2. What you need to know before you take Ibuprofen Pharmaclan

Do not take Ibuprofen Pharmaclan

  • if you are allergic to ibuprofen or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6).
  • if you have ever had an allergic reaction such as bronchospasm, asthma, nasal discharge, itchy rash, or swelling of the lips, face, tongue, or throat (angioedema) after taking acetylsalicylic acid or other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs).
  • if you have ever had bleeding or perforation in the stomach or intestine related to previous treatment with NSAIDs.
  • if you currently have an ulcer or bleeding in the stomach or small intestine (duodenum), or if you have had two or more of these episodes of ulcers or bleeding in the stomach or duodenum (peptic ulcers) in the past.
  • if you have any unexplained blood clotting disorder.
  • if you have severe heart failure.
  • if you have severe liver or kidney failure.
  • if you are in the last three months of pregnancy.
  • if you are severely dehydrated (e.g., due to vomiting, diarrhea, or insufficient fluid intake).

Warnings and precautions

Consult your doctor or pharmacist before taking Ibuprofen Pharmaclan:

  • if you have systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE, an autoimmune disease) or mixed connective tissue disease (an autoimmune disease that affects connective tissue).
  • during chickenpox, it is advisable to avoid using this medicine.
  • if you have or have ever had gastrointestinal disorders (ulcerative colitis, Crohn's disease), as your condition may worsen.
  • if you have certain inherited blood clotting disorders (e.g., porphyria).
  • if you have reduced liver or kidney function.
  • if you have recently undergone major surgery.
  • if you are hypersensitive (allergic) to other substances.
  • if you have hay fever, nasal polyps, or chronic obstructive respiratory disorders, as you have a higher risk of allergic reactions. Allergic reactions can occur as asthma attacks (so-called analgesic asthma), sudden swelling (Quincke's edema), or hives.
  • if you are dehydrated.
  • if you have an infection - see the section "Infections" below.

The risk of side effects increases with the increase in the dose of the product and in elderly people. Therefore, it is necessary to start treatment with the lowest possible dose and continue treatment for the shortest time necessary to treat the symptoms.

Infections

Ibuprofen Pharmaclan may mask signs of infections such as fever and pain. Therefore, it is possible that ibuprofen may delay the appropriate treatment of the infection, which may lead to a higher risk of complications. This has been observed in bacterial pneumonia and in bacterial skin infections related to chickenpox. If you take this medicine while having an infection and your infection symptoms persist or worsen, consult a doctor immediately.

Effects on the cardiovascular system

Anti-inflammatory/analgesic medicines like ibuprofen may be associated with a small increased risk of heart attack (myocardial infarction) or stroke, particularly when used at high doses. Do not exceed the recommended dose or duration of treatment.

You should discuss your treatment with your doctor or pharmacist before taking Ibuprofen Pharmaclan:

  • if you have heart problems, including heart failure, angina pectoris (chest pain), or have had a heart attack, bypass surgery, or peripheral artery disease (poor circulation in the legs or feet due to narrow or blocked arteries), or any type of stroke (including 'mini-stroke' or transient ischemic attack "TIA").
  • if you have high blood pressure, diabetes, high cholesterol, have a family history of heart disease or stroke, or if you are a smoker.

Effects on the gastrointestinal tract

The combined use of ibuprofen with other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), including so-called COX-2 inhibitors (cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitors), should be avoided.

Gastrointestinal bleeding, ulcers, and perforations:

With all NSAIDs, gastrointestinal bleeding, ulcers, and perforations have been reported, sometimes with a fatal outcome. These have occurred at any time during therapy, with or without prior symptoms or a history of serious gastrointestinal events.

The risk of experiencing gastrointestinal bleeding, ulcers, and perforation is higher with increasing doses of NSAIDs and is higher in patients with a history of ulcers, especially with complications of bleeding or perforation (see section 2 “Do not take Ibuprofen Pharmaclan") and in elderly patients. These patients should start treatment with the lowest available dose. For these patients, as well as for patients who require additional treatment with low doses of acetylsalicylic acid or other medications that may increase the risk of gastrointestinal disorders, combination therapy with protective medications (e.g., misoprostol or proton pump inhibitors) is recommended.

