1. What Ozawade is and what it is used for
Ozawade is a medicine that contains the active substance pitolisant.
Ozawade is used in adults with obstructive sleep apnoea to treat excessive daytime sleepiness. It is used when sleepiness occurs despite treatment with continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) or in patients who have not tolerated CPAP.
Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) is a condition that causes you to stop breathing for at least 10 seconds during sleep. This can lead to excessive daytime sleepiness and a tendency to suddenly fall asleep in inappropriate situations (sleep attacks).
The active substance, pitolisant, works on receptors (targets) on cells in the brain that are involved in stimulating alertness. This effect helps to reduce daytime sleepiness and tiredness.
2. What you need to know before you take Ozawade
Do not take Ozawade if you
- Are allergic to pitolisant or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6).
- Have severe liver problems, as pitolisant is normally broken down in the liver and high levels may build up in patients whose liver function is severely reduced.
- Are breastfeeding.
Warnings and precautions
Talk to your doctor before taking Ozawade if any of the following apply to you:
- You have ever had anxiety or depression with suicidal thoughts.
- You have liver or kidney problems, as your dose may need to be adjusted.

- You are very overweight or underweight, as your weight may increase or decrease while you are taking Ozawade.
- You have heart problems. Your doctor will need to check this regularly while you are taking Ozawade.
- You have severe epilepsy.

Children and adolescents
Ozawade should not be taken by children or adolescents.

Wakix
Package leaflet: Wakix 4.5 mg film-coated tablets / Wakix 18 mg film-coated tablets
1. What Wakix is and what it is used for
Wakix contains the active ingredient pitolisant. It is a medicine used to treat adults, adolescents and children over the age of 6 years with narcolepsy, with or without cataplexy.
Narcolepsy is a condition that causes excessive daytime sleepiness and a tendency to suddenly fall asleep in inappropriate situations (sleep attacks). Cataplexy is the onset of sudden muscle weakness or paralysis without losing consciousness, in response to a sudden emotional reaction such as anger, fear, joy, laughter or surprise.
The active substance, pitolisant, attaches to receptors on cells in the brain that are involved in stimulating alertness. This helps to combat daytime sleepiness and cataplexy and promote wakefulness.
2. What you need to know before you take Wakix
Do not take Wakix if you
- Are allergic to pitolisant or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6).
- Have severe liver problems, as pitolisant is normally broken down in the liver and excess levels may build up in patients whose liver function is severely reduced.
- Are breastfeeding.
Warnings and precautions
Talk to your doctor before taking Wakix if any of the situations mentioned below apply to you:
- You ever had anxiety or depression with suicidal thoughts.
- You have liver or kidney problems, as your dose may need to be adjusted.

- You have severe epilepsy.
If any of these apply to you, talk to your doctor or pharmacist before taking Wakix.
Other things to talk to your doctor or pharmacist about:
Some people with history of psychiatric disorders have reported having suicidal thoughts while taking this medicine. Tell your doctor straight away if you notice that you are becoming depressed or have suicidal thoughts (see section 4). You may want to consider asking a family member or close friend to help you look out for signs of depression or other changes in your behaviour.
Children
Wakix should not be taken by children less than 6 years old.
Other medicines and Wakix
Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking, have recently taken or might take any other medicines. Wakix can affect the way other medicines work and other medicines can affect the way Wakix works. Your doctor may need to adjust your doses.
In particular, you should be cautious if you take Wakix together with some antidepressants (e.g.
imipramine, clomipramine and mirtazapine) and some medicines to treat allergic conditions (anti- histamines, e.g. pheniramine maleate, chlorpheniramine, diphenydramine, promethazine, mepyramine, doxylamine).
