NUROFEN FLU AND COLD 200 mg + 30 mg coated tablets
Ibuprofen + Pseudoephedrine hydrochloride
What is it and what is it for?
Nurofen Cold and Flu contains two active ingredients:
• ibuprofen, which belongs to a group of medicines called non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) whose action allows to reduce the pain and swelling caused by inflammation and to lower fever;
• pseudoephedrine hydrochloride, belongs to a group of medicines called vasoconstrictors whose action on the blood vessels inside the nose serves to relieve nasal congestion.
Nurofen Cold and Flu is indicated in adults and adolescents over 12 years of age for the treatment of cold and flu symptoms such as stuffy nose (nasal and sinus congestion), aches and pains, headache, fever and sore throat.
Talk to your doctor if you do not feel better or feel worse after 3 days in adolescents over 12 years and after 5 days in adults.
What you need to know before taking the medicine
Do not take Nurofen Cold and Flu:
• if you are allergic to ibuprofen, pseudoephedrine or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6);
• if in the past after taking ibuprofen, acetylsalicylic acid or other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), other medicines to treat fever or pain, you have experienced allergic reactions such as polyps in the nose, wheezing and/or difficulty breathing (asthma), rhinitis, swelling of the face, lips and throat (angioedema) or hives;
• if you suffer or have suffered from recurrent gastric/duodenal ulcers (peptic ulcers) or bleeding (at least two distinct episodes of diagnosed ulcers or bleeding);
• if you suffer from severe liver disease (liver failure);
• if you suffer from severe acute (sudden) or chronic (long-term) kidney disease or kidney failure;
• if you suffer from severe heart disease (severe heart failure);
• if you have serious heart or circulation problems such as increased heart rate (tachycardia), very high blood pressure (severe hypertension) or high blood pressure not controlled by medicines, chest pain that occurs when the heart does not receive enough oxygen (angina pectoris);
• if you suffer from overactive thyroid (hyperthyroidism);
• if you suffer from a disease characterised by a high concentration of glucose in the blood (diabetes);
• if you suffer from a tumor affecting the kidney (pheochromocytoma);
• if you suffer from increased intraocular pressure (glaucoma);
• if you suffer from difficulty urinating related to prostate problems;
• if you are under 12 years of age;
• if you are a pregnant or breastfeeding woman;
• if you are taking medicines for depression, such as non-selective monoamine oxidase inhibitors (known as MAOIs), or if you have taken them in the last 14 days.
Warnings and precautions
Talk to your doctor or pharmacist before taking Nurofen Cold & Flu if:
• you are taking other medicines used to treat pain, to lower fever and/or to treat inflammation (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, NSAIDs including COX-2 inhibitors); the concomitant use of these medicines may increase the risk of side effects and should be avoided (see section "Other medicines and Nurofen Cold and Flu");
• you have clotting problems or are taking medicines to thin your blood (oral anticoagulants). Your doctor will carefully assess whether you can take this medicine as it may lead to reduced clotting (see section "Other medicines and Nurofen Cold and Flu");
• are elderly and/or have had stomach and intestinal problems (history of ulcers), especially with bleeding or perforation, or if you are taking medications that may increase the risk of gastrointestinal events. In these cases, your doctor will advise you to start treatment with the lowest available dose and possibly the concomitant use of stomach-protective medications (misoprostol or proton pump inhibitors);
• suffer or have suffered from an inflammatory bowel disease (ulcerative colitis, Crohn's disease);
• you are taking medicines that may increase the risk of ulceration or bleeding, medicines used to treat inflammation (oral corticosteroids), medicines used to thin the blood (such as warfarin), antiplatelet drugs (aspirin) and medicines to treat depression (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors) (see section "Other medicines and Nurofen Cold and Flu");
• have heart problems including heart attack, angina (chest pain) or if you have had a heart attack, coronary artery bypass surgery, peripheral artery disease (poor circulation in the legs or feet due to narrowing or blockage of the arteries) or any type of stroke (including 'mini-stroke' or 'TIA', transient ischemic attack);
• have high blood pressure, diabetes, high cholesterol, a family history of heart disease or stroke, or are a smoker;
• suffers from reduced kidney function;
• suffer or have suffered from allergic reactions or episodes of asthma (difficulty breathing) as you may experience shortness of breath;
• suffers from liver problems;
• in dehydrated adolescents (i.e. those who have lost a lot of fluids through fever, vomiting or diarrhoea) due to the risk of altered kidney function;
• suffers from a chronic autoimmune disease that causes problems in various parts of the body, particularly the skin (systemic lupus erythematosus) or mixed connective tissue disease, as it increases the risk of aseptic meningitis;
• if you suffer from hyperexcitement;
• if you take medicines that mimic the effects of sympathetic nervous system stimulation on various tissues such as nasal decongestants, appetite suppressants and amphetamine stimulants (see "Other medicines and Nurofen Cold and Flu") your doctor will carefully evaluate co-administration;
• if you develop a generalised feverish rash associated with pustules, stop taking Nurofen Cold and Flu and contact your doctor or seek medical help immediately.
