If the previously-mentioned symptoms still exist, discontinuance of the drug may be considered.

If they do occur, Eposino should be stopped immediately and the proper treatment provided.

Therefore, blood pressure should be monitored periodically, dosage may be decreased or stopped and the depressor drug may also be adjusted.
