What is the most important information I should know about medicines
called Nonsteroidal Anti-

NSAIDs can cause serious side effects, including:
•
Increased risk of a heart attack or stroke that can lead to death.

Do not take NSAIDs right before or after a heart surgery called a

Avoid taking NSAIDs after a recent heart attack, unless your
healthcare provider tells you to. You

esophagus (tube leading from the
mouth to the stomach), stomach and intestines:

anytime during use
o
without warning symptoms
o
that may cause death
The risk of getting an ulcer or bleeding increases with:

past history of stomach ulcers, or stomach or intestinal bleeding with
use of NSAIDs

“SSRIs”, or “SNRIs”

(inflammation) from medical conditions
such as different types of arthritis, menstrual cramps, and other
