WHAT ONSENAL IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
Onsenal belongs to a group of medicines called cyclo-oxygenase-2
(COX-2) inhibitors.
Cyclo-oxygenase-2 is an enzyme that increases at inflammatory sites
and in abnormally growing cells.
Onsenal works by inhibiting COX-2, to which such dividing cells are
sensitive. As a consequence the
cells die.
Onsenal is used to reduce the number of gastrointestinal polyps in
patients with Familial Adenomatous
Polyposis (FAP). FAP is an inherited disorder in which the rectum and
colon are covered with many
polyps that might develop colorectal cancer. Onsenal should be used
along with the usual care for FAP
patients such as surgery and endoscopic surveillance.

CLINICAL PARTICULARS
4.1
THERAPEUTIC INDICATIONS
Onsenal is indicated for the reduction of the number of adenomatous
intestinal polyps in familial
adenomatous polyposis (FAP), as an adjunct to surgery and further
endoscopic surveillance (see
section 4.4).
The effect of Onsenal-induced reduction of polyp burden on the risk of
intestinal cancer has not been
demonstrated (see sections 4.4 and 5.1)
4.2
POSOLOGY AND METHOD OF ADMINISTRATION
The recommended oral dose is two 200 mg capsules twice per day, taken
with food (see section 5.2).
Usual medical care for FAP patients should be continued while on
celecoxib. The maximum
recommended daily dose is 800 mg.
_Hepatic impairment_
: In patients with moderate hepatic impairment (serum albumin of 25-35
g/l), the
daily recommended dose of celecoxib should be reduced by 50% (see
sections 4.3 and 5.2). Caution
should be used as there is no experience in such patients at doses
higher than 200 mg.
_ _
_Renal impairment:_
Experience with celecoxib in patients with mild or moderate renal
impairment is
limited, therefore such patients should be treated with caution (see
sections 4.3, 4.4 and 5.2).
_ _
_Paediatric patients:_
Experience with celecoxib in FAP patients below the age of 18 years is
limited to
a single pilot study in a very small population, in which patients
were treated with celecoxib at doses
up to 16 mg/kg daily, which corresponds to the recommended adult FAP
dose of 800 mg daily (see
section 5.1).
_CYP2C9 Poor Metabolizers:_
Patients who are known or suspected to be CYP2C9 poor
metabolizers based on genotyping or previous history/experience w
