Special warnings

The serum levels achieved with Flector Unidie were significantly lower than those obtained by oral administration but with strong individual variability, so the onset of systemic side effects, especially at the gastrointestinal level, cannot be excluded. Analgesics, antipyretics, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, including piroxicam, can cause hypersensitivity reactions, potentially serious even in subjects not previously exposed to this type of drug. These include asthma attacks, skin rashes, allergic rhinitis and anaphylactic-type reactions. Flector Unidie patches should be used with caution in subjects with chronic obstructive bronchial diseases, allergic rhinitis or inflammation of the nasal mucosa (nasal polyps) in whom asthmatic attacks or localized inflammatory reactions of the skin and mucosa (Quincke's edema) are more frequent. Use caution in patients with a history of peptic ulcer, in patients with a history of gastrointestinal bleeding not secondary to the administration of NSAIDs or with other bleeding disorders, in patients with Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis, with severe liver or kidney dysfunction or with heart failure. Prolonged or repeated use of products for cutaneous use may give rise to sensitization phenomena. In the presence of hypersensitivity reactions, it is necessary to interrupt the therapy. Caution should be exercised in the treatment of elderly patients who are generally more predisposed to adverse events. After a short therapy without results, consult your doctor. To avoid possible hypersensitivity or photosensitivity phenomena, avoid exposure to direct sunlight. Keep this medicine out of the sight and reach of children.
