4.4 Special warnings and precautions for use
- Before starting treatment with TEBOCAN FORT during cerebral indications, it should be determined whether any pathological symptoms are associated with any specific treatment requiring treatment.
- Frequent dizziness and tinnitus should always be determined by a doctor. In case of sudden hearing loss or malfunction, medication should always be consulted.
- Some reports indicate that preparations containing Ginkgo may increase the tendency to bleed.
- Increase the risk of bleeding and should be used with anticoagulants and in the case of concurrent use, after consultation with the physician.
- Based on single case reports, ginkgo should be discontinued for preoperative surgery due to postoperative bleeding with Ginkgo preparations.

It can not be ruled out that administration of Ginkgo preparations in epileptic patients can trigger seizure formation and decrease seizure threshold.
This medicinal product contains less than 1 mmol of sodium per ml; ie it is "sodium free".
TEBOKAN FORT contains glycerol and propylene glycol. However, it does not require a warning because of the desire.
4.5 Interactions with other medicinal products and other forms of interaction
It is uncertain that the effects of coagulation inhibitors (fenprocumon, warfarin, clopidogrel, acetyl salicylic acid), non-steroid antiinflammatory drugs and anticonvulsant drugs in combination with TEBOCAN FORT may increase the effects of these drugs and the risk of bleeding
TEBOKAN FORT may exert effects on other medicinal metabolites (trazodone, omeprazole, nifedipine and nicardibine etc.) with the enzymes of the cytochrome P450-3A4, -1A2, -2C19 in the liver, affecting the potency and / or duration of action of these drugs.
Anticoagulants, antiplatelet agents, low molecular weight heparins and thrombolytic drugs: Use of Ginkgo with these drugs may lead to an increased risk of bleeding complications. Combined use should be avoided.
Anticonvulsants: It should not be overlooked that Ginkgonun may induce seizures when used with anticonvulsant drugs in epileptic patients. Ginkgo and anticonvulsants should be avoided in patients with epilepsy.
Buspiron: The addition of Ginkgo to the buspirone treatment has been reported in a case report, which may increase hypomanic episodes in patients. Patients using buspirone should be avoided with Ginkgo, especially in combination with psychotropic medications.
Insulin: Although there is no definitive data, Ginkgo may lower insulin levels in type 2 diabetic patients and hypoglycaemic individuals. Ginkgo should be cautious when used in combination with insulin and patients should be closely monitored for blood glucose levels and symptoms of hyperglycemia or hypoglycaemia.
MAO inhibitors: Theoretically, Ginkgo may increase the effectiveness of MAO inhibitors. Ginkgo has been shown to inhibit monoamine oxidase in animal and preclinical studies. Combination of ginkgo and MAO inhibitors should be avoided.
Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs): In preclinical studies, Ginkgo has been reported to affect SSRIs and lead to serotonin syndrome symptoms. Patients should be closely monitored for serotonin syndrome if selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors are used together with ginkgo.
Thiazide diuretics: A case report reported an increase in blood pressure in a patient using a combination of ginkgo biloba and thiazide diuretic. Whether this is due to a genuine drug interaction or whether it is an unexpected side effect due to Ginkgo or thiazide diuretic is unknown. Caution should be exercised against the risk of increased blood pressure when using ginkgo or thiazide diuretics together.

5. PHARMACOLOGICAL PROPERTIES
5.1 Pharmacodynamic properties
Pharmacotherapeutic group: Other Antidemic Drugs
ATC code: N06DX02
The following pharmacological effects of the specific Ginkgo biloba extract (EGb 761) found in TEBOCAN FORT DAMLA have been demonstrated in animal experiments:
Inhibition of retinopathy and retinal cell lesions, inhibition of age-related reduction in muscarinergic choline receptors and alpha 2 adrenoceptors, and increased hippocampal colony reuptake at the same time, in particular, improvement of memory performance and learning capacity, improvement of compensation in balance disorders, enhancement of circulation especially in microcirculation areas, improvement of blood rheological properties, inactivation of toxic oxygen radicals (flavonoids), PAF antagonism (ginkgolides) and neuroprotective effect (ginkgolides A and B, bilobalid).
The hypoxia-protective effects, especially the microcirculation areas, have been shown in humans to improve the blood flow and improve the rheological properties of the blood.

5.2 Pharmacokinetic properties
Absorbation:
The bioavailability of terpenes lactones ginkgolide, ginkgolide B and bilobalidine is fairly good following oral administration in humans of 80 mg of Ginkgo extract. The absolute bioavailability is 98% for ginkgolida, 79% for ginkgolid B and 72% for bilobalide. The maximum plasma concentration is 15 ng / ml for ginkgolida, 4 ng / ml for ginkgolid B and about 12 ng / ml for bilobalide.
The resorption rate of Egb 761, radioactively labeled with 14 C in rats after oral administration, was determined to be 60% and the time to reach the maximum plasma concentration was 1.5 hours. The half-life is 4.5 hours, and the second is an enterohepatic shunt, with a second plasma spike after 12 hours.
Distribution:
The binding rate to plasma proteins in human blood is 43% for ginkgolide A, 47% for ginkgolide B and 67% for bilobalide.
Cerebral bioavailability of EGb 761 extract in humans has been demonstrated by pharmaco-EEG based on dose-dependent effects on cerebro-electrical activity.
Metabolism:
A large portion of Ginkgolida and B are eliminated unchanged in the urine without being metabolized in the body.
Elimination:
The half life is 3.9 hours for ginkgolida, 7 hours for ginkgolid B and 3.2 hours for bilobalid.
Pharmacokinetic data on elimination of Ginkgolida, B and bilobalidn indicate that the primary elimination pathway is clearly renal excretion. A significant portion of each substance is eliminated without change, only a small fraction of which is glucuronidylated. Bilobalid re-uptake is at negligible levels due to the unstable nature of degradation in hydrolytic conditions.
5.3 Preclinical safety data
The effects on nonclinical studies were observed only at exposures considered to be adequate, above the maximum human exposure with minimal relevance for clinical use. Animal studies do not show adverse effects on pregnancy and / or embryonal fetal development and / or birth and / or postnatal development.
