2. Important information before taking Ibuprofen MAX Aurovitas

  • If the patient has had stomach or duodenal ulcers (or has had two or more episodes in the past);
  • If the patient has had bleeding or perforation of the gastrointestinal tract while taking NSAIDs;
  • If the patient has had bleeding from the brain or other active bleeding;
  • If the patient has unexplained blood disorders;
  • If the patient has severe dehydration (caused by vomiting, diarrhea, or insufficient fluid intake);
  • If the patient has severe liver, kidney, or heart failure;
  • If the patient is in the last 3 months of pregnancy.

Warnings and precautions

Before starting treatment with Ibuprofen MAX Aurovitas, the patient should discuss it with their doctor or pharmacist.

  • If the patient has recently had major surgery;
  • If the patient has or has had asthma or an allergic disease, as they may experience shortness of breath;
  • If the patient has hay fever, nasal polyps, or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, as there is an increased risk of allergic reactions. Allergic reactions can occur in the form of asthma attacks (so-called analgesic asthma), Quincke's edema, or hives;
  • If the patient has had stomach or intestinal ulcers (see also "When not to take Ibuprofen MAX Aurovitas");
  • If the patient has had gastrointestinal disease (such as ulcerative colitis, Crohn's disease);
  • If the patient has systemic lupus erythematosus or mixed connective tissue disease (a skin, joint, and kidney disease);
  • If the patient has a hereditary blood disorder (acute intermittent porphyria);
  • If the patient has a blood clotting disorder;
  • If the patient is taking other NSAIDs. It is recommended to avoid concurrent use with other NSAIDs, including selective cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitors, due to the increased risk of adverse effects (see "Ibuprofen MAX Aurovitas and other medicines" below);
  • In the case of chickenpox (varicella), it is recommended to avoid taking this medicinal product;
  • If the patient is elderly;
  • If the patient has kidney or liver disease;
  • If the patient has an infection - see "Infections" below;
  • When taking ibuprofen, symptoms of an allergic reaction to this medicine have occurred, including difficulty breathing, swelling around the face and neck (angioedema), chest pain. If any of these symptoms are noticed, the medicinal product should be discontinued immediately and medical help should be sought;
  • Severe skin reactions have been reported with ibuprofen, such as exfoliative dermatitis, erythema multiforme, Stevens-Johnson syndrome, toxic epidermal necrolysis, drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS), and acute generalized exanthematous pustulosis (AGEP). If the patient experiences any symptoms associated with these severe skin reactions described in section 4, they should discontinue Ibuprofen MAX Aurovitas and seek medical attention immediately.

Infections

  • Ibuprofen MAX Aurovitas may mask the symptoms of infection, such as fever and pain. As a result, Ibuprofen MAX Aurovitas may delay the application of appropriate infection treatment, which can lead to increased risk of complications. This has been observed in bacterial pneumonia and bacterial skin infections associated with chickenpox. If the patient is taking this medicine during an infection and the symptoms of the infection persist or worsen, they should consult a doctor immediately.

Treatment should be started with the lowest available dose, especially if the patient has had stomach or intestinal ulcers, is elderly, or needs to take low doses of acetylsalicylic acid or other medicines that may increase the risk of gastrointestinal problems (see "Ibuprofen MAX Aurovitas and other medicines"). The doctor may also recommend taking medicines that protect the stomach lining (e.g., misoprostol or proton pump inhibitors). The patient should inform their doctor if they experience any unusual stomach symptoms, especially signs of bleeding, such as vomiting blood or black stools resembling coal (see also section 4 "Possible side effects").

Taking anti-inflammatory and analgesic medicines, such as ibuprofen, may be associated with a small increased risk of heart attack or stroke, especially when used in high doses. The recommended dose should not be exceeded, nor should the duration of treatment (see section 3). Before taking Ibuprofen MAX Aurovitas, the patient should discuss their treatment with their doctor or pharmacist if:

  • The patient has heart disease, including heart failure, angina (chest pain), has had a heart attack, has had a bypass operation, has peripheral arterial disease (poor circulation in the legs or feet due to narrowed or blocked arteries), or has had any stroke (including "mini-stroke" or transient ischemic attack "TIA").
  • The patient has high blood pressure, diabetes, high cholesterol, has a family history of heart disease or stroke, or smokes. Very rarely, during ibuprofen treatment, severe skin reactions have been reported, potentially life-threatening (Stevens-Johnson syndrome, toxic epidermal necrolysis). Patients are more likely to experience such reactions in the first month of therapy. If a skin rash, mucosal lesions, or any other signs of an allergic reaction are noticed, the medicinal product should be discontinued and a doctor or pharmacist should be consulted (see section 4).

Side effects can be minimized by using the smallest effective dose for the shortest duration necessary to relieve symptoms. Elderly patients are more likely to experience side effects.

Skin reactions

Severe skin reactions have been reported with Ibuprofen MAX Aurovitas. If a skin rash, mucosal lesions, blisters, or other signs of allergy occur, the patient should discontinue Ibuprofen MAX Aurovitas and seek medical attention immediately, as these may be the first signs of a very severe skin reaction (see section 4).

