At least two months of continuous treatment is considered an adequate period for determining the efficacy of Giga Oral Suspension.
Paediatric population: The safety and efficacy of Giga Oral Suspension in children have not been established. This medicine is not recommended for use in children.
Elderly: In general, dose selection for an elderly patient should be cautious, usually starting at the low end of the dosing range, reflecting the greater frequency of decreased hepatic, renal, or cardiac function, and of concomitant disease or other drug therapy (see Precautions).
Renal impairment: Megestrol acetate is known to be substantially excreted by the kidney, and the risk of toxic reactions to this drug may be greater in patients with impaired renal function.
Method of administration: For oral use only. Shake well immediately before dosing.
A plastic dosage cup with markings is provided for convenience.
