Expert advice for Manicarb Tablet SR
Your doctor may ask you to continue Manicarb for a long time. You must not stop taking it or change the dose, without speaking to your doctor first.
  If you miss a dose, take it as soon as possible. If it is within 4 hours of the next dose, skip the missed dose (about 6 hours in the case of extended- or slow-release preparations). Never double up doses.
  Despite your inconvenience and discomfort, your Manicarb blood levels, thyroid function, and kidney function need to be monitored as long as you take Manicarb.
  During treatment with Manicarb, it is recommended that you drink about 2 to 3 liter of fluid daily and use normal amounts of salt. Inform your doctor if you start or stop a low-salt diet.
 
  Avoid sudden change in your diet or fluid intake. If you do go on a diet, your doctor may need to increase the frequency of blood tests.
  Do not start any medicine including herbal or ayurvedic without telling your doctor. As it may significantly change the Manicarb levels. Caffeine and alcohol act as diuretics and can lower your Manicarb concentrations.