Generally, frequent use (of several types) of painkillers can lead to permanent and serious kidney damage. This risk may be increased during physical exertion, associated with salt and dehydration loss. Therefore, this should be avoided. Long-term use of any painkillers for headache treatment can cause their worsening. If such a situation occurs or is suspected, the patient should stop taking the medicine and consult a doctor. In patients who experience frequent or daily headaches, despite (or due to) regular use of headache medicines, it should be suspected that this is a headache caused by overuse of medicines.

In the case of long-term use of Ibuprofen MAX Aurovitas, regular monitoring of liver and kidney function tests and blood morphology is required. The doctor may recommend blood tests during treatment.

Children and adolescents

There is a risk of kidney function disorders in dehydrated children and adolescents.

Ibuprofen MAX Aurovitas is not recommended for use in adolescents with a body weight below 40 kg or in children under 12 years of age.

Ibuprofen MAX Aurovitas and other medicines

This medicinal product may affect the action of other medicines or other medicines may affect its action. For example:

  • medicines with anticoagulant action (i.e., blood thinners or medicines that prevent blood clots, such as aspirin - acetylsalicylic acid, warfarin, ticlopidine),
  • medicines that lower high blood pressure (ACE inhibitors such as captopril, beta-blockers such as atenolol, angiotensin II receptor antagonists such as losartan).

Also, some other medicines may be affected or have an effect on the action of Ibuprofen MAX Aurovitas. Therefore, before taking this medicinal product with other medicines, the patient should always consult a doctor or pharmacist.

The patient should tell their doctor or pharmacist about all medicines they are currently taking or have recently taken, and about any medicines they plan to take. In particular, they should inform their doctor or pharmacist if they are taking:

  • Acetylsalicylic acid or other NSAIDs (anti-inflammatory and analgesic medicines): as this may increase the risk of stomach or intestinal ulcers and bleeding.
  • Digoxin (used in heart failure): as the action of digoxin may be enhanced.
  • Corticosteroids (medicines containing cortisone or substances similar to cortisone): as this may increase the risk of stomach or intestinal ulcers and bleeding.
  • Phenytoin (used in the treatment of epilepsy): as the action of phenytoin may be enhanced.
  • Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (medicines used in depression): as they may increase the risk of gastrointestinal bleeding.
  • Lithium (a medicine used in the treatment of manic-depressive illness and depression): as the action of lithium may be enhanced.
  • Probenecid and sulfinpyrazone (medicines used in the treatment of gout): as the excretion of ibuprofen may be delayed.
  • Moclobemide (used in the treatment of depression).
  • Potassium-sparing diuretics: as this may lead to hyperkalemia (high potassium levels in the blood).
  • Methotrexate (a medicine used in the treatment of cancer or rheumatism): as the action of methotrexate may be enhanced.
  • Tacrolimus and cyclosporin (immunosuppressive medicines): as kidney damage may occur.
  • Zidovudine (a medicine used in the treatment of HIV/AIDS): as ibuprofen may increase the risk of bleeding into the joint or bleeding that leads to swelling in patients with hemophilia and HIV.
  • Zidovudine or ritonavir (used in the treatment of HIV patients).
  • Sulfonylurea (an antidiabetic medicine): as interactions may occur.
  • Quinolone antibiotics: as the risk of seizures may be increased.
  • Mifepristone (a medicine prescribed to terminate pregnancy medically): as ibuprofen may weaken the action of this medicine.
  • Bisphosphonates (medicines prescribed for the treatment of osteoporosis): as they may increase the risk of stomach or intestinal ulcers and bleeding.
  • Oxpentifylline (pentoxifylline) (a medicine recommended to increase blood flow to the hands and feet): as this may increase the risk of gastrointestinal bleeding.
  • Baclofen, a muscle relaxant: as the toxicity of baclofen may be increased.
  • A herbal medicine containing Ginkgo biloba: as there is a possibility of increased risk of bleeding when taken with ibuprofen.
  • Voriconazole and fluconazole (CYP2C9 inhibitors) (used in fungal infections), as the action of ibuprofen may be enhanced. It is recommended to consider reducing the dose of ibuprofen, especially when high doses of ibuprofen are used with voriconazole or fluconazole.
  • Cholestyramine (used in the treatment of high cholesterol levels).

Ibuprofen MAX Aurovitas and alcohol

While taking this medicinal product, the patient should avoid consuming alcohol, as this may enhance possible side effects.

Pregnancy, breastfeeding, and fertility

If the patient is pregnant or breastfeeding, thinks they may be pregnant, or plans to have a baby, they should consult their doctor or pharmacist before taking this medicine.

