INSTRUCTION FOR THE SPECIALIST.
Description of the drug approved by the manufacturer for the printed edition of 2013.
PHARMACHOLOGIC EFFECT
Acetecacin is a derivative of indolylacetic acid. Its pharmacological effect is partly due to the effect of indomethacin, the metabolite product of acetemethacin.
Acetetacin is an anti-inflammatory, analgesic and antipyretic agent and, like other anti-inflammatory drugs, suppresses platelet aggregation.
The anti-inflammatory effect of acetemethacin has been demonstrated in animal experiments on a large number of models of inflammation. Acemetazin acts at various stages of the inflammatory process. It was found that it inhibits the synthesis of prostaglandins and the release of histamine, and also acts as a bradykinin and serotonin antagonist. It also inhibits the activity of the complement system and the release of hyaluronidase.
The membrane-stabilizing property of acetemethacin prevents the release of proteolytic enzymes, leading to the suppression of exudative and proliferative inflammatory processes.
PHARMACOKINETICS
Suction
After ingestion, acetemethacin is absorbed quickly and completely.
Distribution
Acetetacin accumulates in the area of ​​inflammation.
It was found that after six days of treatment with acetemethacin (2 Г— 90 mg per day) or indometacin (3-50 mg per day) six hours after the last intake, the concentrations of the active substance were significantly higher in the synovial fluid, the synovial membrane, and in the muscles (a also in bone tissue after treatment with acetemethacin), compared to the concentrations found in the blood. In all studied tissues, except for synovial fluid and adipose tissue, after taking acetemethacin concentrations were higher than after taking indomethacin.
Metabolism
After taking one dose and after re-taking the drug, Rantudil Retard, acetemethacin and indomethacin, which is formed by the metabolism of acetylcin, are present in the blood in a ratio of 1: 1. There is no evidence of the induction of enzymes that destroy acetemethacin.
Excretion
Acetetacin is excreted by the kidneys and with bile. 40% of the ingested drug is excreted through the kidneys, the remainder is excreted by the intestine. Acetecacin is excreted by the kidneys partially in unchanged form, partly as acetomethacin conjugated with glucuronic acid, in the form of metabolite indomethacin (free and conjugated), formed during esterolysis and after cleavage of the ester (in the methoxy group at position 5) and deacylation (decomposition of p-chlorobenzoyl group) in the form of a pharmacologically inactive compound.
Binding to proteins and half-life
Acetetacin binds to plasma proteins. The half-life is approximately 4.5 hours.
Concentrations in the blood
When using the drug with controlled release, the maximum concentration in the blood is reached much later (p <0.05) than when using other forms; concentration in the blood is also significantly lower (p <0.01) two hours after ingestion. However, at 6 and 10 hours, plasma-controlled concentrations of acetemethacin are significantly higher than those of other acetcemetin formulations.
INDICATIONS
Pain and impaired motor activity resulting from the following diseases:
- chronic rheumatoid arthritis (chronic polyarthritis), rheumatoid arthritis;
- Acute pain syndrome associated with degenerative joint disease, in particular large joints and spine (arthrosis, spondylarthrosis);

DOSING MODE
Capsules should be swallowed whole, with a sufficient amount of liquid while eating.
Recommended dose - 1 capsule 1-2 times a day.
Dosage regimen for gout attacks
The standard recommended dose for the treatment of acute gout attacks, before relieving symptoms, is 180 mg of acetylcin a day (corresponding to 2 capsules of Rantudil Retard).
The duration of treatment depends on the clinical picture, but therapy in doses exceeding 2 capsules of Rantudil Retard a day should last no more than 7 days.

SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS
Rantudil Retard should only be used if there is an opportunity to provide emergency assistance:
- Patients with hypersensitivity reactions (eg, asthma attacks, skin reactions or acute rhinitis) on NSAIDs / analgesics;
- patients suffering from asthma, hay fever, edema of the nasal mucosa or chronic respiratory disease;
Particular caution is needed when Rantudil Retard is taken concomitantly with other drugs acting on the central nervous system, or alcohol.
In some patients who took Rantudil Retard, there was an increase in liver and kidney function.
With a long course of treatment, a hemogram, coagulation monitoring, and ophthalmological examination are recommended.
Impact on the ability to drive vehicles and manage mechanisms
The use of Rantudil Retard may cause side effects, including effects on the central nervous system, so during treatment should refrain from potentially dangerous activity requiring high speed of mental and physical reactions (driving, working with machinery, working at height, etc.) .
OVERDOSE
Symptoms:
Given the mechanism of action of the drug, overdose or misuse can cause central nervous system disorders, including headache, dizziness, confusion, drowsiness, convulsions and loss of consciousness right up to coma. In addition, nausea, vomiting, pain in the epigastric region, sweating, abnormal electrolyte balance, arterial hypertension, ankle edema, oliguria, hematuria, respiratory depression are possible.
Urgent care:
With symptoms of overdose or in case of an alleged overdose, it is recommended to carry out symptomatic treatment, including gastric lavage, induction of diuresis while maintaining the water balance, and, if necessary, the use of anti-shock measures.
Antidote:
The specific antidote is unknown.
DRUG INTERACTION
The following interactions were described with Rantudil Retard in combination with the following preparations:
Digoxin, lithium, phenytoin:
There may be an increase in the concentration of these drugs in the blood plasma.
Anticoagulants:
NSAIDs can enhance the effect of anticoagulants, such as warfarin, so it is recommended that coagulation of the patient's blood be monitored if used simultaneously.
Corticosteroids:
Increased risk of ulcerative lesions of the gastrointestinal tract or bleeding.
Other NSAIDs, including salicylates:
Simultaneous administration of several NSAIDs may increase the risk of gastrointestinal ulceration or bleeding due to a synergistic effect, therefore, simultaneous administration of acetemethacin with other NSAIDs should be avoided.
Probenenide, sulfinpyrazone:
They can slow the excretion of acetemethacin.
Antibiotics of penicillin series
They can slow the excretion of acetemethacin.
Diuretics and antihypertensive drugs:
The hypotensive effect of drugs can be weakened. Furosemide accelerates the excretion of acetemethacin.
Potassium-sparing diuretics:
Can increase the level of potassium in the blood (hyperkalemia); it is often necessary to monitor the potassium content.
Antiaggregants and selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRls):
Increased risk of gastrointestinal bleeding. There have been no reports of interactions between acetemethacin and other active substances that also bind to plasma proteins.
Antacid:
May decrease the absorption rate of acetemethacin.
