Is it safe for an 80-year-old with high blood pressure and a stomach ulcer to take Crocin Flu & Cold tablets?

Asked by Female, 80 · 3 days ago

This medication contains a decongestant (phenylephrine) that can narrow blood vessels and raise your blood pressure, which is risky given your health history. While the paracetamol component in it is generally safe for stomach ulcers, the decongestant is not recommended for you. For your safety, please consult your doctor or pharmacist to find a safer, single-ingredient option, like plain paracetamol, to manage your symptoms.
