Pharmacological properties
Neofen Belupo Plus gel is intended for external use. Contains the active substance – ibuprofen, a product of phenylpropionic acid. Ibuprofen has a pronounced anti-inflammatory and analgesic effect by inhibiting the synthesis of prostaglandin, which occurs directly in the inflammatory focus. As the drug is a volatile water-alcohol gel, it has a calming and cooling effect at the application site.
Indication
Rheumatic pain, muscle pain, back pain, pain and swelling from sprains, sprains and other sports injuries, as well as neuralgia.
Contraindication
Hypersensitivity to ibuprofen or to any of the components of the gel; hypersensitivity reactions (eg bronchial asthma, rhinitis, Quincke’s edema or urticaria) after administration of acetylsalicylic acid or other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs; ulcerative lesions of the gastrointestinal tract; dermatoses; wet eczema.
Do not apply to the affected skin and open wounds.
Do not use under occlusive dressings.
Children
Not recommended for children under 12 years.
Use during pregnancy or breastfeeding
There is no experience of using the gel during pregnancy or breastfeeding, so the gel should not be used in this category of patients.
Method of application and dosage
Use externally for adults and children over 12 years of age. Neofen Belupo Plus gel is applied in a thin layer on the skin in the area of inflammation in strips 4-10 cm long (corresponding to 50-125 mg of ibuprofen) and easily rubbed until completely absorbed into the skin. The drug is used 3-4 times a day with breaks of at least 4 hours. Wash your hands after each application of the gel. The recommended dosage should be followed. Do not use under an occlusive dressing.
The duration of treatment depends on the degree and nature of the lesion and is determined by the doctor according to the clinical picture. After 2 weeks of use, the appropriateness of treatment should be evaluated, especially in case of recovery or worsening of symptoms.
Overdose
The probability of overdose when using ibuprofen in the form of a gel for external use is negligible. However, in case of overdose, side effects are possible, which are observed with the systemic use of ibuprofen (dyspeptic symptoms: nausea, heartburn, vomiting, flatulence; allergic skin reactions; headache, dizziness; hypotension). If symptoms of overdose appear, the drug should be discontinued and a doctor should be consulted.
If the recommended dose is exceeded, the gel should be washed off with water. The specific antidote is unknown.
