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.

First, there is no evidence that titanium dioxide taken orally is carcinogenic. Second, there is no evidence that it damages intestinal villi in humans. Let's start with the fact that titanium dioxide is not soluble in water and does not react under normal conditions with any substance that builds our body. It is practically not absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract. It captures ultraviolet radiation, thanks to which it protects the active substance of the drug from being broken down by UV, but also in the case of cosmetics, it protects against sunburn. However, like almost all substances that absorb UV, it can produce free radicals when exposed to this UV. And these can damage the bottom. Fortunately, there is no UV light in the intestines in humans. And this is basically where the discussion should end. But this is not how bureaucracy works. In the EU, you have to prove that what goes into food is safe. When asked, the organization responsible for assessing it said that it could not say because under the influence of UV it produces free radicals, and these can damage DNA, so theoretically it can be carcinogenic. Admittedly, it is almost not absorbed, there are a lot of natural substances that work in a similar way and all in all, the fact that by capturing UV they protect cells rather than that they release free radicals, but all in all, who knows. All in all, in the worst-case scenario, it would be a bit photosensitized if by some miracle it was absorbed in significant amounts, but who. Knows. Of course, there are brilliant scientists who have injected titanium dioxide into cell lines of intestinal cells with UV light – they found that they damage them. But of course, the question is where the UV light in the intestines comes from. Apparently, on albino mice with artificially induced intestinal disease, the addition of titanium dioxide also harmed. But since you can't protect safety beyond any doubt, you have to ban it. The problem is that there is no safer substance with similar properties. So in the case of drugs, temporary permission was given until something better was found. They are unlikely to find anything better, so we are probably doomed to the end of our lives that almost every drug in the form of a tablet will contain this "carcinogenic" dioxide.
Remark! THIS PRODUCT CONTAINS TITANIUM DIOXIDE! (E171)an ingredient with carcinogenic/genotoxic potential (destroying the DNA strand) and destroying intestinal villi (intestines, your second brain)An ingredient found in many drugs! (see tablet weight composition/excipients, not active substances!)and other popular products (e.g. toothpastes (e.g. Aquafresh, Himalaya, Lacalut, Blanx, Parodontax), cosmetics, face/sun creams, almost all bar soaps - e.g. Arko, Bambino, Palmolive, Luksja, Dove (it's nice to inhale in a hot bath), tattoo inks. Read about titanium dioxide and why the European Union is phasing it out, in France a white dye that has been banned for ok.3lat.To. The designation is composed of: "titanium dioxide", "titanium dioxide", "E171", "CI77891" - very often, see e.g. soap, "titanium white", "Titanium Dioxide".
