Warnings and precautions

Consult your doctor or pharmacist beforestarting to take Sinusvicks:

• if you have or have had asthma or allergic disease; risk of an asthma attack,
• if your doctor has informed you that you have a blood coagulation disorder,
• if you have mild or moderate high blood pressure and well-controlled heart failure and heart disease,

-if you have psychosis,

• if you have a history of gastrointestinal disorders (such as ulcerative colitis, Crohn's disease),
• if you have mild or moderate liver or kidney problems,
• if you are taking medications for migraine,
• if you have an infection; see the section "Infections" below.

Pain-relieving/anti-inflammatory medications like ibuprofen may be associated with a small increased risk of having a heart attack or stroke, especially when used in high doses. Do not exceed the recommended dose or duration of treatment.

There have been reports of posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES) and reversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndrome (RCVS) after the use of medications containing pseudoephedrine. PRES and RCVS are rare diseases that may involve reduced blood flow to the brain. Stop using Sinusvicks immediately and seek immediate medical attention if you experience symptoms that may be signs of PRES or RCVS (to learn about the symptoms, see section 4 "Possible side effects").

There have been reports of allergic reaction symptoms to this medicine, such as respiratory problems, facial swelling, and chest pain with ibuprofen. Stop taking Sinusvicks immediately and contact your doctor or seek emergency medical attention if you notice any of these symptoms.

Reduced blood flow to the optic nerve can occur with Sinusvicks. If you develop sudden vision loss, stop taking Sinusvicks and contact your doctor or seek immediate medical attention. See section 4.

Sudden abdominal pain or rectal bleeding may occur with the use of Sinusvicks due to inflammation of the colon (ischemic colitis). If these gastrointestinal symptoms appear, stop taking Sinusvicks and contact your doctor or seek immediate medical attention. See section 4.

Infections

Sinusvicks may hide the signs of an infection, such as fever and pain. Consequently, Sinusvicks may delay the appropriate treatment of the infection, which may increase the risk of complications. This has been observed in bacterial pneumonia and bacterial skin infections related to chickenpox. If you take this medicine while you have an infection and the symptoms of the infection persist or worsen, consult a doctor without delay.

You should consult your doctor about your treatment before taking Sinusvicks if:

? You have heart problems, including heart failure, angina (chest pain), or if you have had a heart attack, bypass surgery, peripheral artery disease (circulation problems in the legs or feet due to narrowing or blockage of the arteries), or any type of stroke (including a "mini-stroke" or transient ischemic attack "TIA").

? You have high blood pressure, diabetes, or high cholesterol, have a family history of heart disease or stroke, or if you are a smoker.

Avoid consuming alcohol during treatment.

Ibuprofen may cause a severe allergic reaction, especially in people allergic to aspirin. Symptoms may include: hives, facial swelling, asthma (wheezing), and shock. Severe skin reactions including exfoliative dermatitis, erythema multiforme, Stevens-Johnson syndrome, toxic epidermal necrolysis, drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS), and acute generalized exanthematous pustulosis (AGEP) have been reported. Severe skin reactions associated with Sinusvicks treatment have been reported. Stop taking Sinusvicks and see a doctor immediately if you develop any skin rash, mucous membrane lesions, blisters, or other signs of allergy, as these may be the first signs of a severe skin reaction. See section 4.

There is a risk of kidney problems in dehydrated adolescents.

Consult your doctor if it worsens or if the symptoms persist.

Children and adolescents

Sinusvicks is contraindicated in children and adolescents under 15 years of age.

Taking Sinusvicks with other medicines

Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking, have recently taken, or might take any other medicines.

Do not take Sinusvicks if you are taking:

• acetylsalicylic acid,
• other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs),
• other analgesics or fever-reducing medications,
• if you have been treated with monoamine oxidase inhibitors in the last 2 weeks (used to treat Parkinson's disease or depression),
• other vasoconstrictor agents used as nasal decongestants (e.g., phenylpropanolamine, phenylephrine, and ephedrine, administered orally and nasally),
• medications that prevent blood clotting, such as anticoagulants or antiplatelet agents (e.g., aspirin/acetylsalicylic acid, warfarin, ticlopidine),
• medications that may increase the risk of stomach ulcers or bleeding, such as steroids, antidepressants of the SSRI type (e.g., fluoxetine, paroxetine), or NSAIDs, including aspirin,
• lithium,
• methotrexate at high doses (more than 20 mg per week).

