Pharmacological action

Pharmacotherapy group

Nonsteroidal Anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID)

ATX code

M01AE

Pharmacodynamics :

Dexketoprofen trometamol is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) derivative of propionic acid. It has analgesic anti-inflammatory and antipyretic effects. The mechanism of action is associated with inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis at the level of cyclooxygenase-1 and cyclooxygenase-2.

The analgesic effect occurs 30 minutes after parenteral use. The duration of the analgesic effect after use at a dose of 50 mg is 4-8 hours.

When combined with opioid analgesics, dexketoprofen significantly reduces the need for opioids (up to 30-45%).

Pharmacokinetics:

Suction

After intramuscular (i/m) use of dexketoprofen, the maximum concentration (Cmax) in the blood serum is reached on average in 20 minutes (10-45 minutes). The area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) after a single dose of 25-50 mg is proportional to the dose of both intravenous and intravenous use. The corresponding pharmacokinetic parameters are similar after a single and repeated IV or IV use, indicating that there is no accumulation of the drug.

Distribution

Dexketoprofen is characterized by a high level of binding to plasma proteins (99%). The average Vd is less than 025 l / kg and the half – life is about 035 hours.

Deduction

Dexketoprofen is primarily metabolized by conjugation with glucuronic acid, followed by renal elimination. The half-life (T 1/2) of dexketoprofen trometamol is about 1 -27 hours.

Pharmacokinetics in the elderly

In the elderly, there is an increase in the duration of T 1/2 (both after a single and after repeated IV or iv use) by an average of 48% and a decrease in the total clearance of the drug.

Interaction

Unwanted combinations

With other NSAIDs including salicylates in high doses (more than 3 g / day)

Simultaneous use of several NSAIDs increases the risk of gastrointestinal bleeding and ulcers.

With oral anticoagulants heparin in doses exceeding prophylactic and ticlopidine

There is an increased risk of bleeding due to inhibition of platelet aggregation and damage to the mucous membrane of the digestive tract.

With lithium preparations

, NSAIDs increase the concentration of lithium in the blood plasma (a decrease in renal excretion of lithium), which can reach toxic levels. Therefore, the level of lithium in the blood should be monitored when prescribing a dose change or discontinuing dexketoprofen.

With methotrexate in high doses (at least 15 mg / week)

The toxicity of methotrexate increases due to a decrease in its renal clearance when using NSAIDs.

With glucocorticosteroids

The risk of ulcers and gastrointestinal bleeding increases.

Hydantoin derivatives and sulfonamides

The severity of their toxic manifestations may increase.

Combinations that require caution

With diuretics ACE inhibitors antibacterial drugs from the group of aminoglycosides and angiotensin II receptor antagonists

Dexketoprofen weakens the effect of diuretics and other antihypertensive agents.Treatment with NSAIDs is associated with the risk of acute renal failure in patients with dehydration (reduced glomerular filtration rate due to reduced prostaglandin synthesis). When using dexketoprofen and diuretics in combination, make sure that the patient is adequately hydrated and monitor renal function before prescribing.

With methotrexate in low (less than 15 mg/week) doses

The hematological toxicity of methotrexate increases due to a decrease in its renal clearance when using NSAIDs. Weekly monitoring of the blood picture should be carried out in the first weeks of combined treatment. In the presence of even minor violations of renal function, as well as in the elderly, careful monitoring is necessary.

With pentoxifylline

The risk of bleeding increases. Active clinical monitoring and frequent monitoring of bleeding time or blood clotting time is required.

With zidovudine

Zidovudine may have a toxic effect on reticulocytes, which may lead to severe anemia after the first week of NSAID use. It is necessary to count blood cells and reticulocytes 1-2 weeks after the start of combined treatment.

With oral hypoglycemic medications

Due to the possible increase in hypoglycemic effect due to the ability of NSAIDs to displace them from the sites of binding to plasma proteins.

With heparins (low molecular weight)

Increased risk of bleeding.

Combinations to take into account

With beta blockers

It is possible to reduce their antihypertensive effect due to the inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis by NSAIDs.

With cyclosporine and tacrolimus

It is possible to increase their nephrotoxicity due to the effect of NSAIDs on renal prostaglandins. When conducting combination therapy, it is necessary to monitor renal function.

With thrombolytic drugs

Increases the risk of bleeding;

With probenecid

It is possible to increase the concentration of dexketoprofen in blood plasma, which may be due to an inhibitory effect on tubular secretion and/or conjugation with glucuronic acid and requires dose adjustment of dexketoprofen.

With cardiac glycosides

PPIs can lead to an increase in their concentration in blood plasma.

With Mifepristone

Due to the theoretical risk of changing the effectiveness of mifepristone under the influence of prostaglandin synthesis inhibitors, NSAIDs should be prescribed 8-12 days after taking mifepristone.

