Precautions:

• Babiz is contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to any of its ingredients.
• Concomitant intake of tetracyclines and zinc may decrease the absorption and serum levels of tetracyclines.
• Similarly, concomitant administration of zinc and fluoroquinolones may decrease the absorption and serum levels of some fluoroquinolones.
• Co-administration of Niacin and HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors (e.g., lovastatin) may increase the risk of myopathy and rhabdomyolysis.
• Pyridoxine may reduce levodopa's effectiveness by increasing its peripheral metabolism. 
• Co-administration of pyridoxine with phenytoin may decrease serum levels of phenytoin.⁴ 
• In acute renal failure, zinc accumulation may occur, and dosage adjustment may be needed.
