Good morning, I have a sick spine. The doctor prescribes me Dorete or other painkillers. Unfortunately, so far they all have titanium oxide. I take quite a lot of medication in total. Titanium oxide is carcinogenic. Are there any painkillers without titanium oxide? Is it possible to order in a pharmacy to make a painkiller without titanium oxide?

Titanium dioxide is an ingredient mainly found in the shells of tablets or capsules. Preparations that will not have it in their composition may be analgesics in the form of effervescent tablets, e.g. Efferalgan codeine (paracetamol + codeine), Zaldiar Effervescent (paracetamol + tramadol) or in the form of granules for suspension, e.g. Nimesil (nonmesulide). The above preparations are medicines available with a doctor's prescription. Over-the-counter medicines that do not contain titanium dioxide are, for example, Dexak SL (dexketoprofen) powder for oral suspension or Pyralgina (metamizole sodium) in tablet form. Recipe powders prepared in the pharmacy are closed in capsules or starch wafers, a given pharmacy must check whether the capsules or wafers it has include titanium dioxide. Pure recipe substances with analgesic effect are, for example, acetylsalicylic acid, metamizole sodium, ketoprofen. Making an analgesic in a pharmacy is possible on the basis of a doctor's prescription. I enclose materials that may be interesting: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/jakie-leki-przeciwbolowe-stosowac
