The information on Canfora Medicine Guide (farmaciacanfora.com) is general and educational. It is not medical advice, it doesn’t create a doctor–patient or pharmacist–patient relationship, and it can’t take your individual health into account.
Not a substitute for professional advice
Medicines affect people differently depending on age, weight, kidney and liver function, pregnancy, other conditions and other medicines. Always read the leaflet that comes with your medicine, and ask your doctor or pharmacist before you start, stop, change or combine medicines, or if you’re unsure whether information on this site applies to you. Don’t delay seeking professional advice because of something you read here.
Emergencies and poisoning
If you think someone is seriously ill, call your local emergency number (000 in Australia, 911 in the US, 999 or 112 in the UK and Europe). For a suspected overdose or poisoning, contact a poisons information service: Australia 13 11 26, US Poison Control 1-800-222-1222, UK NHS 111.
Accuracy and currency
We base articles on official product information, regulators, national health services and published guidelines, and show when each article was last updated. Medical knowledge, product details and regulations change, and they differ between countries. Product names, strengths and pack sizes vary, so check the information supplied with your own medicine. Our editorial policy explains how we work and how to report an error.
Information for health professionals
Professional reference articles summarise common practice for educational purposes. They don’t replace local protocols, product information, clinical judgement or advice from your pharmacy department.
No sale of medicines
Despite its domain name, farmaciacanfora.com is not a pharmacy. We don’t sell, dispense or supply medicines, and we don’t provide prescriptions or consultations. Mentions of brands are for identification and don’t imply endorsement.
