Ketoprofen

Pronunciation: KEE-toe-PROE-fen
Generic Name: Ketoprofen
Brand Name: Orudis

Ketoprofen is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID). It may cause an increased risk of serious and sometimes fatal heart and blood vessel problems (eg, heart attack, stroke). The risk may be greater if you already have heart problems or if you take Ketoprofen for a long time. Do not use Ketoprofen right before or after bypass heart surgery.

Ketoprofen may cause an increased risk of serious and sometimes fatal stomach ulcers and bleeding. Elderly patients may be at greater risk. This may occur without warning signs.

Ketoprofen is used for:

Treating rheumatoid arthritis or osteoarthritis. It is also used to treat menstrual cramps and pain. It may also be used for other conditions as determined by your doctor.

Ketoprofen is an NSAID. Exactly how it works is not known. It may block certain substances in the body that are linked to inflammation. NSAIDs treat the symptoms of pain and inflammation. They do not treat the disease that causes those symptoms.

Do NOT use Ketoprofen if:

• you are allergic to any ingredient in Ketoprofen


• you have had a severe allergic reaction (eg, severe rash, hives, trouble breathing, growths in the nose, dizziness) to aspirin or an NSAID (eg, ibuprofen, celecoxib)


• you have recently had or will be having bypass heart surgery


• you are also taking probenecid


• you are in the last 3 months of pregnancy

Contact your doctor or health care provider right away if any of these apply to you.

Before using Ketoprofen:

Some medical conditions may interact with Ketoprofen. Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you have any medical conditions, especially if any of the following apply to you:

• if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or are breast-feeding


• if you are taking any prescription or nonprescription medicine, herbal product, or dietary supplement


• if you have allergies to medicines, foods, or other substances


• if you have a history of kidney or liver disease, diabetes, or stomach or bowel problems (eg, bleeding, perforation, ulcers)


• if you have a history of swelling or fluid buildup, asthma, growths in the nose (nasal polyps), or mouth inflammation


• if you have high blood pressure, blood disorders (eg, low blood albumin levels), bleeding or clotting problems, heart problems (eg, heart failure), or blood vessel disease, or if you are at risk for any of these diseases


• if you have poor health, dehydration or low fluid volume, or low blood sodium levels, you drink alcohol, or you have a history of alcohol abuse

Some MEDICINES MAY INTERACT with Ketoprofen. Tell your health care provider if you are taking any other medicines, especially any of the following:

• Anticoagulants (eg, warfarin), aspirin, corticosteroids (eg, prednisone), heparin, or selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) (eg, fluoxetine) because risk of stomach bleeding may be increased


• Probenecid because it may increase the risk of Ketoprofen's side effects


• Cyclosporine, lithium, methotrexate, quinolones (eg, ciprofloxacin), or sulfonylureas (eg, glipizide) because the risk of their side effects may be increased by Ketoprofen


• Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors (eg, enalapril) or diuretics (eg, furosemide, hydrochlorothiazide) because their effectiveness may be decreased by Ketoprofen

This may not be a complete list of all interactions that may occur. Ask your health care provider if Ketoprofen may interact with other medicines that you take. Check with your health care provider before you start, stop, or change the dose of any medicine.

How to use Ketoprofen:

Use Ketoprofen as directed by your doctor. Check the label on the medicine for exact dosing instructions.

• Ketoprofen comes with an extra patient information sheet called a Medication Guide. Read it carefully. Read it again each time you get Ketoprofen refilled.


• Take Ketoprofen by mouth. It may be taken with food if it upsets your stomach. Taking it with food may not lower the risk of stomach or bowel problems (eg, bleeding, ulcers). Talk with your doctor or pharmacist if you have persistent stomach upset.


• Take Ketoprofen with a full glass of water (8 oz/240 mL) as directed by your doctor.


• If you miss a dose of Ketoprofen and you are taking it regularly, take it as soon as possible. If it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose. Go back to your regular dosing schedule. Do not take 2 doses at once.

Ask your health care provider any questions you may have about the proper use of Ketoprofen.

