Substance in Nurofen, could take it off the market. Side effects are rare but deadly
#1

Several medications, including Sudafed and Nurofen, may have worrisome side effects. UK authorities want to take them off the market or make them available only on prescription after rare but deadly side effects were discovered.

The substance that produces the adverse effects is pseudoephedrine.

Health officials are alarmed by reports of patients suffering from two rare conditions associated with these pseudoephedrine-containing drugs. Both conditions can cause strokes.

Pseudoephedrine works by narrowing the inflamed blood vessels in the sinuses — which cause nasal congestion in the first place.
