Please see your doctor or pharmacist before taking Sudafed Blocked Nose & Sinus Capsules if you:

  • Are pregnant or breastfeeding.
  • Suffer from kidney or liver problems, including alcoholic liver disease or have alcohol dependence.
  • Have diabetes.
  • Have circulatory disorders such as a condition called Raynaud's Phenomenon, which results from poor circulation in the fingers and toes.

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

  • Medicines to treat high cholesterol levels which reduce the amount of fat in the blood such as colestyramine.
  • Medicines to control feeling sick or being sick such as metoclopramide or domperidone.
  • Medicines called anti-coagulants, which are used to thin the blood such as warfarin or other coumarins - you may take occasional doses of paracetamol but should consult your doctor if you need to take it on a regular basis.
  • Barbiturates (for epilepsy or to help you sleep), such as phenobarbitone.
  • Medicines to treat migraines such as ergotamine or methysergide.
  • Medicines to lower blood pressure, treat heart or circulatory problems such as beta blockers (e.g. atenolol) or vasodilators (e.g. hydralazine).
  • Other decongestant drugs such as ephedrine or xylometazoline.
  • Flucloxacillin (antibiotic), due to a serious risk of blood and fluid abnormality (high anion gap metabolic acidosis) that must have urgent treatment and which may occur particularly in case of severe renal impairment, sepsis (when bacteria and their toxins circulate in the blood leading to organ damage), malnutrition, chronic alcoholism, and if the maximum daily doses of paracetamol are used.
