What is Flurbiprofen?

Strefen (flurbiprofen) is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory lozenge used for temporary relief of sore throat pain. This oromucosal lozenge delivers localized action for adults and children over 12 years. Suitable for occasional use, it provides targeted comfort without systemic effects.

What is Flurbiprofen used for?

Strefen is commonly used to relieve mild to moderate sore throat pain and discomfort. It may also help reduce inflammation associated with throat irritation. The lozenge dissolves slowly in the mouth, releasing flurbiprofen where it’s needed most. People often choose it for quick, targeted relief during colds or seasonal irritations.

What are the side effects of Flurbiprofen?

As the lozenge dissolves, many users notice a soothing effect in the throat within minutes. The active ingredient works locally to reduce irritation and discomfort. Some may feel a mild numbing sensation as the lozenge takes effect. Effects typically last several hours, allowing for continued comfort.

What precautions apply to Flurbiprofen?

Keep the lozenge in its original packaging until use to maintain freshness. Do not exceed the recommended number of lozenges per day. If irritation persists beyond a few days, discontinue use and consult a healthcare professional. Avoid chewing or swallowing the lozenge whole to ensure proper oromucosal absorption.

What does Flurbiprofen interact with?

Strefen may interact with other NSAIDs or blood thinners if used concurrently. Alcohol could increase throat irritation or reduce effectiveness. People taking certain medications for high blood pressure or heart conditions should use caution. Always inform a healthcare provider about all medications being used.
