Active substance

Ibuprofen

Compound

1 capsule contains: ibuprofen 400 mg.
Excipients: macrogol 600 - 335.3 mg, potassium hydroxide - 44.82 mg, water - 29.88 mg. Soft gelatin capsules, oval, translucent, red, with the identifying inscription “NUROFEN” in white. The contents of the capsules are a transparent liquid from colorless to light pink.

pharmachologic effect

The mechanism of action of ibuprofen, a derivative of propionic acid from the group of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), is due to inhibition of the synthesis of prostaglandins - mediators of pain, inflammation and hyperthermic reaction. Indiscriminately blocks COX-1 and COX-2, as a result of which it inhibits the synthesis of prostaglandins. It has a rapid, targeted effect against pain (analgesic), antipyretic and anti-inflammatory effects. In addition, ibuprofen reversibly inhibits platelet aggregation.

Mode of application

Read the instructions carefully before taking the drug. For oral administration. For short term use only. Adults and children over 12 years of age: 200 mg orally (1 capsule) 3-4 times a day. The capsule is taken without chewing with water. The interval between doses of the drug should be 6-8 hours. To achieve a faster therapeutic effect in adults, the dose can be increased to 2 capsules (400 mg) up to 3 times a day. The maximum daily dose is 1200 mg. The maximum daily dose for children 12-17 years old is 1000 mg. If symptoms persist or worsen after taking the drug for 2-3 days, you should stop treatment and consult a doctor.

Interaction

The simultaneous use of ibuprofen with the following drugs Acetylsalicylic acid should be avoided: with the exception of low doses of acetylsalicylic acid (no more than 75 mg / day) prescribed by a doctor, since combined use may increase the risk of side effects. With simultaneous use, ibuprofen reduces the anti-inflammatory and antiplatelet effect of acetylsalicylic acid (an increase in the incidence of acute coronary insufficiency in patients receiving small doses of acetylsalicylic acid as an antiplatelet agent is possible after starting ibuprofen). Other NSAIDs, in particular selective COX-2 inhibitors: the simultaneous use of two or more drugs from the NSAID group should be avoided due to a possible increased risk of side effects. Use with caution concomitantly with the following drugs Anticoagulants and thrombolytic drugs: NSAIDs may enhance the effect of anticoagulants, in particular warfarin and thrombolytic drugs. Antihypertensives (ACE inhibitors and angiotensin II antagonists) and diuretics: NSAIDs may reduce the effectiveness of drugs in these groups. Diuretics and ACE inhibitors may increase the nephrotoxicity of NSAIDs. GCS: increased risk of gastrointestinal ulcers and gastrointestinal bleeding. Antiplatelet agents and selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors: increased risk of gastrointestinal bleeding. Cardiac glycosides: simultaneous administration of NSAIDs and cardiac glycosides can lead to worsening heart failure, a decrease in glomerular filtration rate and an increase in the concentration of cardiac glycosides in the blood plasma. Lithium preparations: there is evidence of the likelihood of an increase in the concentration of lithium in the blood plasma during the use of NSAIDs. Methotrexate: there is evidence of the likelihood of an increase in the concentration of methotrexate in the blood plasma during the use of NSAIDs. Cyclosporine: increased risk of nephrotoxicity when NSAIDs are administered concomitantly with cyclosporine. Mifepristone: NSAIDs should be started no earlier than 8 to 12 days after taking mifepristone, as NSAIDs may reduce the effectiveness of mifepristone. Tacrolimus: When NSAIDs and tacrolimus are coadministered, the risk of nephrotoxicity may increase. Zidovudine: Concomitant use of NSAIDs and zidovudine may result in increased hematotoxicity. There is evidence of an increased risk of hemarthrosis and hematomas in HIV-positive patients with hemophilia who received concomitant treatment with zidovudine and ibuprofen. Quinolone antibiotics: In patients receiving concomitant treatment with NSAIDs and quinolone antibiotics, the risk of seizures may increase. Cefamandole, cefoperazone, cefotetan, valproic acid, plicamycin: increased incidence of hypoprothrombinemia. Drugs that block tubular secretion: decreased excretion and increased plasma concentrations of ibuprofen. Inducers of microsomal oxidation (phenytoin, ethanol, barbiturates, rifampicin, phenylbutazone, tricyclic antidepressants): increased production of hydroxylated active metabolites, increased risk of developing severe intoxications. Microsomal oxidation inhibitors: reducing the risk of hepatotoxicity. Oral hypoglycemic drugs, sulfonylurea derivatives and insulin: enhanced effect. Antacids and cholestyramine: decreased absorption. Caffeine: increased analgesic effect.

