INSTRUCTION FOR THE SPECIALIST.

Description of the drug approved by the manufacturer for the printed edition of 2014.

PHARMACHOLOGIC EFFECT

NSAIDs.
Has a pronounced anti-inflammatory, analgesic and antipyretic effect, which is due to inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis by inhibiting the activity of COX-1 and COX-2.
Given that potassium diclofenac is absorbed very quickly from the digestive tract, Rapent Rapid is most effective in treating acute pain and inflammatory conditions, in which a rapid initial effect is most important.

The analgesic and antipyretic effect of Rapent Rapid manifests itself within the first 30 minutes after administration, and the effect lasts for 4-6 hours.

PHARMACOKINETICS

Suction

After ingestion, the drug is quickly and completely absorbed.
Absorption of diclofenac decreases when taken with food. Absorption begins in the stomach, C max ofdiclofenac in the blood plasma is reached approximately 40 minutes after administration. The concentration in the plasma is linear in the dose of the drug administered. Cmax in the blood plasma after taking the 50 mg tablet is 1.3 Ојg / ml.
Distribution

Binding to blood plasma proteins (mainly with albumins) is high - up to 99%.
Rapidly distributed into tissues and body fluids. Penetrates into the synovial fluid. In this case, C max of potassium diclofenac in the synovial fluid is noted 2-4 hours later than in plasma. T 1/2 diclofenac potassium from the synovial fluid is 3-6 hours, and its concentration in the synovial fluid 4-6 hours after taking the drug remains higher than in the plasma for another 12 hours.
When observing the recommended interval between meals, cumulation of the drug does not occur.

Metabolism

Diclofenac is metabolized in the liver.
50% of the active substance is metabolized during the "first pass" through the liver. Metabolism occurs by multiple or single hydroxylation and conjugation. The isozyme CYP2C9 is involved in the metabolism. The pharmacological activity of metabolites is lower than that of diclofenac potassium.
Excretion

T 1/2 from the blood plasma is 1-2 hours. It is excreted mainly by the kidneys: about 60% - in the form of metabolites, less than 1% - in unchanged form.
The rest of the drug is excreted with bile in the form of metabolites.
Systemic clearance is 260 ml / min.

Pharmacokinetics in special clinical cases

Pharmacokinetics of the drug does not change depending on the age of the patient.

In patients with severe renal dysfunction (CC <10 ml / min), the time for excretion of metabolites with bile is increased.
At the same time, there is no increase in their concentration in the blood.
In patients with chronic hepatitis or compensated liver cirrhosis, the pharmacokinetic parameters of diclofenac are the same as in patients who do not have liver disease.

Changes in the pharmacokinetics of diclofenac against the background of repeated administration do not occur.

SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS

When using NSAIDs, there is a possibility of developing gastrointestinal bleeding, as well as gastrointestinal ulcers, sometimes complicated by perforation, without previous symptoms or the presence of such attacks in the patient's anamnesis.
These complications can have serious consequences especially for elderly patients. If these symptoms occur, the drug should be immediately discontinued.
The risk of developing gastrointestinal bleeding increases with increasing doses of NSAIDs in patients with a history of peptic ulcer, especially if the disease is complicated by bleeding and perforation, as well as in elderly patients.
To reduce the risk of complications, therapy should be initiated and maintained at the lowest effective dose level, taking into account the possibility of using combination therapy and the use of protective agents (for example, proton pump inhibitors or misoprostol). When prescribing diclofenac to patients with an existing pathology of the gastrointestinal tract (ulcer, bleeding, perforation) in a history, it is necessary to conduct therapy with careful medical supervision and observance of special care. Caution should be observed when concomitant administration with medications that may increase the risk of erosive ulcerative lesions or bleeding from the gastrointestinal tract (such as systemic corticosteroids, anticoagulants, platelet aggregation inhibitors or selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors).
Patients suffering from ulcerative colitis or Crohn's disease should be treated under close medical supervision.
as a result of diclofenac, there may be an exacerbation of these diseases.
The use of diclofenac should be discontinued at the first signs of skin rash, mucous membranes and other signs of hypersensitivity to the components of the drug.

During treatment, in rare cases, allergies may occur, including anaphylactic / anaphylactoid reactions, incl.
in patients who did not previously use diclofenac.
It should be remembered that in connection with its pharmacological properties, diclofenac can mask the symptoms characteristic of infectious diseases.

