Special conditions:
During the period of treatment with the drug, a systematic monitoring of the pattern of peripheral blood, liver and kidney function, and examination of feces for occult blood should be carried out.
Due to the important role of prostaglandins in maintaining renal blood flow, special care should be taken when prescribing to patients with heart failure, as well as in the treatment of elderly patients taking diuretics, and patients who, for whatever reason, have a decrease in the volume of circulating blood (i.e. hours after extensive surgery). If diclofenac is prescribed in such cases, it is recommended that kidney function be monitored as a precaution.
If, after the use of the drug, an increase in the activity of “hepatic” transaminases is observed, or clinical symptoms of hepatotoxicity are noted (including nausea, fatigue, drowsiness, diarrhea, skin itching, jaundice), treatment should be stopped and should not be repeated in the future.
Diclofenac (like other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs) can cause hyperkalemia.
Due to the negative effect on fertility, women who wish to become pregnant are not recommended to use the drug. In patients with infertility (including those undergoing examination), it is recommended to cancel the drug.
The effect of a medicinal product for medical use on the ability to drive vehicles, mechanisms
During the treatment period, care must be taken when driving vehicles and engaging in other potentially dangerous activities that require an increased concentration of attention and speed of psychomotor reactions.
Drug interaction:
With simultaneous use with Clodifen Neuro:
- the effect of diuretics decreases, while the use of potassium-sparing diuretics increases the risk of hyperkalemia;
- increased plasma concentration of digoxin, methotrexate, lithium and cyclosporin;
- the effects of antihypertensive and hypnotics are reduced;
- the risk of bleeding (usually gastrointestinal bleeding) increases during therapy with anticoagulants and thrombolytic agents (alteplase, streptokinase, urokinase);
- the likelihood of unwanted reactions of other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and glucocorticosteroids (gastrointestinal bleeding), the toxicity of methotrexate and the nephrotoxicity of cyclosporine are increased;
- the effect of hypoglycemic agents decreases;
- the antiparkinsonian effectiveness of levodopa decreases;
- cefamandol, cefoperazone, cefotetan, valproic acid increase the incidence of hypoprothrombinemia;
- ethanol, colchicine, corticotropin, serotonin reuptake inhibitors and St. John's wort preparations increase the risk of gastrointestinal bleeding;
- diclofenac enhances the action of drugs that cause photosensitivity.
Concomitant use with paracetamol increases the risk of nephrotoxic effects of diclofenac.
Acetylsalicylic acid reduces the concentration of diclofenac in the blood.
Cyclosporin and gold preparations increase the effect of diclofenac on the synthesis of prostaglandins in the kidneys, which increases the risk of nephrotoxicity.
Drugs that block tubular secretion increase the plasma concentration of diclofenac, thereby increasing its toxicity.
Ethanol dramatically reduces the absorption of thiamine (blood levels may decrease by 30%).
Long-term anticonvulsant treatment can lead to thiamine deficiency.
The use of colchicine and biguanides reduces the absorption of cyanocobalamin.
While taking the drug, it is not recommended to take multivitamin complexes, which include B vitamins.
Pharmacodynamics:
Clodifen Neuro is a combination of diclofenac with B vitamins. Diclofenac has a pronounced anti-inflammatory, analgesic and moderate antipyretic effect.
Pharmacodynamics:
The mechanism of action of diclofenac is associated with inhibition of the activity of cyclooxygenase, the main enzyme in the metabolism of arachidonic acid, which is a precursor of prostaglandins, which play a major role in the pathogenesis of inflammation, pain, and fever.
Thiamine (vitamin B1) in the human body as a result of phosphorylation processes turns into cocarboxylase, which is a coenzyme of many enzyme reactions. Vitamin B1 plays an important role in carbohydrate, protein and fat metabolism. Actively involved in the processes of nervous excitation in synapses.
Pyridoxine (vitamin B6) is necessary for the normal functioning of the central and peripheral nervous system. In phosphorylated form it is a coenzyme in the metabolism of amino acids (decarboxylation, transamination). It acts as a coenzyme of the most important enzymes that act in nerve tissues.
Cyanocobalamin (vitamin B12) is necessary for the normal blood formation and maturation of red blood cells, and is also involved in a number of biochemical reactions that ensure the vital activity of the body - in the transfer of methyl groups, in the synthesis of nucleic acids, protein, in the exchange of amino acids, carbohydrates, lipids.
Pharmokinetics:
Suction and distribution.
The absorption of diclofenac is fast and complete, food slows down the absorption rate by 1-4 hours and reduces the maximum concentration by 40%. After oral administration of 50 mg, the maximum concentration (Cmax) of 1.4 μg / ml is reached after 2-3 hours. The plasma concentration is linearly dependent on the dose administered.
Changes in the pharmacokinetics of diclofenac against the background of repeated administration are not observed, do not cumulate.
Bioavailability is 50%. The binding of diclofenac to plasma proteins is more than 99% (most of it binds to albumin). Penetrates into the synovial fluid; the maximum concentration in the synovial fluid is observed 2-4 hours later than in plasma. The half-life from the synovial fluid is 3-6 hours (the concentration of the active substance in the synovial fluid 4-6 hours after administration of the drug is higher than in plasma, and remains higher for another 12 hours).
Thiamine and pyridoxine are absorbed in the upper small intestine. The absorption of cyanocobalamin depends to a large extent on the presence of an internal factor in the body (in the stomach and upper part of the small intestine), in the future, the delivery of vitamin in the tissue is determined by the transport protein transcobalamin.
The vitamins that make up Clodifen Neuro are water-soluble, which eliminates the possibility of their cumulation in the body.
Metabolism. Diclofenac metabolism occurs in the liver, 50% of the active substance is metabolized during the "first passage" through the liver. Metabolism occurs as a result of repeated or single hydroxylation and conjugation with glucuronic acid. The enzyme system of cytochrome P450, the CYP2C9 isoenzyme, takes part in the metabolism of the drug. The pharmacological activity of metabolites is lower than diclofenac. The systemic clearance is 350 ml / min, the distribution volume is 550 ml / kg.
Thiamine and pyridoxine are metabolized in the liver. The degree of absorption depends on the dose, with an overdose, the excretion of thiamine and pyridoxine through the intestine significantly increases. Cyanocobalamin metabolism occurs in the liver.
Breeding.
The half-life of diclofenac from plasma is 2 hours. 65% of the administered dose is excreted in the form of metabolites by the kidneys; less than 1% is excreted unchanged, the rest of the dose is excreted in the form of metabolites with bile. In patients with severe renal failure (creatinine clearance less than 10 ml / min), excretion of metabolites with bile increases, while there is no increase in their concentration in the blood.
In patients with chronic hepatitis or compensated liver cirrhosis, the pharmacokinetic parameters of diclofenac do not change. Diclofenac passes into breast milk.
Thiamine and pyridoxine are excreted by the kidneys (about 8-10% - unchanged).
Cyanocobalamin is excreted mainly with bile, the degree of excretion by the kidneys is variable - from 6 to 30%.
