This is a description of a medication, specifically a diuretic and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID). It contains caffeine and magnesium salicylate, which is used for the temporary relief of menstrual and premenstrual symptoms, as well as minor pain and swelling associated with retaining water, abdominal distension, and fatigue. However, it should not be used by children or adolescents during chickenpox or the flu due to the risk of Reye's syndrome. It can also cause severe allergic reactions and stomach bleeding, especially in those over 60 years of age, with a history of bleeding or stomach ulcers, high blood pressure, liver or kidney disease, or taking anticoagulants or other drugs containing NSAIDs. The medication should not be used by those who have had an allergic reaction to any other analgesic or fever-reducing drug. Pregnant and nursing women should consult a healthcare professional before using this medication, which should be kept out of reach of children. Adults can take two pills every four to six hours, with a maximum of eight pills per day. Drinking six to eight glasses of water every day is also recommended. The Diurex tablets do not change the color of the urine. The medication includes additional information about its contents and a phone number to call in case of serious side effects.*
