POSOLOGY AND METHOD OF ADMINISTRATION
Posology
The treatment should start with the lowest dose anticipated to be
effective, which can subsequently be
adjusted, depending on the therapeutic response and any undesirable
effects. In long-term treatment a
low maintenance dose should be the aim.
The lowest effective dose should be used for the shortest duration
necessary to relieve symptoms (see
section 4.4).
_Adults and adolescents (12 years and older, >40kg): _
_Rheumatic diseases_
One 600 mg tablet three times daily. An interval of at least 4-6 hours
should be allowed between
doses. Some patients can be maintained on 600-1200mg daily. In severe
or acute conditions, it can be
advantageous to increase the dosage until the acute phase is brought
under control, provided that the
total daily dose does not exceed 2400mg in divided doses. This tablet
cannot be halved and in some
instances a different strength or formulation of ibuprofen must be
used.
_Juvenile Rheumatoid Arthritis _
Adolescents over 12 years of age (>40 kg): The recommended dose is
20-30mg/kg body weight daily