With quinolone antibiotics

There is a high risk of seizures when NSAIDs are used in combination with high doses of quinolones.

Pharmaceutical interaction

Dexketoprofen should not be mixed in the same syringe with a solution of dopamine promethazine pentazocine pethidine or hydroxyzine (a precipitate forms).

Dexketoprofen can be mixed in one syringe with a solution of heparin lidocaine morphine and theophylline.

The diluted solution of the drug for intravenous drip use should not be mixed with promethazine or pentazocine.

The diluted solution of the drug is compatible with the following solutions for injection: dopamine heparin hydroxyzine lidocaine morphine pethidine and theophylline.

How to take, course of use and dosage

Intravenously (slowly for at least 15 seconds) and intramuscularly (injected deeply slowly). Recommended dose for adults: 50 mg every 8-12 hours. If necessary, repeated use of the drug with a 6-hour interval is possible. The maximum daily dose is 150 mg. Dexketoprofen is indicated for short-term use (no more than 2 days) during acute pain syndrome.

Impaired liver function

In patients with mild to moderate hepatic impairment (5-9 points on the Child-Pugh scale), the total daily dose should be reduced to 50 mg and frequent monitoring of liver function should be carried out. Dexketoprofen should not be used in patients with severe hepatic impairment.

Impaired renal function

For patients with mild renal impairment (creatinine clearance 30-60 ml / min), the daily dose is reduced to 50 mg. Dexketoprofen should not be used in patients with moderate or severe renal insufficiency (creatinine clearance less than 30 ml / min).

Elderly patients

Dose adjustment for elderly patients is usually not required, however, due to a physiological decrease in renal function, it is recommended to reduce the dose of the drug: a total daily dose of 50 mg for mild renal impairment in elderly patients.

Preparation of solutions

To prepare a solution of the drug for intravenous infusion, the contents of one ampoule (2 ml) are diluted in 30-100 ml of 09% sodium chloride solution of glucose solution or Ringer’s solution. The solution should be prepared under aseptic conditions and protected from daylight. The diluted solution should be clear and colorless administered by slow intravenous infusion lasting 10-30 minutes.

Overdose

Cases of overdose are not described.

Symptoms: vomiting nausea anorexia abdominal pain dizziness disorientation headache drowsiness may occur.

Treatment: symptomatic therapy; if necessary, hemodialysis.

Special instructions

Patients with symptoms of gastrointestinal disorders or a history of gastrointestinal diseases should be monitored by a doctor, especially for gastrointestinal bleeding. In cases of gastrointestinal bleeding in patients taking dexketoprofen, the drug is immediately discontinued.

Caution should be exercised in patients taking concomitant medications that may increase the risk of ulceration or bleeding: corticosteroids, anticoagulants (such as warfarin), selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, or antiplatelet agents (including acetylsalicylic acid).

Dexketoprofen may cause reversible inhibition of platelet aggregation and increase bleeding time.

Dexketoprofen should be used with caution in patients with a history of allergies. Dexketoprofen should be used with caution in patients with chronic heart failure of NYHA functional class I-II.

Dexketoprofen can cause an increase in the level of creatinine and nitrogen in blood plasma have a negative effect on the urinary system leading to the development of glomerulonephritis interstitial nephritis papillary necrosis nephrotic syndrome and acute renal failure.

As with other NSAIDs, there may be a slight transient increase in the values of some liver tests, a significant increase in the activity of ACT and ALT in the blood serum. At the same time, monitoring of liver and kidney functions is necessary in elderly patients. In case of a significant increase in the corresponding indicators, Dexketoprofen should be discontinued.

Dexketoprofen should be used with caution in patients with hematopoietic disorders, patients with systemic lupus erythematosus or other connective tissue diseases.

Like other NSAIDs, dexketoprofen may mask the symptoms of infectious diseases. Isolated cases of exacerbation of infectious processes localized in soft tissues have been reported with the use of NSAIDs. Therefore, medical supervision of patients with signs of bacterial infection or worsening of the condition during treatment with dexketoprofen is required.

Caution should be exercised when prescribing the drug to patients with impaired liver kidney and heart function or conditions that may cause fluid retention in the body. In these patients, the use of NSAIDs can lead to deterioration of the condition and fluid retention in the body.

Caution should also be exercised when prescribing dexketoprofen to patients using diuretics or predisposed to hypovolemia, as they have an increased risk of developing nephrotoxicity. Caution is necessary when prescribing the drug to the elderly, as they are more likely to have impaired renal function, liver or cardiovascular system, as well as the occurrence of adverse reactions such as gastrointestinal bleeding or intestinal perforation.

Each ampoule of the drug contains 200 mg of ethanol.
