INSTRUCTION FOR THE SPECIALIST.

Description of the drug approved by the manufacturer for the printed edition of 2015.

PHARMACHOLOGIC EFFECT

Aceclofenac has an anti-inflammatory, analgesic and antipyretic effect.
Oppresses the synthesis of prostaglandins and, thus, affects the pathogenesis of inflammation, the onset of pain and fever. In rheumatic diseases, the anti-inflammatory and analgesic effect of aceclofenac contributes to a significant reduction in the severity of pain, morning stiffness, swelling of the joints, which improves the functional state of the patient.
PHARMACOKINETICS

Suction

After ingestion, aceclofenac is rapidly absorbed, its bioavailability is close to 100%.
With MAX in the blood plasma is achieved through 1.25-3 hours after ingestion.Eating slows down absorption, but does not affect its extent.
Distribution

Aceclofenac binds highly to plasma proteins (> 99.7%).
Aceclofenac penetrates into the synovial fluid, where its concentration reaches 60% of its concentration in the blood plasma. V d is 30 liters.
Metabolism

It is believed that aceclofenac is metabolized by the isoenzyme CYP2C9 to form a metabolite of 4-OH-aceclofenac, whose contribution to the clinical effect of the drug is most likely minimal.
Diclofenac and 4-OH-aceclofenac are among the numerous metabolites of aceclofenac.
Excretion

The average T 1/2 is 4-4.3 hours. The ground clearance is 5 l / h.
Approximately 2/3 of the dose taken is excreted by the kidneys, mainly in the form of conjugated hydroxymetabolites. Only 1% of the dose after ingestion is displayed unchanged.
INDICATIONS

- relief of inflammation and pain syndrome with lumbago, toothache, humeroscapular periarthritis, rheumatic soft tissue damage;

- symptomatic treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, ankylosing spondylitis;

- The drug is intended for symptomatic therapy, reducing pain and inflammation at the time of use, the progression of the disease is not affected.

PREGNANCY AND LACTATION

Pregnancy

The drug Alental В® is contraindicated in pregnancy.
Information on the use of aceclofenac in pregnancy is absent. The inhibition of the synthesis of prostaglandins can adversely affect the course of pregnancy and / or the development of the embryo / fetus. During the third trimester of pregnancy, all inhibitors of prostaglandin synthesis, possessing cardiopulmonary toxicity, can cause premature closure of Botall's duct with the development of pulmonary hypertension; may cause impaired renal function of the fetus, which can progress to renal failure in combination with polyhydramnios.
Mothers and newborns in late pregnancy: the drug can affect the duration of bleeding due to the antiaggregate effect, which can develop even after applying very low doses;
the drug can inhibit uterine contractions, resulting in delayed delivery or prolonged labor.
Breast-feeding

The drug Alenthal В® should not be taken while breastfeeding.
Data on the isolation of aceclofenac with human milk are not available; when administration of radioactive 14 C-aceclofenac and lactating rats, no appreciable transfer of radioactivity into milk was observed.
Fertility

NSAIDs can affect fertility and are not recommended for use by women planning a pregnancy.

APPLICATION FOR FUNCTIONS OF THE LIVER

With caution apply the drug to patients with chronic renal failure.

The use of the drug for patients with severe renal failure (CK <30 ml / min), with progressive kidney disease is contraindicated.

APPLICATION FOR VIOLATIONS OF THE FUNCTION OF KIDNEYS

With caution apply the drug to patients with chronic liver failure.

The use of the drug in patients with severe hepatic insufficiency, with active liver disease is contraindicated.

APPLICATION FOR CHILDREN

The use of the drug for children and adolescents under the age of 18 is contraindicated.

APPLICATION IN ELDERLY PATIENTS

Use precautions with caution in elderly patients.

SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS

Avoid simultaneous administration of Alental В® and other NSAIDs.
including selective inhibitors of COX-2.
Undesirable effects can be minimized by applying the minimum effective dose and reducing the duration of treatment needed to control symptoms.

