Pharmacokinetics:

Absorption is rapid and complete. Diclofenac contained in capsules Naklofen Duo in the form of enteric coated pellets and pellets with sustained release, so capsules Naklofen Duo have a rapid and prolonged effect.

Cmax in plasma observed after 30-60 min after administration. Therapeutic concentration be maintained twice as long than when using tablets, enteric coated with a film cover. Concentration in plasma is in linear dependence on the received dose. Changes in the pharmacokinetics of diclofenac amid repeated introduction is not marked. Not koumouliruet in compliance with the recommended interval between doses. Bioavailability of 50%. The plasma protein binding is more than 99% (the majority is bound to albumin). Penetrates into synovial fluid Cmax in synovial fluid is observed in 2-4 hours later than in plasma. Diclofenac excreted more slowly from the synovial fluid than from plasma.

Metabolism: 50% of the active substance is metabolized during the first pass through the liver. Metabolism occurs as a result of repeated or single hydroxylation and conjugation with glucuronic acid. In the metabolism of the drug involved enzyme system P450CYP2C9. The pharmacological activity of metabolites below, than diclofenac.

Systemic Cl is 260 ml/min, the volume of 550 ml/kg. T1/2 from plasma — about 2 h About 70% of the administered dose was excreted in the form of pharmacologically inactive metabolites by the kidneys less than 1% in an unmodified form, the rest of the dose as metabolites in the bile.

In patients with severe renal insufficiency (Cl creatinine less than 10 ml/min) increases the excretion of metabolites in bile, with increase of their concentration in blood is not observed.

In patients with chronic hepatitis or compensated liver cirrhosis and elderly patients the pharmacokinetic parameters of diclofenac are not changed. Diclofenac passes into breast milk.

Description pharmacological action:

Diclofenac sodium is a NSAID that has analgesic, anti-inflammatory and antipyretic activity. The main mechanism of its action and the associated side effects are indiscriminate inhibition of the activity of enzymes COX-1 and COX-2 that leads to the violation of arachidonic acid metabolism, reduce the synthesis of PG, prostacyclin and thromboxane. Reduced levels of various GHGs in the urine, the gastric mucosa and synovial fluid.

Most effective for pain of an inflammatory nature. In rheumatic diseases anti-inflammatory and analgesic effect of diclofenac contributes to a significant decrease in severity of pain, morning stiffness, swelling of joints that improves a functional condition of the joint. In trauma, postoperative diclofenac reduces pain and inflammatory swelling. Like all NSAIDs, diclofenac has antiplatelet activity. At therapeutic doses of diclofenac sodium has almost no effect on bleeding time. Prolonged treatment analgesic effect of diclofenac sodium is not reduced.

Drug interactions:

Increases concentration in plasma digoxin, methotrexate, lithium preparations and cyclosporine. Reduces effect of diuretics against kalisberegath dioretikov increases risk giperkaliemii against the background of anticoagulants, antiplatelet and thrombolytic drugs (alteplase, streptokinase, urokinase) increases the risk of haemorrhage (often gastrointestinal).

Reduces effect of hypotensive and hypnotic drugs. Increases the likelihood of side effects of other NSAIDs and corticosteroids (bleeding from the gastrointestinal tract), toxicity of methotrexate and nephrotoxicity of cyclosporine.

Acetylsalicylic acid reduces the concentration of diclofenac in the blood. Simultaneous use with paracetamol increases the risk of nephrotoxic effects of diclofenac.

Hypoglycemic drugs — you may experience Hypo - or hyperglycemia. When this combination of funds is necessary to control the level of sugar in the blood.

Cefamandole, cefoperazone, cefotetan, valproic acid and plicamycin increase the frequency of gipoprotrombinemii.

Cyclosporine and gold drugs increase the effect of diclofenac on the synthesis of PG in the kidney, which is manifested by increased nephrotoxicity.

Selective inhibitors of serotonin reuptake increase the risk of bleeding from the gastrointestinal tract.

Coadministration with ethanol, colchicine, corticotropin, and drugs St. John's wort increases the risk of bleeding in the digestive tract.

Drugs that cause photosensitivity, increase the sensitizing action of diclofenac to UV irradiation.

Drugs that block tubular secretion, increase in plasma concentration of diclofenac, thereby increasing its toxicity.

Antibacterial drugs from the group chinolone — the risk of seizures.

Method of application and dose:

Inside, the capsule should be swallowed whole with water at the end or after a meal, usually in the morning. Are assigned individually, taking into account the severity of the disease. Adults usually appoint 1 KAPS. 75 mg 1-2 times a day. The maximum daily dose — 150 mg.

Overdose:

Symptoms: vomiting, nausea, abdominal pain, bleeding from the gastrointestinal tract, diarrhea, headache, dizziness, tinnitus, irritability, symptoms of hyperventilation with increased convulsive readiness, convulsions, in large overdose, acute renal failure, hepatotoxic effects.

Treatment: gastric lavage, activated charcoal, symptomatic therapy, aimed at addressing the increase in BP, renal dysfunction, seizures, irritation of the gastrointestinal tract, respiratory depression. Forced diuresis, hemodialysis is ineffective (significant relationship with the squirrels and intensive metabolism).

Special instructions:

In order to quickly achieve the desired therapeutic effect take the drug 30 minutes before a meal. In other cases, taking before, during or after a meal whole, squeezed enough water.

To reduce the risk of adverse effects from the blood should use the minimum effective dose minimum possible short course.

With caution should use the drug in ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease because of possible exacerbation of the disease.

Long-term use of diclofenac is possible, although in rare cases, the development of serious hepatotoxic reactions, therefore it is recommended to investigate the function of the liver.

Due to the important role of PG in maintaining renal blood flow should be particularly careful when prescribing the drug to patients with cardiac or renal insufficiency and in the treatment of elderly people taking diuretics, and patients who, for any reason, a decrease in BCC (for example after major surgery). If in such cases, prescribe diclofenac, recommended as a precaution to monitor kidney function.

With caution should designate diclofenac in patients with coagulation disorders of blood, porphyria, epilepsy, as well as patients receiving anticoagulants or fibrinolytic.

When conducting long-term therapy should be monitored picture peripheral blood, analysis of stool for occult blood.

In connection with negative effect on fertility, women wishing to become pregnant, the drug is not recommended. In patients with infertility (including passing the examination) are advised to stop the drug.

Patients taking the drug, you must abstain from alcohol.

Infectious diseases anti-inflammatory and antipyretic effects of diclofenac sodium may mask the symptoms of these diseases.

The amount of sucrose contained in the product, does not affect patients with the following conditions: the enzyme lactase deficiency, galactosemia and malabsorption syndrome glucose/galactose.

Impact on the ability to drive a car or other mechanical means. During the period of treatment may decrease the speed of mental and motor reactions, so you should refrain from activities potentially hazardous activities, require high concentration and psychomotor speed reactions.