The simultaneous use of diclofenac with systemic NSAIDs (including selective inhibitors of COX-2) should be avoided, since there is no evidence of a beneficial effect as a result of synergy, and there are no data on possible side effects.

Care should be taken when prescribing the drug to elderly patients.
We recommend that patients who are elderly and elderly patients with low body weight be prescribed at the lowest effective dose.
In patients with bronchial asthma, seasonal allergic rhinitis, edema of the nasal mucosa (polyps of the nasal mucosa), COPD or chronic infection of the respiratory tract (especially associated with allergic rhinitis-like symptoms), reactions to drugs from the NSAID group in the form of asthma attacks, Quincke's edema or urticaria develop more often than usual.
When appointing the drug to such patients, it is recommended that special care be taken (readiness for immediate medical measures).
When diclofenac is prescribed, patients with impaired liver function should be closely monitored, as the condition of such patients may worsen.
During the application of Raptin Rapid, the activity of one or more hepatic enzymes may increase. If, during treatment, complaints or symptoms that indicate liver disease develop, and if other side effects occur (for example, eosinophilia, rash, etc.), the drug should be discontinued. It should be borne in mind that hepatitis against diclofenac may occur without prodromal phenomena. Care should be taken when prescribing the drug to patients with hepatic porphyria, as taking diclofenac can provoke an attack.
Since there are reports that, with the use of NSAIDs, fluid retention and the appearance of edema may occur, it is recommended that special care be taken when prescribing Rapent Rapid to patients with impaired renal and cardiac function, history of arterial hypertension, elderly patients, concomitant diuretics or drugs that have a significant effect on kidney function, as well as patients who have a significant reduction in BCC of any etiology, for example, in the period before or after a large
surgical interventions. In such cases, when using diclofenac as a precautionary measure, monitoring of renal function is recommended. After discontinuing therapy, the baseline parameters are usually restored.
Rapent Rapid may temporarily inhibit platelet aggregation.
Therefore, patients with hemostasis disorders need careful monitoring of relevant laboratory parameters.
During the use of Rapent Rapid, alcohol should be avoided.

Impact on the ability to drive vehicles and manage mechanisms

During the period of treatment, a slight decrease in the rate of psychomotor reactions is possible.
In this regard, patients taking the drug should refrain from activities that require increased attention and rapid psychomotor reactions.
OVERDOSE

Symptoms: disorders of the digestive system, arterial hypotension, nephrotoxicity (up to acute renal failure), dizziness, headache, hyperventilation of the lungs, clouding of consciousness;
in children - myoclonic cramps, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, bleeding, impaired liver and kidney function.
Treatment: gastric lavage with subsequent administration of activated charcoal, symptomatic and maintenance therapy.
Forced diuresis, hemodialysis are ineffective.
DRUG INTERACTION

With simultaneous use of diclofenac can increase the concentration of lithium and digoxin in the blood plasma.

With simultaneous administration with diuretic or antihypertensive agents (eg, beta-blockers, ACE inhibitors), diclofenac may reduce the severity of antihypertensive action.

Simultaneous use of potassium-sparing diuretics can lead to an increase in serum potassium levels.

The simultaneous use of diclofenac and other systemic NSAIDs or corticosteroids may increase the incidence of adverse events from the gastrointestinal tract.

Special care is required when co-administered with anticoagulants or platelet aggregation inhibitors, since the risk of bleeding increases with simultaneous administration of diclofenac with these drugs.

In clinical studies, it has been established that simultaneous use of diclofenac and oral hypoglycemic drugs is possible and the efficacy of the latter is not changed.However, some cases of development, both hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia, are known, which required a change in the dose of hypoglycemic drugs during the application of diclofenac.

Caution is required when administering NSAIDs less than 24 hours before or after taking methotrexate,
in such cases, the concentration of methotrexate in the blood may increase and its toxic effect may be increased.
The effect of NSAIDs on the synthesis of prostaglandins in the kidneys can enhance the nephrotoxicity of cyclosporine.

There are separate reports on the development of seizures in patients who received antibiotic drugs simultaneously, derivatives of quinolone and NSAIDs.

Antacids, such as aluminum hydroxide and magnesium hydroxide, can slow the absorption of diclofenac, but do not affect the total amount of absorbed drug.

With concomitant therapy, selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (eg, citalopram, fluoxetine, paroxetine, sertraline) may increase the risk of developing gastrointestinal bleeding.