Important safety information:

• Ketoprofen may cause dizziness or drowsiness. These effects may be worse if you take it with alcohol or certain medicines. Use Ketoprofen with caution. Do not drive or perform other possibly unsafe tasks until you know how you react to it.


• Serious stomach ulcers or bleeding can occur with the use of Ketoprofen. Taking it in high doses, for a long time, smoking, or drinking alcohol increases the risk of these side effects. Taking Ketoprofen with food will NOT reduce the risk of these effects. If you have severe stomach or back pain; black, tarry stools; vomit that looks like blood or coffee grounds; or unusual weight gain or swelling, contact your doctor or emergency room right away.


• Do NOT take more than the recommended dose or use for longer than prescribed without checking with your doctor.


• Ketoprofen is an NSAID. Before you start any new medicine, check the label to see if it has an NSAID (eg, ibuprofen) in it too. If it does or if you are not sure, check with your doctor or pharmacist.


• Do not take aspirin while you are using Ketoprofen unless your doctor tells you to.


• Lab tests, including kidney function, complete blood cell counts, and blood pressure, may be performed while you use Ketoprofen. These tests may be used to monitor your condition or check for side effects. Be sure to keep all doctor and lab appointments.


• Use Ketoprofen with caution in the ELDERLY; they may be more sensitive to its effects, especially stomach bleeding and kidney problems.


• Ketoprofen should be used with extreme caution in CHILDREN younger than 18 years old; safety and effectiveness in these children have not been confirmed.

You will need to discuss the benefits and risks of using Ketoprofen while you are pregnant. It is not known if Ketoprofen is found in breast milk. Do not breast-feed while taking Ketoprofen.

Motofen

Generic Name: difenoxin and atropine (Oral route)

dye-fen-OX-in hye-droe-KLOR-ide, AT-roe-peen SUL-fate

Commonly used brand name(s)

In the U.S.

• Motofen

Available Dosage Forms:

• Tablet

Therapeutic Class: Antidiarrheal

Pharmacologic Class: Atropine

Chemical Class: Difenoxin

Uses For Motofen

Difenoxin and atropine combination medicine is used along with other measures to treat severe diarrhea in adults. Difenoxin helps stop diarrhea by slowing down the movements of the intestines.

Since difenoxin is chemically related to some narcotics, it may be habit-forming if taken in doses that are larger than prescribed. To help prevent possible abuse, atropine (an anticholinergic) has been added. If higher-than-normal doses of the combination are taken, the atropine will cause unpleasant effects, making it unlikely that such doses will be taken again.

Difenoxin and atropine combination medicine should not be used in children. Children with diarrhea should be given solutions of carbohydrates (sugars) and electrolytes (important salts) to replace the water and important salts that are lost from the body during diarrhea.

This medicine is available only with your doctor's prescription.

Before Using Motofen

In deciding to use a medicine, the risks of taking the medicine must be weighed against the good it will do. This is a decision you and your doctor will make. For this medicine, the following should be considered:

Allergies

Tell your doctor if you have ever had any unusual or allergic reaction to tazarotene or any other medicines.

Using alcohol or tobacco with certain medicines may also cause interactions to occur. Discuss with your healthcare professional the use of your medicine with food, alcohol, or tobacco.

Other Medical Problems

The presence of other medical problems may affect the use of tazarotene. Make sure you tell your doctor if you have any other medical problems, especially:

• Eczema—Tazarotene may cause skin irritation and may worsen this condition

Proper Use of tazarotene

It is very important that you use tazarotene only as directed. Do not use more of it, do not use it more often, and do not use it for a longer time than your doctor ordered. To do so may cause irritation of the skin.

Read the patient information that will come with your medicine.

For acne—Before applying tazarotene to acne areas of the skin, wash the skin with a mild soap or cleanser and warm water, then gently pat dry. Wait at least 20 to 30 minutes before applying tazarotene.

For acne or psoriasis—Do not use tazarotene in or around the eyes or lips, or inside of the nose. Spread the medicine away form these areas when applying

Do not apply tazarotene to windburned or sunburned skin or on open wounds.

