1. What Ibuprofeno Aurovitas Spain is and what it is used for

Ibuprofeno Aurovitas Spain belongs to a group of medicines called NSAIDs (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs), which reduce pain, inflammation, and fever.

This medicine is used for the symptomatic treatment of mild to moderate pain, including migraine, menstrual pain, and/or fever. In addition, ibuprofen is used for the symptomatic treatment of pain and inflammation in rheumatic diseases (e.g. rheumatoid arthritis), degenerative joint diseases (e.g. osteoarthritis), and pain and inflammation following soft tissue injuries.

2. What you need to know before taking Ibuprofeno Aurovitas Spain

Do not take Ibuprofeno Aurovitas Spain:

  • If you are allergic to ibuprofen or to any of the other components of this medicine (listed in section 6).
  • If you have had allergic reactions such as asthma, runny nose, itchy skin rash, or swelling of the lips, face, tongue, or throat after taking medications containing acetylsalicylic acid (such as aspirin) or other pain or anti-inflammatory medicines (NSAIDs).
  • If you have experienced gastrointestinal bleeding or perforation related to the use of pain or anti-inflammatory medicines (NSAIDs).
  • If you currently have a stomach or small intestine (duodenum) ulcer or bleeding, or if you have had two or more such episodes in the past.
  • If you have severe liver, kidney, or heart problems.
  • If you are in the third trimester of pregnancy.
  • If you have significant dehydration (caused by vomiting, diarrhea, or insufficient fluid intake).
  • If you have any active bleeding (including in the brain).
  • If you suffer from an unknown-origin disease leading to abnormal blood cell formation.

Do not administer this medicine to children weighing less than 20 kg or under 6 years of age.

Warnings and precautions

Consult your doctor or pharmacist before taking Ibuprofeno Aurovitas Spain if:

  • You have systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) or mixed connective tissue disease.
  • You have inherited a disorder of hemoglobin, the red pigment in blood (porphyria).
  • You have chronic inflammatory bowel diseases, such as ulcerative colitis (inflammation and ulcers in the colon), Crohn’s disease (affecting the digestive tract), or other stomach or intestinal disorders.
  • You have disorders affecting blood cell formation.
  • You have problems with normal blood clotting mechanisms.
  • You have allergies, allergic rhinitis, asthma, chronic inflammation of the nasal mucosa, sinuses, adenoids, or chronic obstructive respiratory disease, as the risk of developing airway narrowing with breathing difficulty is higher.
  • You have liver, kidney, or heart problems.
  • You have recently undergone surgery.
  • You are in the first six months of pregnancy.
  • You are breastfeeding.
  • You have an infection; see the section «Infections» below.
  • Signs of an allergic reaction to this medicine have been reported, such as breathing difficulties, facial and neck swelling (angioedema), and chest pain due to ibuprofen. Stop using this medicine immediately and contact your doctor or emergency medical services right away if you notice any of these signs.
  • Serious skin reactions have been reported with ibuprofen treatment, including exfoliative dermatitis, erythema multiforme, Stevens-Johnson syndrome, toxic epidermal necrolysis, drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS syndrome), and acute generalized exanthematous pustulosis (AGEP). Discontinue ibuprofen treatment and seek immediate medical attention if you notice any symptoms related to these serious skin reactions described in section 4.

Infections

Ibuprofen may mask signs of infection such as fever and pain. Therefore, this medicine may delay appropriate treatment of infection, increasing the risk of complications. This has been observed in bacterial pneumonia and skin infections associated with chickenpox. If you take this medicine while having an infection and infection symptoms persist or worsen, consult a doctor without delay.

Elderly patients

If you are elderly, you are more likely to experience adverse effects, especially gastrointestinal bleeding and perforation, which could be fatal.

Stomach and intestinal ulcers, perforation, and bleeding

If you have previously had a stomach or intestinal ulcer, especially if complicated by perforation or accompanied by bleeding, pay attention to any unusual abdominal symptoms and notify your doctor immediately, particularly if these symptoms occur at the beginning of treatment. This is because the risk of gastrointestinal bleeding or ulceration is higher in such cases, especially in elderly patients. If gastrointestinal bleeding or ulceration occurs, treatment must be discontinued.

Bleeding, ulceration, or perforation in the stomach or intestines may occur without warning signs, even in patients who have never previously experienced such problems. These events may also be fatal.

The risk of stomach or intestinal ulcers, perforation, or bleeding generally increases with higher doses of ibuprofen. The risk also increases if ibuprofen is taken simultaneously with other medicines (see below “Other medicines and Ibuprofeno Aurovitas Spain”).

Adverse effects can be minimized by using the lowest effective dose for the shortest duration necessary to control symptoms.

Skin reactions

Serious skin reactions have been reported with ibuprofen treatment. Stop taking ibuprofen and see a doctor immediately if you develop any skin rash, mucosal lesions, blisters, or other signs of allergy, as these may be early signs of a severe skin reaction. See section 4.

