Re: Glen (# 13) 
Glen, you got it right for migraine sufferers! During my 10 yrs in Brazil it alleviated my pain much better, with little to no side effects, than any of the medication prescribed to me on the US. Helped with muscle spasms too! When we travel to Brasil to visit in-laws I always bring some back.

Metamizol is banned in US and UK. A 66 yr old Irish man died when prescribed the drug while travelling in Spain; it seriously depleted his white blood cells. Be careful when taking something from another country. However, I wish more drugs were over the counter in US.

The removal of metamizol-based products in US was completely about money and to promote Tylenol. Check pubmed for peer-reviewed journals comparing their safety profile. Tylenol/Advil, etc. are way more dangerous, involved in an alarming number of hospitalizations. The dosage of metamizol (dipyrone) in Neosaldina is safe enough. Those reports of agranulocytosis are nowhere near epidemiologically representative. It's a pity we don't have the same autonomy to choose here in US. Suffering from a migraine right now and can't take anything OTC here or my ulcers would cause way too much pain :(

Where do you get the Neosaldina? I have been looking for it everywhere and can't find it. I know it is sold over the counter in Brazil, but I can't find anywhere to get it in the US.

I love Dorflex and I have been taking it since my early teenage years. I have been diagnosed with sarcoidosis and feel tremendous pressure on my joints as well as swelling. Dorflex was helping me mange these problems and with less side effects than prednisone as well as Zathioprine... But I ran out of this medication. Hence why I came to the web. Prior to prednisone and Zathioprine, I was managing my attacks with Dorflex - just didn't know then that I had sarcodoise!! Bottom line Dorflex can be a great medication to help with inflammation, muscle pain, ETC. At the end of the day... All medication poses a percentage of risk and side effects... Not sure why Dorflex got the bad wrap and short end of the stick and black balled. But one thing I know... Big time pharmaceutical companies are interesting in one thing ROE - maybe that is the reason behind all the madness!! One medication versus two... Doesn't sound very profitable to pharmaceutical companies at the end of the day. Lol.

In USA and others Anglo-saxon countries like Australia, the only value what it is in the books.
In these countries should be compulsory to do 1 year of exchange learning in countries with different diseases and remedies..... specially tropical places.
Go for Doctors without borders and work there.....

I have been getting migraines since I was a kid and everything I took was pretty much useless (ie everything that the doctors would give me). It was just luck that a Brazilian introduced me to Neosaldina (ie metamizole) and it absolutely nailed it. I have been taking about 600mg 1-3 times per month for the last 13 years and never had any problem.

It is quite hilarious to see the blind defense of the almighty god FDA by Americans and the laisser-faire comments by the Brazilians. What a nice cultural shock. Unfortunately science is no black and white as most make believe. If would like some real facts though check out en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metamizole.

The substance used in the USA in the past to make Dorflex was Metamizole (Dipyrone). In Brazil they use a combination of Orphenadrine + Dipyrone + Caffeine. Maybe the dosage used in the USA was very high...
Everybody in Brazil loves Dorflex!!! It is very good to treat painful muscle spasms... I love it!!!!