Pregnancy

Ibuprofen MAX Aurovitas should not be taken if the patient is in the last 3 months of pregnancy, as it may harm the unborn child or cause problems during delivery. Ibuprofen MAX Aurovitas may cause kidney and heart problems in the unborn child. It may also increase the risk of bleeding in the mother and child and prolong or delay labor. During the first 6 months of pregnancy, Ibuprofen MAX Aurovitas should not be used unless the doctor considers it absolutely necessary. If treatment is necessary during this period or when trying to conceive, the lowest possible dose should be used for the shortest possible time. From the 20th week of pregnancy, Ibuprofen MAX Aurovitas may cause kidney function disorders in the unborn child if taken for more than a few days. This may lead to a low level of amniotic fluid surrounding the baby (oligohydramnios) or narrowing of the arterial duct (ductus arteriosus) in the baby's heart. If treatment is required for a longer period than a few days, the doctor may recommend additional monitoring.

Breastfeeding

Small amounts of ibuprofen may pass into breast milk. However, as no harmful effects have been reported in breastfed infants to date, it is usually not necessary to stop breastfeeding during short-term use of ibuprofen for fever and pain.

Fertility

Ibuprofen MAX Aurovitas belongs to a group of medicines (NSAIDs) that may affect female fertility. This effect is reversible after discontinuation of the medicine. The patient should inform their doctor before taking the medicine if they plan to become pregnant or are having trouble conceiving.

Driving and using machines

In the case of short-term use and usual dosing, this medicine does not affect or has negligible effects on the ability to drive and use machines. If side effects such as fatigue, dizziness, drowsiness, and vision disturbances occur, the patient should not drive vehicles or operate machines. Consuming alcohol increases the risk of these side effects.

Ibuprofen MAX Aurovitas contains sorbitol

This medicine contains 79.20 mg of sorbitol in each capsule.

Sorbitol is a source of fructose. If the patient (or their child) has been diagnosed with intolerance to some sugars or has been diagnosed with hereditary fructose intolerance, a rare genetic disorder in which the patient's body does not break down fructose, they should discuss this with their doctor before taking or administering this medicine to the patient (or their child).

3. How to take Ibuprofen MAX Aurovitas

This medicine should always be taken exactly as described in this patient leaflet or as directed by a doctor, pharmacist, or nurse. If the patient is unsure, they should consult their doctor or pharmacist.

The patient should take the smallest effective dose for the shortest duration necessary to relieve symptoms. If the symptoms of the infection (such as fever and pain) persist or worsen, the patient should consult a doctor immediately (see section 2).

Dosage

Mild to moderate pain and/or fever

Adults and adolescents with a body weight of over 40 kg (from 12 years of age)

The recommended single dose is 1 capsule of 400 mg, which can be taken up to 3 times a day, every 6 to 8 hours. The patient should not take more than 3 capsules (1200 mg of ibuprofen) in 24 hours.

In elderly patients with an increased risk of side effects, the smallest possible dose should be used for the shortest possible time.

The patient should not exceed the recommended doses or duration of treatment (3 days in adolescents and 3 days in the case of fever and 5 days in the case of pain in adults).

Ibuprofen MAX Aurovitas is not intended for use in adolescents with a body weight below 40 kg and in children under 12 years of age.

In the case of a migraine attack

Adults

The patient should take one 400 mg capsule as soon as possible from the start of the attack.

If there is no relief after the first dose, the patient should not take a second dose during the same attack. However, the attack can be treated with another therapy that does not contain an NSAID or acetylsalicylic acid.

If the pain returns, the patient can take a second dose, provided that there is an interval of 8 hours between the two doses. The patient should not take more than 3 capsules (1200 mg of ibuprofen) in 24 hours.

If after 3 days the patient does not feel better or feels worse, they should contact a doctor.

Method of administration

Ibuprofen MAX Aurovitas capsules should be swallowed whole with a large amount of water. The capsules should not be chewed.

Taking a higher than recommended dose of Ibuprofen MAX Aurovitas

In the case of taking a higher than recommended dose of Ibuprofen MAX Aurovitas or accidental ingestion by children, the patient should always consult a doctor or the nearest hospital for advice on the risk and actions to be taken.

Symptoms of overdose may include nausea, abdominal pain, vomiting (which may contain blood), gastrointestinal bleeding (see also section 4 below), diarrhea, headache, ringing in the ears, confusion, tremors, and blood in the stool. There may also be disorientation or coma. After taking high doses, drowsiness, chest pain, palpitations, loss of consciousness, seizures (mainly in children), weakness, and dizziness, blood in the urine, low potassium levels in the blood, agitation, blue discoloration of the skin and mucous membranes (cyanosis), and feeling cold and breathing problems have been reported. Additionally, in the case of severe poisoning, the bleeding time may be prolonged, probably due to the disruption of the action of circulating clotting factors. Acute kidney failure and liver damage may occur. In asthmatics, asthma may worsen. Additionally, low blood pressure and slow breathing (respiratory depression) may occur.

In the case of overdose, the patient should seek medical attention immediately, even if they feel well.

Missing a dose of Ibuprofen MAX Aurovitas

The patient should read the instructions on how to take the medicine and not take more than recommended. The patient should not take a double dose to make up for a missed dose.

If the patient has any further doubts about taking this medicine, they should consult their doctor or pharmacist.
