Yendol 10 sachets

It is a medicine used for the relief of symptoms in catarrhal and flu-like conditions with fever, mild or moderate pain, headache and runny nose.

It comes in a pack containing 10 sachets.

Suitable for use in adults and adolescents over 16 years of age.

Take 1 sachet every 8 hours. Do not exceed the maximum of 5 sachets every 24 hours.

Do not use Yendol:

• In children under 16 years of age.

• If you are allergic to paracetamol, salicylamide, chlorphenamine, caffeine or any of the other ingredients of this medicinal product (listed in section 6).

• If you have ever had allergic reactions when taking acetylsalicylic acid, xanthines (such as aminophylline, theophylline, etc.), any non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (medicines used to relieve inflammation, pain and reduce fever) or a dye called tartrazine.

• If you are under 16 years of age, as the use of salicylates (such as salicylamide) has been linked to Reye's syndrome, a rare but serious condition.

• If you have chronic or recurrent ulcers in your upper intestine (duodenal ulcer) or stomach (gastric ulcer).

• If you have a history of bleeding (blood loss) or gastric perforation following treatment with aspirin, salicylamide or other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs.

• If you have asthma or nasal polyps associated with asthma that are induced or exacerbated by aspirin.

• If you suffer from blood clotting disorders such as haemophilia (blood clotting defect) or hypoprothrombinaemia (abnormal decrease in the amount of prothrombin in the blood, predisposing to bleeding), among others.

• If you have severe kidney and/or liver problems (severe kidney and/or liver failure).

• If you suffer from any liver disease (with or without liver failure) or viral hepatitis, as this increases the risk of hepatotoxicity of paracetamol.

• If you are being treated with medicines to prevent blood clotting (oral anticoagulants).

• If you are in the third trimester of pregnancy.

Stop taking this medicine and consult your doctor if you notice blood in your stools or vomit, or if you are very tired, as these may be symptoms of stomach bleeding.

Particular attention should be paid to the simultaneous use of this medicine with other medicines containing any of its active substances.
