INDICES> Mexican product called Sinalan(R?)
------------------------------------------------------

Good Day,

Would someone be able to help me out by identifying this Mexican product?  A
patient who took this while in Mexico wants to know if it (or an equivalent)
is available in Canada.
I've check my available resources - Martindales, Negwer, Poisindex(R),
Medline(R), Embase(R), even a Mexican compendium (Diccionario de
Especialidades Farmaceuticas 46th ed. 2000) but none mention this product.
A Google search turns up numerous pages in Spanish, but many don't appear to
be medically-related.  One looks like a news website and mentions Sinalan on
a sidebar article:
(http://www.elcorreogallego.es/periodico/20010608/Galicia/N40522.asp) but
unfortunately my Spanish was never good enough to translate what's printed.
Besides, the article doesn't look like it mentions anything about active
ingredients.

Thank you in advance to any who can assist me.
