorders, such as symptoms of parkinsonism, tremor, restless legs syndrome, unsteadiness when walking, it is necessary to stop taking Tri-zidine M. The frequency of development of motor disorders is low, is reversible, and when stopped, trimetazidine is allowed. In most patients, recovery occurs within 4 months after trimetazidine is discontinued. If the symptoms of parkinsonism persisted for more than 4 months after trimetazidine was discontinued, a neurologist should be consulted.
With unsteady walking or low muscle tone, the patient may fall, especially when using antihypertensive drugs.
Caution should be exercised if patients may increase the time to remove trimetazidine from the body:
– moderate impairment of kidney function
– Elderly patients over 75 years of age.
Pregnancy and lactation.
In experiments on animals, a teratogenic effect was not detected. However, due to the lack of clinical data, the use of this drug during pregnancy should be avoided.
Treatment with the drug is not recommended during breastfeeding, because. there are no data on the excretion of trimetazidine in breast milk.