Side effect

The risk of side effects can be minimized if the drug is taken in a short course, at the minimum effective dose required to eliminate symptoms. Side effects are predominantly dose-dependent. The following adverse reactions were observed with short-term use of ibuprofen in doses not exceeding 1200 mg/day (6 capsules). When treating chronic conditions and with long-term use, other adverse reactions may occur.

Use during pregnancy and breastfeeding The use of the drug in the third trimester of pregnancy is contraindicated. You should avoid using the drug in the first and second trimesters of pregnancy; if you need to take the drug, you should consult your doctor. There is evidence that ibuprofen can pass into breast milk in small quantities without any adverse effects on the health of the nursing infant, so there is usually no need to stop breastfeeding when taken for a short period of time. If long-term use of the drug is necessary, you should consult a doctor to decide whether to stop breastfeeding for the period of use of the drug. Information for women planning pregnancy: these drugs suppress COX and prostaglandin synthesis, affect ovulation, disrupting female reproductive function (reversible after discontinuation of treatment).

Overdose

In children, overdose symptoms may occur after ingestion of more than 400 mg/kg body weight of vine. In adults, the dose-dependent effect of overdose is less pronounced. T1/2 of the drug in case of overdose is 1.5-3 hours. Symptoms: nausea, vomiting, pain in the epigastric region or, less commonly, diarrhea, tinnitus, headache and gastrointestinal bleeding. In more severe cases, manifestations from the central nervous system are observed: drowsiness, rarely - agitation, convulsions, disorientation, coma. In cases of severe poisoning, metabolic acidosis and an increase in prothrombin time, renal failure, liver tissue damage, decreased blood pressure, respiratory depression and cyanosis may develop. In patients with bronchial asthma, exacerbation of this disease is possible. Treatment: symptomatic, with mandatory maintenance of airway patency, monitoring of ECG and vital signs until the patient’s condition is normalized. Oral use of activated charcoal or gastric lavage is recommended within 1 hour after taking a potentially toxic dose of ibuprofen. If ibuprofen has already been absorbed, an alkaline drink may be prescribed in order to eliminate the acidic derivative of ibuprofen by the kidneys, forced diuresis. Frequent or prolonged seizures should be treated with IV diazepam or lorazepam. If bronchial asthma worsens, the use of bronchodilators is recommended.

special instructions

It is recommended to take the drug for the shortest possible course and in the minimum effective dose necessary to eliminate symptoms. During long-term treatment, monitoring of the peripheral blood picture and the functional state of the liver and kidneys is necessary. When symptoms of gastropathy appear, careful monitoring is indicated, including esophagogastroduodenoscopy, a complete blood count (hemoglobin determination), and a stool test for occult blood. If it is necessary to determine 17-ketosteroids, the drug should be discontinued 48 hours before the study. During the treatment period, ethanol intake is not recommended. Patients with renal failure should consult a doctor before using the drug, as there is a risk of deterioration in the functional state of the kidneys. Patients with arterial hypertension, incl. history, and/or chronic heart failure, you should consult your doctor before using the drug, since the drug may cause fluid retention, increased blood pressure and edema. Effects on the ability to drive vehicles and operate machinery Patients who experience dizziness, drowsiness, lethargy, or visual disturbances when taking ibuprofen should avoid driving vehicles or operating machinery.