See paragraph 4;
• Sudden abdominal pain or rectal bleeding may occur with Nurofen Cold & Flu, due to inflammation of the colon (ischaemic colitis). If you develop these gastrointestinal symptoms, stop taking Nurofen Cold & Flu and contact your doctor or seek medical help immediately. See section 4;
• have an infection. See section "Infections" below.
Signs of an allergic reaction to ibuprofen have been reported, including breathing problems, swelling of the face and neck (angioedema), and chest pain.
Stop taking Nurofen Cold & Flu immediately and contact your doctor or emergency department immediately if you notice any of these signs.
Anti-inflammatory/painkiller medications such as ibuprofen may be associated with a small increased risk of heart attack or stroke, especially when taken in high doses. Do not exceed the recommended dose or duration of treatment.
Bleeding, ulceration, and perforation of the stomach or intestine, which can be fatal, have been reported at any time during treatment with all NSAIDs, with or without warning symptoms or a previous history of serious gastrointestinal events. If bleeding or ulceration occurs, stop taking Nurofen Cold & Flu and contact your doctor (see section "Possible side effects").
If you have suffered from gastrointestinal problems (gastrointestinal toxicity) in the past, especially if you are elderly, tell your doctor about any uncommon symptoms (especially gastrointestinal bleeding) particularly in the initial stages of treatment.
Nurofen Cold & Flu may cause reduced blood flow to the optic nerve. If you experience sudden vision loss, stop taking Nurofen Cold & Flu and contact your doctor or healthcare provider immediately. See section 4.
Skin reactions
Serious skin reactions have been reported in association with treatment with Nurofen Cold & Flu. Stop taking Nurofen Cold & Flu and consult your doctor immediately if you develop a rash, mucosal lesions, blisters, or other signs of allergy, as these may be the first signs of a very serious skin reaction. See section 4.
Infections
Nurofen Cold & Flu may mask the symptoms of infections such as fever and pain. Therefore, Nurofen Cold & Flu may delay adequate treatment of the infection, which could increase the risk of complications. This has been observed in pneumonia caused by bacteria and in bacterial skin infections related to chickenpox. If you take this medicine while you have an infection and the symptoms persist or worsen, contact your doctor immediately.
Cases of posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES) and reversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndrome (RCVS) have been reported following the use of medicinal products containing pseudoephedrine.
PRES and RCVS are rare conditions that can result in reduced blood supply to the brain.
Stop using NUROFEN COLD & FLU immediately and seek immediate medical attention if you develop symptoms that could be signs of PRES or RCVS (see section 4 "Possible side effects" for symptoms).
For those who do sports
The use of the drug without therapeutic need constitutes doping and may still result in a positive doping test.
Children and adolescents
Do not give this medicine to children under 12 years of age.
In dehydrated adolescents there is a risk of altered renal function.
Possible side effects
Like all medicines, this medicine can cause side effects, although not everybody gets them.
Stop taking NUROFEN COLD & FLU immediately and see a doctor urgently if you develop symptoms that could be signs of posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES) or reversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndrome (RCVS). These include: sudden onset of severe headache, nausea, vomiting, confusion, seizures, and changes in vision.
