Aleve film-coated tablets have not been tested for use in children and adolescents under 16 years of age.When is caution needed when taking Aleve?During treatment with Aleve film-coated tablets, ulcers in the mucous membranes of the upper gastrointestinal tract, rarely bleeding or, in isolated cases, perforation (perforation in the stomach or intestines) may occur. These complications can occur at any time during treatment, even without warning symptoms. To reduce this risk, the smallest effective dose should be used over the shortest possible duration of therapy. Contact your doctor if you have stomach pain and suspect it is related to taking the medicine.Elderly patients may be more sensitive to the medicine than younger adults. It is particularly important that elderly patients report any side effects to their doctor immediately.In the following situations, you may only take Aleve film-coated tablets if prescribed by a doctor and under medical supervision:if you are currently receiving medical treatment for a serious illness;if you have previously suffered from a stomach or duodenal ulcer;if you have already had a heart attack, stroke or vein thrombosis, or if you have risk factors (such as high blood pressure, diabetes (sugar diabetes), high blood fat levels, smoking); for certain painkillers with a similar effect, the so-called COX-2 inhibitors, an increased risk of heart attack and stroke has been found at high doses and/or long-term treatment. It is not known whether this increased risk also applies to Aleve film-coated tablets;if you have heart disease or kidney disease, if you are taking medicines for high blood pressure (e.g. diuretics, ACE inhibitors) or if you lose more fluids, e.g. through excessive sweating; taking Aleve film-coated tablets can affect the way your kidneys work, which can lead to an increase in blood pressure and/or fluid retention (oedema);if you have liver disease;if you are being treated with anticoagulants (blood thinners, anticoagulants) or have a blood clotting disorder;if you suffer from asthma;if you are taking anti-rheumatic medicines or other painkillers (e.g. acetylsalicylic acid, aspirin, ibuprofen);if you are taking medicines such as antiepileptics (phenytoin), medicines to treat diabetes (except insulin), water pills (eg furosemide), gout medicines (Probenecid), medicines containing sulphonamide to treat infections or medicines containing lithium or methotrexate.Simultaneously taking Aleve and low-dose acetylsalicylic acid (such as Aspirin Cardio) should be avoided and only done after consulting your doctor.During treatment with Aleve, exposure to the sun (UV radiation) on the skin should be avoided as far as possible (see also the section "What side effects can Aleve have?").Serious skin reactions have been reported in association with treatment with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. The highest risk of such reactions appears to be at the beginning of therapy. If you develop a skin rash, including fever, mucosal lesions, blisters, or any other sign of allergy, you should stop using Aleve and seek medical attention immediately, as these may be the first signs of a very serious skin reaction (see section 'What Aleve can have side effects?» ).This medicinal product contains less than 1 mmol sodium (23 mg) per film-coated tablet, ie essentially 'sodium-free'.Tell your doctor, pharmacist or druggist if yousuffer from other diseaseshave allergies oruse other medicines (including those you have bought yourself!).Aleve can impair the ability to react, the ability to drive and the ability to use tools or machines!Can Aleve be taken during pregnancy or breastfeeding?PregnancyYou should not take Aleve unless clearly necessary and directed by a doctor.

Lixim plaster 70 mg bag 7 pcs
LIXIM PATCH is a medicated patch containing the active ingredient etofenamate, a substance from the group of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) with analgesic, anti-inflammatory and decongestant properties. Etofenamate penetrates the skin and reaches the diseased tissue areas. LIXIM PATCH is used for the short-term symptomatic treatment of acute, uncomplicated ankle injuries in adults. Swissmedic-approved patient informationLixim® PatchDrossapharm AGWhat is LIXIM PATCH and when is it used?LIXIM PATCH is a medicated patch containing the active ingredient etofenamate, a substance from the group of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) with analgesic, anti-inflammatory and decongestant properties. Etofenamate penetrates the skin and reaches the diseased tissue areas. LIXIM PATCH is used for the short-term symptomatic treatment of acute, uncomplicated ankle injuries in adults. When is LIXIM PATCH not to be used?LIXIM PATCH is not to be used: •if you are hypersensitive to other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs); •for broken skin of varying degrees: weeping rash, eczema, infected lesion, burn or open wound; •in the last trimester of pregnancy; •during lactation; •in infants and young children; •If you are allergic to the active substance or an auxiliary substance according to the composition (see «What does LIXIM PATCH contain?»). When is caution required when using LIXIM PATCH?It is recommended to choose the shortest possible duration of use in order to minimize the occurrence of undesirable effects. Stop treatment immediately if a rash occurs after applying the patch. Only apply the patch to intact, healthy skin. The patch must not be placed on broken skin or open injuries. The patch should not come into contact with mucous membranes or eyes. Bronchospasm or rhinitis may occur in patients with asthma, allergic rhinitis, or nasal polyps. Allergic reactions are possible in patients with chronic nettle fever (urticaria). The absorption of etofenamate into the body when applied externally in the form of a patch is very low, which is why the risk of a clinically relevant drug interaction is negligible. Because the plaster still contains a relevant amount of the active substance after use, care must be taken to ensure that it is disposed of properly (see also the information under «What else needs to be taken into account»). Small children and pets should under no circumstances come into contact with the used patches. However, a relevant overdose by sucking or chewing used patches is unlikely. Due to the route of administration and the low systemic availability of the active ingredient, LIXIM PATCH is not expected to affect the ability to drive or use machines.
