Hi Alex,

Based on my research, Nordinet Adulto contains the following active ingredients:
Acetanilide 100 mg + Aspirin 400 mg + Caffeine 50 mg + Phenacetin 150 mg

I haven't found much information on the drug as a whole, but I figured that looking into the indications of each active ingredient could help us better determine what it may be used for.

Acetanilide - has analgesic as well as antipyretic properties (NOTE: this drug is considered to have a high toxicity)

Aspirin - has analgesic, fever reducing, and anti-inflammatory properties

Caffeine - we know what this does in general as far as stimulation goes, but studies show that it may also help alleviate acute headaches in the right amount.

Phenacetin - this medication was formerly used as a pain killer, but was reportedly withdrawn from the US market back in the 1980's due to serious adverse effects, such as cancer and neuropathy.

Hopefully this info helps to answer your question. Personally, I probably wouldn't risk taking something with such questionable ingredients, but I realize people still have to do whatever they need to do for relief in times of need. I'd just be safe about it if you can.
