Dorflex is great. Brasil is great, you can self medicate yourself all you want. No "Nanny State" like Big Brother USA looking over your shoulder all the time. Another great headache/hangover cure is Engov...

Of course the girl died; she was just 18 months old! in healthy adults, DORFLEX is safe, and has been used for many years in a lot of countries. FDA bannes many medication, but they allow doctors in the US to give us a lot of narcotics for pain, which always made more sick than I was before.

The FDA banned metamizole in 1977 because of a rare but serious side effect of agranulocytosis (a severe decrease in white blood cells) which can lead to increased risk of infection and even death. In 1999, in a very public case, Selene Seguros Rios, an 18-moth old girl died after receiving metamizole. Although many countries, Brazil included, still use products containing metamizole because of its strong analgesic and fever reducing properties, the benefits are not worth the risks. Please be cautious when buying medications from other countries. Do your research and consult a physician. Just because it is over the counter in some countries, it doesn't mean it's safe!!!

When I was in Brazel on vacation - I got such a trouble headache - Went to a Drug there and they gave me Dorflex - It was the best pill I had every had for the headache. Is it available here in the US - If it is a safe pill to take while in in another county - The Brazil poeple take it and no side effects and is not habit forming.

From what I was able to gather Dorflex active ingredients are:
-Caffeine
-Metamizole
-Orphenadrine Citrate
From what I was able to gather Dorflex is used to relieve pain associated with muscle contractions resulting from trauma and tension headaches.
Do you have any more questions or information to add? Please post back if you do.
