Ingredients
This medicine contains 15 mg aspartame in each tablet. Aspartame is a source of phenylalanine which may be harmful to people with phenylketonuria (PKU), a rare genetic disorder in which phenylalanine builds up because the body cannot remove it properly. This medicine contains less than 1 mmol sodium (23 mg) per dose. That is to say essentially 'sodium-free'.