Effect on the digestive tract

Bleeding, ulceration or perforation of the gastrointestinal tract with a lethal outcome were observed with the administration of any NSAIDs at any period of treatment, as in the presence of the corresponding symptoms and the presence of serious gastrointestinal diseases in the anamnesis (peptic ulcer of the stomach and duodenum, Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, etc.), both and without them.
The risk of bleeding, ulceration and perforation of the gastrointestinal tract increases with an increase in the dose of NSAIDs in patients with a history of peptic ulcer, especially if it was accompanied by bleeding or perforation, as well as in elderly patients.These patients should take the minimum effective dose of the drug. They need combination therapy with protective agents (eg, misoprostol or proton pump inhibitors). Such treatment is necessary for patients who take small doses of acetylsalicylic acid or other drugs that adversely affect the condition of the digestive tract.
Patients with gastrointestinal diseases, incl.
elderly, should report any unusual symptoms associated with the gastrointestinal tract (especially bleeding), incl. when the drug is taken first. Particular care should be taken in patients who are taking drugs simultaneously, which may increase the risk of bleeding or ulcers, such as systemic glucocorticosteroids, anticoagulants (such as warfarin), selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, or antiaggregants (such as acetylsalicylic acid).
If there is gastrointestinal bleeding or ulcers, treatment with Alenthal В® should be discontinued.

Effects on the cardiovascular and central nervous system

Patients with arterial hypertension and / or congestive heart failure of mild or moderate degree need appropriate monitoring, because
the administration of NSAIDs (in particular in high doses for prolonged use) may not significantly increase the risk of arterial thrombosis (eg, myocardial infarction or stroke). There is no reliable data on the absence of this risk when taking aceclofenac. Patients with uncontrolled hypertension, chronic heart failure, established ischemic heart disease, atherosclerosis of peripheral arteries and / or cerebral circulation disorders should be careful when taking Alental В® . Also, care should be taken before patients with risk factors for the cardiovascular system (for example, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, diabetes, smoking).
Effects on the liver and kidneys

Taking NSAIDs can cause a dose-related reduction in the formation of prostaglandins and acute renal failure.
The importance of prostaglandins for the maintenance of renal blood flow should be considered when taking the drug in patients with impaired heart, kidney or liver function, in patients receiving diuretics, or in patients after surgery, as well as in elderly patients. Caution should be exercised when administering the drug to patients with impaired hepatic and renal function of mild or moderate degree, as well as to patients with other conditions predisposing to fluid retention in the body. In these patients, NSAIDs can lead to impaired renal function and fluid retention. Patients taking diuretics, people with an increased risk of hypovolemia should also be careful when taking Alental В® . It is necessary to appoint a minimum effective dose and regular medical monitoring of kidney function. Undesirable effects from the nights are usually resolved after discontinuation of aceclofenac.
Admission of aceclofenac should be discontinued if changes in liver function are preserved or worsened, clinical signs or symptoms of liver disease develop, or other manifestations (eosinophilia, rash) occur.
Hepatitis can develop without prodromal symptoms.
The use of NSAIDs in patients with hepatic porphyria can provoke an attack.

Hypersensitivity and skin reactions

Like other NSAIDs, the drug can cause allergic reactions, including anaphylactic / anaphylactoid reactions, even if the drug is taken for the first time.
Severe skin reactions (some of which can lead to death), including exfoliative dermatitis, Stevens-Johnson syndrome and toxic epidermal necrolysis, were very rare after NSAID administration. The highest risk of these reactions occurs during the first month of taking the drug. In case of skin rash, damage to the oral mucosa or other signs of hypersensitivity, stop taking Alental В® .
In some cases, with chickenpox, skin and soft tissue infections may occur.

At present, the role of NSAIDs in worsening of the course of these infections can not be ruled out.
Therefore, you should avoid taking Alental В® with chicken pox.
Hematologic disorders

Aceclofenac can cause reversible inhibition of platelet aggregation.

Disturbance from the respiratory system

Care should be taken when taking the drug to patients with bronchial asthma in an anamnesis or with a current bronchial asthma, tk.
the use of NSAIDs can provoke the development of sudden bronchospasm in such patients.
Elderly patients

Caution should be exercised when taking the drug in elderly patients.
they are more likely to have side effects (especially bleeding and perforation of the digestive tract) when taking NSAIDs. Complications can lead to death. Also, elderly patients are more likely to suffer from kidney, liver or cardiovascular diseases.
Long-term use

All patients receiving long-term treatment with NSAIDs should be closely monitored (for example, a general blood test, functional hepatic and renal tests).

