Our pursuit of human health care (hhc)

Eisai makes no mention of the word “pharmaceutical” in its company name.

This is because what we really want to create is the everyday fulfillment of the precious hopes of patients and their families, which goes beyond the provision of medicines.

“What are the patients' true needs ?”

“What do families truly wish for ?”

We want to get close to patients, see the situation from their perspectives and get a sense of their thoughts and feelings that cannot be expressed in words.

We continue with our challenge to turn those thoughts and wishes into hopes for tomorrow.

DIACOMIT can cause somnolence. Patients should be monitored for somnolence, and if it occurs, a dose reduction should be considered. Patients should be cautioned against engaging in hazardous activities requiring mental alertness, such as operating dangerous machinery or motor vehicles. DIOCOMIT can cause decreases in appetite and weight. The growth of pediatric patients should be carefully monitored. DIACOMIT can cause a significant decline in neutrophil and platelet count. Hematologic testing should be obtained prior to starting treatment and then every 6 months. DIACOMIT should generally be withdrawn gradually to minimize the risk of increased seizure frequency and status epilepticus. DIACOMIT powder for oral suspension contains phenylalanine which can be harmful to patients with phenylketonuria. DIACOMIT can increase the risk of suicidal thoughts or behavior in patients. Patients should be monitored for emergence or worsening of depression, suicidal thoughts or behavior, and/or any unusual changes in mood or behavior. The most common adverse reactions associated with DIACOMIT in clinical trials were somnolence (67%), decreased appetite (45%), agitation (27%), ataxia (27%), weight decreased (27%), hypotonia (24%), nausea (15%), tremor (15%), dysarthria (12%), and insomnia (12%).
