Hola a todos:
Estoy con la parte de drogas de un seguro médico. Puede ser que "pe" sea fenilefrina? (Phenylephrine)

Muchas gracias!

crema rectal de pramoxina-pseudoefedrina-glicerina-vaselina/petrolato


Explanation:
En este caso, pe, podría ser la abreviatura en inglés de pseudoefedrina

Para este tipo de cremas o medicamentos, por lo general, se emplea la efedrina, pero también se podría emplear la pseudoefedrina. ¿Es un medicamento de última generación?

Bueno, espero que te sirva.

disagree  Mireia Oliva Solé: También lo pensé, pero la efedrina se utiliza como descongestionador nasal, por tanto no tendría sentido en una crema rectal. En cambio la fenilefrina es un componente muy utilizado en este tipo de fármaco.
