Contraindications:
Do not take Strepsils Intensive Honey and Lemon:
- if you are allergic (hypersensitive) to flurbiprofen, other NSAIDs, or any of the other ingredients of the medicine.

Precautions:
Before taking Strepsils Intensive Honey and Lemon, consult your doctor or pharmacist.

Pregnancy, breastfeeding, and fertility:
If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, think you may be pregnant or are planning to have a baby, ask your doctor or pharmacist for advice before taking this medicine.

During the first 5 months of pregnancy, NSAIDs may be used for the shortest possible period, on medical recommendation, if absolutely necessary. The use of NSAIDs in the last 4 months of pregnancy can lead to premature closure of the ductus arteriosus in the fetus and a persistent increase in pulmonary pressure in the newborn. Therefore, the administration of Strepsils Intensive Honey and Lemon in the last 4 months of pregnancy is contraindicated.
Flurbiprofen is excreted in breast milk in very low concentrations; as a precautionary measure, administration during breastfeeding is recommended to be avoided.

There is some evidence that medicines that inhibit cyclo-oxygenase/prostaglandin synthesis may affect female fertility by an effect on ovulation. This is reversible upon discontinuation of treatment.

Driving and using machines:
Dizziness or visual disturbances may sometimes occur after taking Strepsils Intensive Honey and Lemon; in this situation, it is not recommended to drive vehicles or operate machinery.

- The active substance is flurbiprofen. Each lozenge contains 8.75 mg flurbiprofen.