If you have a history of side effects that affect the gastrointestinal tract, especially if you are an elderly person, you should consult a doctor in case of unusual abdominal symptoms (especially gastrointestinal bleeding), particularly at the start of treatment.

Cautiousness is recommended if you are also taking other medications that may increase the risk of ulcers or bleeding, e.g., oral corticosteroids, anticoagulants (blood thinners) such as warfarin, selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (used to treat psychiatric disorders, including depression), or platelet aggregation inhibitors such as acetylsalicylic acid (see section 2 “Other medicines and Ibuprofen Pharmaclan”).

Treatment should be discontinued and a doctor consulted if gastrointestinal bleeding or ulcers develop during treatment with ibuprofen.

Severe skin reactions

Severe skin reactions, 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), have been reported in association with ibuprofen treatment. Discontinue Ibuprofen Pharmaclan treatment and seek medical attention immediately if you notice any of the symptoms related to these severe skin reactions described in section 4.

Other warnings

Very rarely, severe acute hypersensitivity reactions (e.g., anaphylactic shock) have been observed. At the first signs of a hypersensitivity reaction after taking ibuprofen, treatment should be discontinued and a doctor consulted. Medically necessary measures, according to the symptoms, should be initiated by a healthcare professional.

Ibuprofen has been reported to cause signs of allergic reaction to this medicine, such as respiratory problems, swelling of the face and neck area (angioedema), and chest pain. Stop using Ibuprofen Pharmaclan immediately and contact your doctor or the emergency medical services immediately if you notice any of these signs.

Ibuprofen may temporarily inhibit platelet function (platelet aggregation). Therefore, patients with blood clotting disorders should be carefully monitored.

Prolonged use of any type of pain reliever for headaches can worsen them. If you experience or suspect this situation, you should seek medical advice and discontinue treatment. The diagnosis of medication-overuse headache (MOH) should be suspected in patients who have frequent or daily headaches despite (or due to) the regular use of headache medications.

During prolonged use of ibuprofen, regular monitoring of liver function tests, kidney function, and blood counts is required.

In general, the habitual intake of pain relievers, especially when combining several pain relievers, can lead to permanent kidney damage. This risk may increase under physical exertion associated with salt loss and dehydration. Therefore, it should be avoided.

Children and adolescents

Ibuprofen Pharmaclan 200 mg film-coated tablets

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

Ibuprofen Pharmaclan 200 mg film-coated tablets are not intended for children who weigh less than 20 kg or are under 7 years of age.

Ibuprofen Pharmaclan 400 mg film-coated tablets

There is a risk of kidney failure in dehydrated adolescents.

Other medicines and Ibuprofen Pharmaclan

Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking, have recently taken, or might take any other medicines. Ibuprofen Pharmaclan may affect or be affected by other medicines. For example:

