THERAPEUTIC CLASSIFICATION
Opioid/NSAID combination analgesic
ACTION AND CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
HYDROCODONE COMPONENT
Hydrocodone is a centrally acting semisynthetic opioid antitussive and
analgesic. The precise
mechanism of analgesic action of hydrocodone and other opioids is not
known, although it is
believed to relate to the existence of opiate receptors in the central
nervous system. In addition
to analgesia, opioids may produce drowsiness, changes in mood, mental
clouding, constipation
and, in overdose, respiratory depression.
IBUPROFEN COMPONENT
Ibuprofen is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that
possesses analgesic and
antipyretic activities. The mode
of action, like that of other NSAIDs, is not completely
understood, but may be related to inhibition of cyclooxygenase
activity and prostaglandin
synthesis. Ibuprofen is a peripherally acting analgesic. Ibuprofen
does not have any known
effects on opiate receptors.
CODOFEN combines the analgesic effects of the centrally acting
analgesic hydrocodone with
the peripherally acting NSAID analgesic, ibuprofen.
PHARMACOKINETICS
Hydrocodone bitartrate and ibuprofen are well absorbed in the
gastrointestinal tract from oral
CODOFEN. In a single oral dose study, 31 adult male and female
subjects dosed with two
CODOFEN tablets gave a mean hydrocodone C
max
of 27.3 ng/mL occurring at T
max
1.7 hours;
the mean half-life was 4.5 hours and the mean AUC
0-
∞
was 216 ng/mL*hr. The mean ibuprofen
