Use during pregnancy and lactation

Nurofen^® UltraCap is contraindicated for use in the third trimester of pregnancy.

The use of the drug in the I and II trimesters of pregnancy and lactation is possible only in the case when the intended benefit to the mother outweighs the potential risk to the fetus or baby.

If necessary, the appointment of the drug during lactation should decide on the termination of breastfeeding.

The drug is contraindicated in marked disorders of the liver.

WITH caution should be prescribed in the presence of concomitant liver diseases.

Special notes

Treatment with the drug should be carried out in the minimum effective dose, the shortest possible course.

The patient should be informed that if side effects occur, the drug should be stopped and the doctor should be consulted. During the period of treatment is not recommended to use ethanol.

Control of laboratory parameters

During long-term treatment, it is necessary to control the picture of peripheral blood and the functional state of the liver and kidneys. When symptoms of gastropathy appear, a careful monitoring is shown, including esophagogastroduodenoscopy, complete blood count (hemoglobin determination), fecal occult blood test.

If necessary, determine the 17-ketosteroids drug should be canceled 48 hours before the study.

Influence on ability to drive motor transport and control mechanisms

Patients should refrain from all activities that require increased attention and high-speed psychomotor reactions.

Overdosage

Symptoms: abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, lethargy, drowsiness, depression, headache, tinnitus, metabolic acidosis, coma, acute renal failure, lowering blood pressure, bradycardia, tachycardia, atrial fibrillation, respiratory arrest.

Treatment: gastric lavage (only one hour after ingestion), Activated carbon, alkaline drink, forced diuresis; if necessary, conduct symptomatic therapy.

Drug interaction

The simultaneous use of Nurofen UltraCap with acetylsalicylic acid and other NSAIDs is not recommended.

With the simultaneous appointment of Ibuprofen reduces the anti-inflammatory and antiplatelet effect of acetylsalicylic acid (it is possible to increase the incidence of acute coronary insufficiency after starting ibuprofen in patients receiving small doses of acetylsalicylic acid as an antiplatelet agent).

With simultaneous use with anticoagulants and thrombolytic drugs (including alteplazy, streptokinase, urokinase) increases the risk of bleeding.

Simultaneous administration with serotonin reuptake inhibitors (including citalopram, fluoxetine, paroxetine, sertraline) increases the risk of serious bleeding from the gastrointestinal tract.

When combined with ibuprofen, cefamundol, cefoperazone, cefotetan, valproic acid, plicamycin increase the incidence of hypoprothrombinemia.

With the combined use of cyclosporine and gold preparations enhance the effect of ibuprofen on the synthesis of prostaglandin in the kidneys, which leads to increased nephrotoxicity. Ibuprofen increases the plasma concentration of cyclosporine and the likelihood of its hepatotoxic effects.

Drugs that block tubular secretion, with simultaneous use, reduce excretion and increase the plasma concentration of ibuprofen.

When used together, inducers of microsomal oxidation (includingPhenytoin, ethanol, barbiturates, rifampicin, phenylbutazone, tricyclic antidepressants) increase the production of hydroxylated active metabolites, increasing the risk of severe intoxication.

Inhibitors of microsomal oxidation reduce the risk of the development of the hepatotoxic effect of ibuprofen.

With the combined use of ibuprofen reduces the hypotensive activity of vasodilators, the natriuretic effect of Furosemide and hydrochlorothiazide.

Ibuprofen reduces the effectiveness of uricosuric drugs, enhances the effect of indirect anticoagulants, antiplatelet agents, fibrinolytics.

Enhances the side effects of mineralocorticoids, GCS, estrogen, ethanol.

When used together, it enhances the effect of oral hypoglycemic drugs (sulfonylurea derivatives) and insulin .

While taking antacids and Kolestiramin reduce the absorption of ibuprofen.

With the combined use of ibuprofen increases the concentration in the blood of Digoxin, lithium preparations, Methotrexate .

Drugs with myelotoxic effects enhance the manifestations of Nurofen UltraCap hematotoxicity.

Caffeine enhances the analgesic effect of ibuprofen.

Terms and conditions of storage