When using tazarotene, apply medicine to dry skin. If skin has just been washed and dried, wait at least 20 to 30 minutes before applying tazarotene. Applying to wet or damp skin may cause skin irritation.

Apply a thin layer of tazarotene only to lesions of psoriasis on the body or areas on face prone to developing acne. Rub medicine in gently and well. Wash medicine off skin areas not intended to be treated.

After applying the medicine, wash your hands to remove any medicine that might remain on them.

Dosing

The dose of tazarotene will be different for different patients. Follow your doctor's orders or the directions on the label. The following information includes only the average doses of tazarotene. If your dose is different, do not change it unless your doctor tells you to do so.

The amount of medicine that you take depends on the strength of the medicine. Also, the number of doses you take each day, the time allowed between doses, and the length of time you take the medicine depend on the medical problem for which you are using the medicine.

  • For acne:
    
    • Adults and children 12 years of age and older—Apply 0.1% tazarotene to clean, dry affected areas of the face once a day, usually in the evening or at bedtime.
    
    
    • Children up to 12 years of age—Use and dose must be determined by the doctor.
    
    
  
  
  • For psoriasis:
    
    • Adults and children 12 years of age and older—Apply 0.05% or 0.1% tazarotene to dry affected areas of the body once a day, usually in the evening or at bedtime. Do not treat a larger area of the skin than your doctor tells you to treat.
    
    
    • Children up to 12 years of age—Use and dose must be determined by the doctor.

Missed Dose

If you miss a dose of tazarotene, skip the missed dose and go back to your regular dosing schedule. Do not double doses.

Storage

Store the medicine in a closed container at room temperature, away from heat, moisture, and direct light. Keep from freezing.

Keep out of the reach of children.

Do not keep outdated medicine or medicine no longer needed.

Precautions While Using tazarotene

If you think that you may be pregnant, stop using the medicine immediately and check with your doctor.

If you are using tazarotene to treat acne of the face, your condition may seem to worsen at first before it begins to improve in about 4 weeks. Check with your doctor if your condition does not improve within 8 to 12 weeks.

If your are using tazarotene to treat psoriasis, scaly patches on skin may begin to improve in about 1 to 4 weeks but redness may take longer to improve. Check with your doctor if your condition becomes worse.

Do not cover the treated area with a bandage.

When using tazarotene, do not use skin products such as abrasive soaps or cleansers; alcohol-containing products; cosmetics or soaps that dry the skin; hair products that are irritating, such as permanents or hair removal products; skin products containing spices, limes, or other ingredients that may make the skin more sensitive to the sun; or other topical medicine for the skin on the same area as tazarotene, unless otherwise directed. To do so may cause severe irritation of the skin.

Ask your doctor before taking vitamin A supplements by mouth while using tazarotene.

During treatment with tazarotene, avoid exposing the treated areas to sunlight when possible, since the skin may be more likely to become sunburned. Do not use a sunlamp.

Some people who use tazarotene may become more sensitive to wind or cold weather, as well as to sunlight. Avoiding exposure to these conditions by using sunscreen products with a sun protection factor (SPF) of 15 or more and wearing protective clothing will help protect your skin against becoming too dry, irritated, or sunburned.

tazarotene Side Effects

It is likely that your skin may become irritated with normal use of tazarotene. You should not stop using tazarotene unless your skin becomes too red, dry, puffy, or otherwise irritated. If severe irritation occurs, contact your doctor.

Along with its needed effects, a medicine may cause some unwanted effects. Although not all of these side effects may occur, if they do occur they may need medical attention.

Check with your doctor as soon as possible if any of the following side effects occur:

• Burning or stinging of the skin (severe)


• changes in color of treated skin


• deep grooves or lines in skin


• dryness, itching, peeling, or redness of the skin (severe)


• pain or swelling of treated skin


• skin rash (in patients with psoriasis only)

Some side effects may occur that usually do not need medical attention. These side effects may go away during treatment as your body adjusts to the medicine. Also, your health care professional may be able to tell you about ways to prevent or reduce some of these side effects. Check with your health care professional if any of the following side effects continue or are bothersome or if you have any questions about them:

More common

• Burning or stinging after application