Sinusvicks may affect or be affected by other medicines. For example:

• anticoagulant medications (e.g., to treat circulation problems/prevent blood clotting, e.g., acetylsalicylic acid, warfarin, and ticlopidine),
• medications that lower high blood pressure (e.g., ACE inhibitors like captopril, beta-blockers like atenolol, and angiotensin II receptor antagonists like losartan, guanethidine, reserpine, and methyldopa),
• medications that may increase the risk of stomach ulcers or bleeding, such as steroids, selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) (e.g., fluoxetine, paroxetine), or NSAIDs, including acetylsalicylic acid and selective cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) inhibitors,
• medications for heart rhythm disorders, angina, heart failure, or fluid retention (cardiac glycosides, quinidine) since Sinusvicks may reduce their effects or increase the risk of arrhythmias, hypertension, or worsen renal function,
• cyclosporin (an immunosuppressant) as it may increase the risk of renal function deterioration,
• medications for treating depression (lithium, tricyclic antidepressants) that may increase the risk of adverse reactions,
• concomitant use of phenytoin may increase the plasma levels of this active ingredient. If used correctly, no monitoring of phenytoin plasma levels is required, as a general rule (max. during 5 days).
• other decongestants or appetite-reducing medications as they may increase the risk of adverse effects,
• reversible inhibitors of monoamine oxidase A (RIMAs, used in the treatment of depression), linezolid (an antibiotic), and ergot alkaloids (used in the treatment of Parkinson's disease) may increase the risk of hypertension,
• probenecid or sulfinpyrazone may delay the excretion of ibuprofen,
• sulfonylureas (antidiabetics): although interactions with ibuprofen have not been described, it is recommended as a precaution when taken concomitantly to monitor blood glucose levels,
• diuretic medications (to increase urination),
• methotrexate at high doses (20 mg per week), as it may increase the effect of methotrexate,
• quinolone antibiotics due to the increased risk of seizures,
• tacrolimus and trimethoprim, corticosteroids,
• migraine medications,
• zidovudine (for HIV treatment),
• terpene derivatives, clobutinol, atropine-like substances, and local anesthetics may increase the risk of seizures,
• injectable heparin or preparations containing Ginkgo biloba as it increases the risk of bleeding.

Other medications may also affect or be affected by treatment with Sinusvicks. Therefore, you should always consult your doctor or pharmacist before using Sinusvicks with other medications.

Due to the administration of pseudoephedrine, acute hypertension may occur in the perioperative period. Therefore, discontinue treatment with Sinusvicks several days before surgery and inform your anesthesiologist.

Taking Sinusvicks with food and drinks

Swallow the tablets with water, preferably with a full stomach.

Pregnancy, breastfeeding, and fertility

If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, think you may be pregnant, or plan to become pregnant, consult your doctor or pharmacist before using this medicine.

Pregnancy:

Sinusvicks is contraindicated during pregnancy. The active ingredients, ibuprofen and pseudoephedrine, may cause serious problems in unborn babies. NSAIDs may cause kidney and heart problems in your baby. It may affect the mother's and baby's tendency to bleed and make labor longer than expected. From the 20th week of pregnancy, NSAIDs may cause kidney problems in the fetus, which may lead to low levels of amniotic fluid surrounding the baby (oligohydramnios) or narrowing of a blood vessel (ductus arteriosus) in the baby's heart.

Breastfeeding:

It has been shown that the active ingredients, ibuprofen and pseudoephedrine, are present in breastfed babies of women who have taken them.

Therefore, Sinusvicks should not be taken during breastfeeding.

Fertility:

Sinusvicks contains ibuprofen, which belongs to a group of medicines (NSAIDs) that may impair fertility in women. This effect is reversible upon discontinuation of treatment.

Driving and using machines

Sinusvicks has not shown effects on the ability to drive or use machines. However, dizziness and hallucinations may occur.

Sinusvicks contains sodium.Patients on low-sodium diets should be aware that this medicine contains 1.65 mg of sodium per tablet.