Nurofen Express forte caps. 400 mg No. 20

Indications

Symptomatic treatment as an anti-inflammatory and antipyretic agent: inflammatory and degenerative diseases of the joints and spine (including rheumatic and rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, osteoarthritis), articular syndrome with exacerbation of gout, psoriatic arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, tendinitis, bursitis, radiculitis , traumatic inflammation of soft tissues and the musculoskeletal system. Neuralgia, myalgia, pain syndrome due to infectious and inflammatory diseases of the ENT organs, adnexitis, algodismenorrhea, headache and toothache. Fever in infectious and inflammatory diseases, childhood infections, post-vaccination reactions in children (in appropriate dosage forms).

pharmachologic effect

NSAIDs, a derivative of phenylpropionic acid. It has anti-inflammatory, analgesic and antipyretic effects.

The mechanism of action is associated with inhibition of the activity of COX, the main enzyme in the metabolism of arachidonic acid, which is a precursor of prostaglandins, which play a major role in the pathogenesis of inflammation, pain and fever. The analgesic effect is due to both peripheral (indirectly, through suppression of prostaglandin synthesis) and central mechanisms (inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis in the central and peripheral nervous system). Suppresses platelet aggregation.

Drug interactions

With simultaneous use, ibuprofen reduces the effect of antihypertensive drugs (ACE inhibitors, beta-blockers), diuretics (furosemide, hydrochlorothiazide).

When used simultaneously with anticoagulants, their effect may be enhanced.

When used simultaneously with GCS, the risk of side effects from the gastrointestinal tract increases.

When used simultaneously, ibuprofen can displace indirect anticoagulants (acenocoumarol), hydantoin derivatives (phenytoin), and oral hypoglycemic drugs, sulfonylurea derivatives, from compounds with blood plasma proteins.

When used simultaneously with amlodipine, a slight decrease in the antihypertensive effect of amlodipine is possible; with acetylsalicylic acid - the concentration of ibuprofen in the blood plasma decreases; with baclofen - a case of increased toxic effects of baclofen has been described.

When used simultaneously with warfarin, an increase in bleeding time is possible; microhematuria and hematomas were also observed; with captopril - the antihypertensive effect of captopril may be reduced; with cholestyramine - a moderate decrease in the absorption of ibuprofen.

When used simultaneously with lithium carbonate, the concentration of lithium in the blood plasma increases.

When used simultaneously with magnesium hydroxide, the initial absorption of ibuprofen increases; with methotrexate - the toxicity of methotrexate increases.

The simultaneous use of NSAIDs and cardiac glycosides can lead to worsening heart failure, a decrease in glomerular filtration rate and an increase in the concentration of cardiac glycosides in the blood plasma.

There is evidence of the likelihood of an increase in the concentration of methotrexate in the blood plasma during the use of NSAIDs.

With simultaneous use of NSAIDs and cyclosporine, the risk of nephrotoxicity increases.

NSAIDs may reduce the effectiveness of mifepristone, so taking NSAIDs should be started no earlier than 8-12 days after stopping mifepristone.

Concomitant use of NSAIDs and tacrolimus may increase the risk of nephrotoxicity.

Concomitant use of NSAIDs and zidovudine may lead to increased hematotoxicity. There is evidence of an increased risk of hemarthrosis and hematomas in HIV-positive patients with hemophilia who received concomitant treatment with zidovudine and ibuprofen.

In patients receiving concomitant treatment with NSAIDs and quinolone antibiotics, the risk of seizures may increase.

In patients receiving concomitant NSAIDs and myelotoxic drugs, hematotoxicity increases.

With the simultaneous use of ibuprofen and cefamandole, cefoperazone, cefotetan, valproic acid, plicamycin, the incidence of hypoprothrombinemia increases.

With the simultaneous use of ibuprofen and drugs that block tubular secretion, there is a decrease in excretion and an increase in plasma concentration of ibuprofen.

With the simultaneous use of ibuprofen and inducers of microsomal oxidation (phenytoin, ethanol, barbiturates, rifampicin, phenylbutazone, tricyclic antidepressants), there is an increase in the production of hydroxylated active metabolites and an increased risk of developing severe intoxications.

Dosage regimen
