Ibuprofen, 100 mg/5 ml orange 200 g suspension

Pharmacotherapeutic group: Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID)

ATC code: M01AE01

Pharmacodynamics:

The mechanism of action of ibuprofen propionic acid derivative from the group of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) is due to the inhibition of the synthesis of prostaglandins – mediators of pain inflammation and hyperthermia. Indiscriminately blocks cyclooxygenase 1 (COX-1) and cyclooxygenase 2 (COX-2), and thus inhibits the synthesis of prostaglandins. In addition ibuprofen reversibly inhibits platelet aggregation. It has analgesic, antipyretic and anti-inflammatory effects. The analgesic effect is most pronounced for pain of an inflammatory nature. The action of the drug lasts up to 8 hours.

Pharmacokinetics:

Absorption – fast and almost completely absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract (gastrointestinal tract) (binding to blood plasma proteins – 90%). After taking the drug on an empty stomach in adults ibuprofen is detected in blood plasma after 15 minutes the maximum concentration (Cmax) of ibuprofen in blood plasma is reached after 60 minutes. Taking the drug with food can increase the time to reach maximum concentration (TCmax) up to 1-2 hours. The half-life (T1/2) is 2 hours. Slowly penetrates into the joint cavity and stays in synovial fluid producing higher concentrations in synovial fluid than in blood plasma. After absorption, about 60% of the pharmacologically inactive R-form is slowly transformed into the active S-form. It is metabolized in the liver. It is excreted by kidneys (not more than 1% unchanged) and to a lesser extent with bile.

In limited studies ibuprofen was found in very low concentrations in breast milk.

In children under 6 months of age: 25 ml (50 mg) of the drug. If necessary, another 25 ml (50 mg) after 6 hours. Do not use more than 5 ml (100 mg) within 24 hours.

The drug should only be used according to the indication and route of administration and in the dose stated in the instructions.

Interaction

The concomitant use of ibuprofen with the following medicines should be avoided:

– Acetylsalicylic acid: except in low doses of acetylsalicylic acid (no more than 75 mg per day) prescribed by a physician because concomitant use may increase the risk of side effects. Co-administration of ibuprofen decreases anti-inflammatory and antiplatelet effects of acetylsalicylic acid (increased incidence of acute coronary failure is possible in patients receiving low doses of acetylsalicylic acid as antiplatelet agents after starting ibuprofen administration).

– Other NSAIDs including selective COX-2 inhibitors: concomitant use of two or more drugs from the NSAID group should be avoided because of possible increased risk of side effects.

Cautiously use concomitantly with the following drugs:

– Anticoagulants and thrombolytics: NSAIDs may increase the effect of anticoagulants in particular warfarin and thrombolytics.

Hypotensive drugs (ACE inhibitors and angiotensin II antagonists) and diuretics: NSAIDs may reduce the effectiveness of drugs in these groups. Diuretics and ACE inhibitors may increase nephrotoxicity of NSAIDs.

– Glucocorticosteroids: increased risk of GI ulcers and gastrointestinal bleeding.

– Antiaggregants and selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors: increased risk of gastrointestinal bleeding.

– Cardiac glycosides: concomitant administration of NSAIDs and cardiac glycosides may worsen heart failure, decrease glomerular filtration rate, and increase plasma concentrations of cardiac glycosides.

– Lithium preparations: there is data on the likelihood of increased plasma lithium concentrations with NSAIDs.

– Methotrexate: there is data on the possibility of increased plasma concentrations of methotrexate with NSAIDs.

Cyclosporine: increased risk of nephrotoxicity with concomitant administration of NSAIDs and cyclosporine.

– Mifepristone: NSAIDs should not be started earlier than 8-12 days after taking mifepristone because NSAIDs may reduce the effectiveness of mifepristone.

– Tacrolimus: Simultaneous use of NSAIDs and tacrolimus may increase the risk of nephrotoxicity.

– Zidovudine: concomitant use of NSAIDs and zidovudine may increase hematotoxicity. There is evidence of an increased risk of hemarthrosis and hematomas in HIV-positive patients with hemophilia co-treated with zidovudine and ibuprofen.

– Quinolone antibiotics: patients co-treated with NSAIDs and quinolone antibiotics may have an increased risk of seizures.

If you are using the above medications, or any other medications (including over-the-counter medications), please consult your physician before using the product.

Special Instructions

Overdose

In children, symptoms of overdose may occur after a dose greater than 400 mg/kg body weight. In adults the dose-dependent effect of overdose is less pronounced. The half-life of the drug in overdose is 15-3 hours.

Symptoms: nausea vomiting epigastric pain or less frequently diarrhea tinnitus headache and gastrointestinal bleeding.

In more severe cases, manifestations of the central nervous system are observed: drowsiness rarely – agitation convulsions disorientation coma.

In cases of severe poisoning metabolic acidosis and increased prothrombin time kidney failure liver tissue damage decrease in blood pressure respiratory depression and cyanosis may develop.

In patients with bronchial asthma, exacerbation of this disease is possible.

Treatment: symptomatic with mandatory provision of airway patency by monitoring of ECG and basic vital signs until the patient’s condition normalizes. Oral administration of activated charcoal or gastric lavage within 1 hour after taking a potentially toxic dose of ibuprofen is recommended.

If ibuprofen is already absorbed, alkaline drinking may be prescribed in order to eliminate the acidic derivative of ibuprofen by the kidneys by forced diuresis.

Frequent or prolonged seizures should be controlled with intravenous diazepam or lorazepam.

In worsening bronchial asthma, the use of bronchodilators is recommended.

In case of symptoms of overdose, the drug should be discontinued and a physician should be seen immediately.

Pregnancy use

The use of the drug is contraindicated in the III trimester of pregnancy. Before using the drug in I-II trimesters of pregnancy or during breast-feeding, consult a physician.
