What does this imprint mean?

Active ingredient

Phenazopyridine

Uses and warnings

No boxed warning. Contraindicated "in patients with renal insufficiency, severe liver disease, severe hepatitis or pyelonephritis of pregnancy." The label also notes phenazopyridine "is reasonably anticipated to be a human carcinogen based on sufficient evidence of carcinogenicity in experimental animals," while noting "inadequate evidence for the carcinogenicity of phenazopyridine hydrochloride in humans."

Indicated for "symptomatic relief of pain, burning, urgency frequency, and other discomforts arising from irritation of the mucosa of the lower urinary tract" caused by infection, trauma, surgery, endoscopic procedures, or catheterization. The label cautions that "the use of phenazopyridine for relief of symptoms should not delay definitive diagnosis" of the underlying condition, and treatment should generally be limited to a few days.
