Using Dr. Hale's book, I have noticed that drugs often have
different trade names in Italian from those used, for instance, in the US.
The active ingredient, of course, remains the same, apart from slight
adaptations to Italian spelling (for instance Betamethasone becomes
Betametazone).
        Italian doctors often prescribe a painkiller called Aulin (active
ingredient: Nimesulide). I cannot find information about this anywhere.
Perhaps it is only marketed in Italy. Does anyone have any idea what it is -
and of course, whether it is compatible with breastfeeding?
