Mechanism of action

NSAIDs, refers to derivatives of enolic acid and has anti-inflammatory, analgesic and antipyretic effects.

The pronounced anti-inflammatory effect of meloxicam is established on all standard models of inflammation. The mechanism of action of meloxicam is its ability to inhibit the synthesis of prostaglandins - known inflammatory mediators.

In vivo, meloxicam inhibits prostaglandin synthesis at the site of inflammation to a greater extent than in the gastric mucosa or kidneys. These differences are associated with more selective inhibition of COX-2 compared with COX-1. Inhibition of COX-2 is believed to provide the therapeutic effect of NSAIDs, whereas inhibition of a constantly present COX-1 isoenzyme may be the cause of adverse reactions from the stomach and kidneys.

The selectivity of meloxicam against COX-2 is confirmed in various test systems, both in vitro and ex vivo. The selective ability of meloxicam to inhibit COX-2 is shown when using in vitro human whole blood as a test system. Ex vivo found that meloxicam (at doses of 7.5 mg and 15 mg) more actively inhibited COX-2, having a greater inhibitory effect on the production of prostaglandin E2, stimulated by lipopolysaccharide (reaction controlled by COX-2) than on the production of thromboxane involved in the process of coagulation blood (reaction controlled by TSOG-1). These effects depended on the magnitude of the dose. Ex vivo showed that meloxicam at recommended doses did not affect platelet aggregation and bleeding time, in contrast to Indomethacin, Diclofenac, Ibuprofen and Naproxen, which significantly suppressed platelet aggregation and increased bleeding time.

advanced age, ischemic heart disease, chronic heart failure, cerebrovascular diseases, dyslipidemia / hyperlipidemia, diabetes mellitus, peripheral artery disease, smoking, chronic renal failure (CK 30-60 ml / min), ulcerative gastrointestinal lesions in history, the presence of Helicobacter pylori infection the use of NSAIDs, alcoholism, severe somatic diseases, simultaneous administration of oral GCS (includingprednisolone), anticoagulants (including warfarin), antiplatelet agents (including clopidogrel), selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (including citalopram, Fluoxetine, paroxetine, sertraline).

 

Suppression of prostaglandin synthesis can have an undesirable effect on pregnancy and fetal development. Thus, Meloflex Rompharm is contraindicated during pregnancy.

Meloxicam is excreted in breast milk, so Meloflex Rompharm is contraindicated during lactation. At the time of taking the drug must stop breastfeeding.

 

Contraindications: severe liver failure; severe liver failure or active liver disease.

 

Contraindications: chronic renal failure in patients not undergoing dialysis (CC less than 30 ml / min); progressive kidney disease.

 

Caution must be exercised in the treatment of patients with gastrointestinal diseases in history. Patients with symptoms of gastrointestinal tract symptoms should be monitored regularly. If an ulcerative lesion of the gastrointestinal tract or gastrointestinal bleeding occurs, Meloflex Rompharm should be canceled.

As with the use of other NSAIDs, gastrointestinal bleeding, ulcers and perforations,Potentially life-threatening patients can occur during treatment at any time, either in the presence of alarming symptoms or information about serious gastrointestinal complications in history, or in the absence of these signs. The consequences of these complications are generally more severe in the elderly.

Particular attention should be paid to patients reporting the development of adverse effects on the skin and mucous membranes. In such cases, the question of discontinuing the use of the drug Meloflex Rompharm should be considered.

Patients with reduced BCC and reduced glomerular filtration (dehydration, chronic heart failure, liver cirrhosis, nephrotic syndrome, clinically significant kidney disease, diuretic intake, dehydration after major surgeries) may cause clinically significant chronic renal failure, which is completely reversible after drug withdrawal (in such patients at the beginning of treatment, daily diuresis and kidney function should be monitored).

With a persistent and significant increase in transaminases and changes in other indicators of liver function, the drug should be canceled and control tests should be conducted.

In patients with an increased risk of side effects, treatment begins with a dose of 7.5 mg. In the terminal stage of chronic renal failure in patients on dialysis, the dose should not exceed 7.5 mg /

Influence on ability to drive motor transport and control mechanisms

There are no data on the negative effect of the drug on the ability to drive vehicles or work with mechanisms. For disorders of the central nervous system (reduced visual acuity, fatigue, dizziness or other disorders), these activities are contraindicated.

 

Strengthening dose-dependent side effects.

Symptoms: impaired consciousness, nausea, vomiting, epigastric pain, bleeding from the gastrointestinal tract, acute renal failure, acute liver failure, respiratory failure, asystolia.

Treatment: symptomatic therapy. Forced diuresis, alkalization of urine, hemodialysis are ineffective due to the high degree of binding of meloxicam with plasma proteins. There is no specific antidote

 

Pharmacodynamic interaction

Simultaneous administration of several NSAIDs (including salicylates) may increase the risk of erosive and ulcerative lesions of the gastrointestinal tract due to the synergistic effect, so the use of meloxicam with other NSAIDs is not recommended.

When using meloxicam with diuretics, the patient needs to consume a sufficient amount of fluid, and regular medical monitoring of renal function is required before and during the treatment process.

Combined use with indirect anticoagulants increases the risk of bleeding due to inhibition of platelet function and damage to the mucous membrane of the stomach and intestines. Therefore, do not recommend the combined use with NSAIDs and indirect anticoagulants.

With the combined use of thrombolytic and antithrombotic drugs with meloxicam, an increased risk of bleeding is possible (periodic monitoring of blood coagulation parameters is necessary).

Simultaneous use with ACE inhibitors and other antihypertensive drugs in elderly patients with symptoms of dehydration may trigger the development of acute renal failure. In addition, the combined use of meloxicam may reduce their hypotensive effect.

Meloxicam increases the nephrotoxic effect of cyclosporine.

Meloxicam can reduce the effectiveness of contraceptive agents.

Pharmacokinetic interaction

NSAIDs can increase the concentration of lithium in the serum to a toxic level (a decrease in the release of lithium by the kidneys). Therefore, the simultaneous use of meloxicam with lithium preparations is not recommended. If necessary, their combined use should carefully monitor the lithium content in the serum before, during, and after the end of the course of therapy with meloxicam and lithium preparations.

With simultaneous use with Methotrexate increases the negative impact on the hematopoietic system (the risk of anemia and leukopenia). Periodic control of hemogram is required.

Kolestyramine accelerates the elimination of meloxicam, increasing the clearance of meloxicam by 50%, reduces its T1 / 2 by 13 ± 3 h. Such an interaction has clinical significance.

When taken simultaneously with antacids, cimetidine and Digoxin, no significant clinical interaction is noted.

NSAIDs reduce the effectiveness of contraceptive intrauterine devices.

When sharing meloxicam and drugs that have a known ability to inhibit CYP2C9 and / or CYP3A4 (or are metabolized with the participation of these enzymes), the possibility of pharmacokinetic interaction should be taken into account. We can not exclude the possibility of the interaction of meloxicam with oral hypoglycemic agents.

With the simultaneous use of meloxicam with selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, the risk of gastrointestinal bleeding increases.