  • anticoagulants and antiplatelet agents (i.e., blood thinners/prevent blood clotting, e.g., acetylsalicylic acid, warfarin, ticlopidine)
  • medicines that lower high blood pressure (ACE inhibitors such as captopril, beta-blockers such as atenolol, or angiotensin II receptor antagonists such as losartan) and diuretics (used to increase urine production)
  • Other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), including cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitors or acetylsalicylic acid - increased risk of ulcers or gastrointestinal bleeding
  • digoxin (used to treat various heart conditions), as the effect of digoxin may be enhanced
  • lithium (used to treat depression and mania), as the effect of lithium may be enhanced
  • phenytoin (used to treat seizures/epilepsy), as the effect of phenytoin may be enhanced
  • zidovudine (used to treat HIV/AIDS)
  • glucocorticoids (used in the treatment of inflammatory conditions), as they may increase the risk of gastrointestinal ulcers or bleeding
  • methotrexate (used to treat certain cancers and autoimmune diseases)
  • medicines known as immunosuppressants such as cyclosporine and tacrolimus, as kidney damage may occur
  • medicines known as selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), used for the treatment of depression
  • antibiotics called quinolones, such as ciprofloxacin, as the risk of seizures (attacks) may increase
  • aminoglycosides (a type of antibiotic), as NSAIDs may decrease the excretion of aminoglycosides
  • mifepristone, as NSAIDs may reduce the effect of mifepristone
  • diuretics (pills), as the effect of diuretics may be weakened
  • potassium-sparing diuretics, as they may cause hyperkalemia
  • probenecid or sulfinpyrazone (for the treatment of gout), as the excretion of ibuprofen may be delayed
  • cholestyramine (used to reduce cholesterol)
  • medicines known as sulfonylureas such as glibenclamide (used to treat diabetes), as blood sugar levels may be affected
  • voriconazole or fluconazole (a type of antifungal medication) (CYP2C9 inhibitors), as the effect of ibuprofen may increase. The dose of ibuprofen should be considered for reduction, particularly when using high doses of ibuprofen with voriconazole or fluconazole
  • Ginkgo biloba (herbal medicine) - increased risk of bleeding.
  • ritonavir (antiviral agent) may increase the plasma concentrations of NSAIDs
  • alcohol, bisphosphonates (used in osteoporosis), or pentoxifylline (used in peripheral arterial circulatory disorders) may enhance the gastrointestinal side effects and the risk of bleeding and ulcers
  • baclofen (a muscle relaxant) due to the high toxicity of baclofen

Some other medicines may also affect or be affected by ibuprofen treatment. Therefore, you should always consult your doctor or pharmacist before using ibuprofen with other medicines.

Ibuprofen Pharmaclan with food, drinks, and alcohol

Avoid drinking alcohol as it may enhance the side effects of this medicine, especially those affecting the stomach, intestine, or brain.

Pregnancy, breast-feeding, and fertility

If you are pregnant or breast-feeding, think you may be pregnant, or are planning to have a baby, ask your doctor for advice before taking this medicine.

Pregnancy

  • Do not take ibuprofen if you are in the last 3 months of pregnancy, as it may harm the fetus or cause problems during delivery. It may cause kidney and heart problems in the fetus. It may affect your tendency and that of your baby to bleed and make delivery delayed or longer than expected.
  • You should not take ibuprofen during the first 6 months of pregnancy unless it is absolutely necessary and your doctor advises it. If you need treatment during this period or while trying to become pregnant, the lowest dose should be used for the shortest possible time. If you take it for more than a few days from the 20th week of pregnancy onwards, ibuprofen may cause kidney problems in the fetus that can lead to low levels of the fluid that surrounds the baby (oligohydramnios) or narrowing of a blood vessel (ductus arteriosus) in the baby's heart. If you need treatment for more than a few days, your doctor may recommend additional monitoring.

Breast-feeding

Only small amounts of ibuprofen pass into breast milk, and it is generally not necessary to interrupt breast-feeding during short-term use of ibuprofen at the recommended dose for fever and pain.

Fertility

Ibuprofen Pharmaclan may make it more difficult to become pregnant. You should inform your doctor if you are planning to become pregnant or if you are having trouble becoming pregnant.

The product belongs to a group of medicines (NSAIDs) that may affect fertility in women. This effect is reversible upon discontinuation of the medicine.

Driving and using machines

Generally, the influence of ibuprofen on the ability to drive and use machines is negligible or insignificant. However, since with higher doses adverse reactions on the central nervous system, such as fatigue and dizziness, may occur, in individual cases, the ability to react and actively participate in road traffic and use machines may be impaired. This applies even more when combined with alcohol.

Ibuprofen Pharmaclan contains sodium

This medicine contains less than 1 mmol of sodium (23 mg) per film-coated tablet, i.e., it is essentially “sodium-free”.
