POSOLOGY AND METHOD OF ADMINISTRATION
500mg XL ‐ one tablet once or twice daily
The total daily dose of Etopan XL should not exceed 1,200mg.
As with other NSAIDs, the lowest dose and longest interval should be
sought
for each patient. Therefore, after observing the response to initial
therapy with
Etopan XL, the dose and frequency should be adjusted to suit
individual
patient’s needs (tolerance and response). In responsive patients,
partial
symptomatic relief of symptoms usually occurs within 1 or 2 weeks,
although
maximum effectiveness may occur only after several weeks of therapy.
During long‐term administration the dose of Etopan XL may be
adjusted, up or
down, depending on the patient’s clinical response (maximum dose
1200
mg/day).
As with other NSAIDs, Etopan XL is preferably taken after meals or
with food or
antacids to reduce gastrointestinal irritation, especially during
chronic use.

after
meals. If an antacid is taken concurrently, an aluminum and
magnesium‐
containing formulation may be preferred. It is recommended to take
Etopan XL
tablets with a full glass of water and that the patient remains in an
upright
position for 15‐30 minutes after administrati