Impact on the ability to manage vehicles and mechanisms

It is necessary to refrain from driving vehicles and practicing other potentially dangerous activities requiring increased concentration of attention and speed of psychomotor reactions,
the drug may cause dizziness and other side effects that may affect these abilities.
OVERDOSE

There is no evidence of an overdose of aceclofenac in humans.
Possible symptoms : nausea, vomiting, pain in the stomach, dizziness, headache, hyperventilation with increased convulsive readiness.
Treatment

Gastric lavage, administration of activated charcoal, symptomatic therapy.
Forced diuresis, hemodialysis are not effective enough.
DRUG INTERACTION

With the exception of warfarin, studies of drug interactions have not been conducted.
Aceclofenac is metabolized by the CYP2C9 isoenzyme; In vitro data show that aceclofenac may be an inhibitor of this enzyme. Thus, the risk of pharmacokinetic interaction is possible with simultaneous administration with phenytoin, cimetidine, tolbutamide, phenylbutazone, amiodarone, miconazole and sulfafenazole. As with other NSAIDs, there is an increased risk of pharmacokinetic interaction with other drugs that are excreted by the active kidney secretion, such as methotrexate and lithium preparations. Aceclofenac almost completely binds to blood plasma albumin and, consequently, there is the possibility of interactions by the type of displacement with other drugs that bind to proteins. Below is the class-specific information for NSAIDs:
Methotrexate: NSAIDs inhibit the tubular secretion of methotrexate;
moreover, a small metabolic interaction can occur, which leads to a decrease in the clearance of methotrexate. Therefore, when high doses of methotrexate are used, NSAIDs should be avoided.
Lithium and digoxin: some NSAIDs inhibit renal clearance of lithium and digoxin, which leads to an increase in the plasma concentration of both substances.Combined use should be avoided, if not carried out frequent monitoring of the concentration of lithium and digoxin.
Anticoagulants: NSAIDs inhibit platelet aggregation and damage the mucous membrane of the gastrointestinal tract, which can lead to increased action of anticoagulants and increase the risk of gastrointestinal bleeding in patients receiving anticoagulants. Combined use should be avoided aceclofenac and peroraliyh coumarin anticoagulants group ticlopidine and thrombolytics, if not carried out careful monitoring of the patient.
Antiplatelet agents and selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) or combined with NSAIDs may increase the risk of gastrointestinal bleeding.
Cyclosporin, tacrolimus:while taking NSAIDs with cyclosporine or tacrolimus should consider the risk of increased nefrotokeichnosti because of declining renal prostacyclin formation. Therefore, while taking should carefully monitor renal function.
Other NSAIDs: while taking aspirin or other NSAIDs may increase the incidence of side effects, so caution.
Steroids: increased risk of ulcers and gastrointestinal bleeding.
diuretics:aceclofenac, like other NSAIDs, may inhibit the activity of diuretics, may reduce the diuretic effect of furosemide and bumetanide and antihypertensive effect of thiazide. Co-administration with potassium-sparing diuretics may lead to an increase in the potassium content in the blood plasma. Aceclofenac did not affect blood pressure control when combined with bendrofluazidom, although we can not exclude cooperation with other diuretics.
Antihypertensive drugs:NSAIDs may also reduce the effect of antihypertensive drugs. Joint ACE antagonists or angiotensin II receptor inhibitors and NSAIDs can cause renal dysfunction. The risk of acute renal failure, which usually is reversible, may be increased in some patients with impaired renal function, such as elderly patients or dehydration. Therefore, caution should be exercised when used together with NSAIDs. Patients should consume the necessary amount of fluid and under appropriate supervision (monitoring of renal function at the beginning of a joint application and periodically during treatment).
Hypoglycemic agents:Clinical studies show that diclofenac may be used in conjunction with oral hypoglycemic agents without influencing their clinical effect. However, there are isolated reports of hypoglycaemic and hyperglycaemic effects of the drug. Thus, upon receipt of aceclofenac should conduct correction doses of drugs that can cause hypoglycemia.
Zidovudine: while receiving NSAIDs and zidovudine increases the risk of hematologic toxicity. There is evidence of an increase in the risk of hemarthrosis and hematoma in HIV-positive (HIV - human immunodeficiency virus) patients with hemophilia receiving zidovudine and ibuprofen.
mifepristone:aceclofenac could be used 8-12 days after mifepristone. because NSAIDs reduce the effect of the drugs in this group.
Cholestyramine: other drugs, including and NSAIDs, should be applied at least 1 hour before or 4-6 hours after administration of cholestyramine to reduce its effect on the absorption of drugs.
