Contraindications
An absolute exclusion reason for the use of Sinupret Extract is hypersensitivity to one of the ingredients. Sinupret Extract must not be used even if you have known stomach or duodenal ulcers. Although stomach inflammation is not an absolute contraindication, it should be closely monitored if Sinupret Extract is to be taken. Sinupret Extract should not be used if you have a very rare inherited fructose intolerance or a glucose-galactose uptake disorder, as it contains various sugars in addition to the active ingredients.
