About flurbiprofen lozenges

Un mal di gola usually goes after a few days. Simple treatments that you can buy can ease symptoms until the sore throat goes. Usually, you would only need to see a doctor if your symptoms are severe, unusual, or do not ease within 3-4 days.

Flurbiprofen belongs to the group of medicines known as farmaci antinfiammatori non steroidei (FANS). These medicines are used to relieve pain and swelling (inflammation). Flurbiprofen lozenges are used to ease the symptoms of a sore throat. You can buy them without a prescription at pharmacies.

Some medicines are not suitable for people with certain conditions, and sometimes a medicine may only be used if extra care is taken. For these reasons, before you start using flurbiprofen lozenges it is important that your doctor or pharmacist knows:

• Se hai l'asma o qualsiasi altro disturbo allergico.

• Se hai mai avuto un'ulcera gastrica o duodenale, o se hai un disturbo infiammatorio intestinale come la malattia di Crohn o la colite ulcerosa.

• Se sei incinta o stai allattando.

• If you are under 12 or over 65 years of age.

• If you have liver or kidney problems.

• If you have a heart condition, or a problem with your blood vessels or circulation.

• Se hai la pressione alta.

• If you have ever had blood clotting problems.

• If you have an inflammatory condition called systemic lupus erythematosus (also called lupus, or SLE).

• Se stai assumendo altri medicinali. Questo include qualsiasi medicinale che stai assumendo e che è disponibile per l'acquisto senza prescrizione medica, così come i medicinali a base di erbe e complementari.

• Se hai mai avuto una reazione allergica a qualsiasi altro FANS (come aspirina, ibuprofene, diclofenac e indometacina), o a qualsiasi altro medicinale.

• Before using these lozenges, read the manufacturer's printed information leaflet from inside the pack and take them exactly as directed.

• You can suck one flurbiprofen lozenge every three to six hours if needed. Move the lozenge around in your mouth as you allow it to slowly dissolve. Do not use more than five lozenges in any 24-hour period.

• You should not use flurbiprofen lozenges for more than three days unless you have been directed to do so by your doctor.
  

• Have plenty to drink, even though it is tempting not to drink very much when it is painful to swallow. You may become mildly lacking in fluid in the body (dehydrated) if you don't drink much, particularly if you also have a high temperature (fever).

• If your sore throat does not begin to feel better within three days, ask for further advice from your pharmacist or doctor.

• If you buy any medicines, check with a pharmacist that they are safe to take alongside these lozenges. You should not take or use any other anti-inflammatory painkillers (such as aspirin, ibuprofen, diclofenac, and naproxen).

Along with their useful effects, most medicines can cause unwanted side-effects although not everyone experiences them. These usually improve as your body adjusts to the new medicine, but speak with your doctor or pharmacist if any of the following side-effects continue or become troublesome.

Se si verificano altri sintomi che ritieni possano essere dovuti a questo medicinale, parla con il tuo medico o farmacista.

• Tenere tutti i medicinali fuori dalla portata e dalla vista dei bambini.

• Conservare in un luogo fresco e asciutto, lontano da fonti di calore e luce diretta.
