ATX code M01A X01.

Pharmacological properties

The active substance of the drug – nabumetone – belongs to non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). Has anti-inflammatory, antipyretic, analgesic effect. The mechanism of action is associated with blockade of cyclooxygenase, which leads to disruption of arachidonic acid metabolism and decreased concentrations of prostaglandins, thromboxanes. Inhibits exudative and proliferative processes in the inflammatory focus, reduces the concentration of bradykinin and histamine, as well as increases the threshold of susceptibility to pain receptors. Hypothermic action is due to a decrease in the concentration of pyrogens in the cerebrospinal fluid and hypothalamic area, increased heat transfer (no effect on heat production).
A characteristic feature of nabumetone is the lack of effect on the gastric mucosa. A lower incidence of peptic ulcer disease, bleeding and perforation was reported compared to other NSAIDs. Has little effect on platelet aggregation caused by collagen and does not affect the bleeding time.

Indication:

  • Acute and chronic osteoarthritis.
  • Rheumatoid arthritis.
  • Soft tissue rheumatism.
  • Ankylosing spondylitis.

Contraindication

Hypersensitivity to the active substance or to other components of the drug.
History of hypersensitivity (eg, bronchial asthma, angioneurotic edema, urticaria, rhinitis) associated with the use of acetylsalicylic acid and other nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs.
Active peptic ulcer disease or a history of gastrointestinal bleeding, perforation or peptic ulcer disease (2 or more episodes).
History of gastrointestinal bleeding or perforation associated with nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs.
Severe heart and / or hepatic and / or renal failure.
Cerebrovascular or other active form of bleeding, hemorrhagic diathesis.

Use during pregnancy or breastfeeding

The safety and efficacy of nabumetone in pregnant women have not been established. Nabumetone, like other nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, can cause premature closure of the arterial duct in the fetus, the development of heart and lung defects.
The drug is contraindicated for use in the III trimester of pregnancy. The use of the drug in the I and II trimesters of pregnancy is possible when the potential benefit to the mother outweighs the potential risk to the fetus.

Breastfeeding period
The excretion of nabumetone in breast milk has not been studied. If you use the drug should stop breastfeeding.
