Salflex Precautions
Tell your doctor your medical history, especially of anemia, diabetes, gout, bleeding problems, kidney, liver or heart disease, alcohol use, ulcers or other stomach problems and of any allergies you may have. SALFLEX is similar to aspirin. Children and teenagers should not take SALFLEX if they have chickenpox, influenza or any undiagnosed illness without first consulting a doctor about Reye's syndrome, a rare but serious illness. This medicine may cause stomach bleeding. Daily use of alcohol, especially when combined with this medicine, may increase your risk for stomach bleeding. Check with your doctor or pharmacist for more information. Salsalate should be used only when clearly needed during pregnancy. Discuss the risks and benefits with your doctor. Drugs closely related to salsalate are excreted into breast milk. High dose, long-term use of aspirin-related drugs are not recommended while breast-feeding. Consult your doctor before breast-feeding.
Salflex Drug Interactions
Tell your doctor of all medications you may use (both prescription and nonprescription), especially), "blood thinners" (anticoagulants and antiplatelet/pain medicines such as heparins, warfarin, NSAIDs-including aspirin, ibuprofen), oral anti-diabetic drugs, corticosteroids (e.g., prednisone), methotrexate and drugs used for gout (e.g., probenecid). It is important to carefully read all labels of other medicines to insure they do not also contain aspirin or aspirin-like drugs. Ingesting too much aspirin can have undesirable effects. Ask your doctor or pharmacist if you are uncertain about the content of your medicines. Do not start or stop any medicine without doctor or pharmacist approval.
Salflex Overdose
