NSAIDs can cause serious side effects, including: • Increased risk of a heart attack or stroke that can lead to death. This risk may happen early in treatment and may increase: o with increasing doses of NSAIDs o with longer use of NSAIDs Do not take NSAIDs right before or after a heart surgery called a “coronary artery bypass graft (CABG).” Avoid taking NSAIDs after a recent heart attack, unless your healthcare provider tells you to. You may have an increased risk of another heart attack if you take NSAIDs after a recent heart attack. • Increased risk of bleeding, ulcers, and tears (perforation) of the esophagus (tube leading from the mouth to the stomach), stomach and intestines: o any time during use o without warning symptoms o that may cause death The risk of getting an ulcer or bleeding increases with: o past history of stomach ulcers, or stomach or intestinal bleeding with use of NSAIDs o taking medicines called “corticosteroids”, “anticoagulants”, “SSRIs”; or “SNRIs” o increasing doses of NSAIDs o longer use of NSAIDs o smoking o drinking alcohol o older age o poor health o advanced liver disease o bleeding problems NSAIDs should only be used: o exactly as prescribed o at the lowest dose possible for your treatment o for the shortest time needed What are NSAIDs?

NAPROXEN- NAPROXEN TABLET CARILION MATERIALS MANAGEMENT ---------- NAPROXEN TABLETS, USP NAPROXEN SODIUM TABLETS, USP WARNING: RISK OF SERIOUS CARDIOVASCULAR AND GASTROINTESTINAL EVENTS CARDIOVASCULAR THROMBOTIC EVENTS • • GASTROINTESTINAL BLEEDING, ULCERATION, AND PERFORATION • DESCRIPTION Naproxen USP is a propionic acid derivative related to the arylacetic acid group of nonsteroidal anti- inflammatory drugs. The chemical names for naproxen USP and naproxen sodium USP are (S)-6-methoxy-α-methyl-2- naphthaleneacetic acid and (S)-6-methoxy-α-methyl-2-naphthaleneacetic acid, sodium salt, respectively. Naproxen USP and naproxen sodium USP have the following structures, respectively: Naproxen USP has a molecular weight of 230.26 and a molecular formula of C H O . Naproxen sodium USP has a molecular weight of 252.23 and a molecular formula of C H NaO . Naproxen USP is an odorless, white to off-white crystalline substance. It is lipid-soluble, practically insoluble in water at low pH and freely soluble in water at high pH. The octanol/water partition coefficient of naproxen at pH 7.4 is 1.6 to 1.8. Naproxen sodium USP is a white to creamy white, crystalline solid, freely soluble in water at neutral pH. NONSTEROIDAL ANTI-INFLAMMATORY DRUGS (NSAIDS) CAUSE AN INCREASED RISK OF SERIOUS CARDIOVASCULAR THROMBOTIC EVENTS, INCLUDING MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION AND STROKE, WHICH CAN BE FATAL. THIS RISK MAY OCCUR EARLY IN TREATMENT AND MAY INCREASE WITH DURATION OF USE. (_SEE WARNINGS_). NAPROXEN TABLETS AND NAPROXEN SODIUM TABLETS ARE CONTRAINDICATED IN THE SETTING OF CORONARY ARTERY BYPASS GRAFT (CABG) SURGERY (_SEE CONTRAINDICATIONS,_ _WARNINGS_). NSAIDS CAUSE AN INCREASED RISK OF SERIOUS GASTROINTESTINAL (GI) ADVERSE EVENTS INCLUDING BLEEDING, ULCERATION, AND PERFORATION OF THE STOMACH OR INTESTINES, WHICH CAN BE FATAL. THESE EVENTS CAN OCCUR AT ANY TIME DURING USE AND WITHOUT WARNING SYMPTOMS. ELDERLY PATIENTS AND PATIENTS WITH A PRIOR HISTORY OF PEPTIC ULCER DISEASE AND/OR GI BLEEDING ARE AT GREATER RISK FOR SERIOUS GI Pročitajte cijeli dokument