It is advisable to avoid using this medicine during chickenpox.

Effects on the heart and brain

Anti-inflammatory/analgesic medicines such as ibuprofen may be associated with a small increased risk of heart attack or stroke, especially when high doses are used. Do not exceed the recommended dose or duration of treatment.

You should discuss your treatment with your doctor or pharmacist before taking ibuprofen if:

  • You have heart problems, including heart failure, angina (chest pain), or have had a heart attack, bypass surgery, peripheral arterial disease (circulation problems in legs or feet due to narrowed or blocked arteries), or any type of stroke (including a “mini-stroke” or transient ischemic attack “TIA”).
  • You have high blood pressure, diabetes, high cholesterol, a family history of heart disease or stroke, or if you smoke.

Effects on the kidneys

Ibuprofen may cause kidney function problems even in patients who have not previously had kidney issues. This may lead to leg swelling and could even result in heart failure or high blood pressure in susceptible individuals.

Ibuprofen may cause kidney damage, especially in patients who already have kidney, heart, or liver problems, or who are taking diuretics or ACE inhibitors, as well as in elderly patients. However, discontinuation of ibuprofen treatment usually leads to recovery.

Aseptic meningitis (inflammation of the brain membrane without bacterial infection)

A few cases of meningitis (manifesting as neck stiffness, headache, nausea, vomiting, fever, or confusion) have been reported during ibuprofen treatment. Although it may be more likely in patients with autoimmune disorders such as systemic lupus erythematosus or mixed connective tissue disease, it has also been reported in patients without pre-existing chronic illness.

Other precautions

Very rare cases of severe acute hypersensitivity reactions (e.g., anaphylactic shock) have been observed. At the first signs of a hypersensitivity reaction after taking ibuprofen, stop treatment and inform your doctor immediately.

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

Prolonged use of any type of painkiller for headaches may worsen them. If you experience or suspect this condition, stop taking ibuprofen and consult your doctor. Medication-overuse headache should be suspected in patients who have frequent or daily headaches despite (or due to) regular use of headache medications.

Regular use of painkillers may cause permanent kidney damage and risk of kidney failure.

Ibuprofen may mask symptoms or signs of infection (fever, pain, swelling) and prolong bleeding time.

Ibuprofen may reduce your chances of becoming pregnant. Inform your doctor if you plan to become pregnant or if you have difficulty conceiving.

Children and adolescents

This medicine is contraindicated in children weighing less than 20 kg or under 6 years of age (see section 3).

It may cause kidney problems in dehydrated children and adolescents.

Other medicines and Ibuprofeno Aurovitas Spain

Inform your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking, have recently taken, or might need to take any other medicines.

Ibuprofen may interact with or be affected by other medicines. For example:

  • Other NSAIDs, including COX-2 inhibitors, as the risk of gastrointestinal ulcers and bleeding may increase.
  • Anticoagulants (prevent blood clotting), such as warfarin or heparin, as the anticoagulant effect may be enhanced.
  • Platelet aggregation inhibitors (prevent blood clotting) such as clopidogrel and ticlopidine.
  • Methotrexate (used to treat cancer or autoimmune diseases).
  • Digoxin (for treating various heart conditions), as the effect of digoxin may be enhanced.
  • Phenytoin (used to prevent epileptic seizures), as the effect of phenytoin may be enhanced.
  • Lithium (used to treat depression and mania), as the effect of lithium may be enhanced.
  • Diuretics (medicines used to increase urine elimination), as their effect may be reduced.
  • Potassium-sparing diuretics, as hyperkalemia may occur.
  • Medicines that lower blood pressure (ACE inhibitors such as captopril, beta-blockers such as atenolol, or angiotensin II receptor antagonists such as losartan).
  • Cholestyramine (used to treat high cholesterol levels).
  • Aminoglycosides (medicines against certain types of bacteria), as NSAIDs may reduce aminoglycoside elimination.
  • SSRIs (medicines for depression) such as paroxetine, sertraline, citalopram, as these may increase the risk of gastrointestinal bleeding.
  • Cyclosporine, tacrolimus (for immunosuppression after organ transplant), as kidney damage may occur.
  • Zidovudine or ritonavir (used to treat HIV patients).
  • Mifepristone, as NSAIDs may reduce the effect of mifepristone.
  • Probenecid or sulfinpyrazone (for treating gout), as they may delay ibuprofen elimination.
  • Quinolone antibiotics, as the risk of seizures may increase.
  • Sulfonylureas (for treating type 2 diabetes), as blood sugar levels may be affected.
  • Glucocorticoids (used to treat inflammation), as they may increase the risk of gastrointestinal ulcers or bleeding.
  • Bisphosphonates (used for osteoporosis, Paget’s disease, and to reduce high blood calcium levels).
  • Pentoxifylline (oxpentifylline), used to treat circulatory disease in leg or arm arteries.
  • Baclofen (a muscle relaxant), due to its high toxicity.
  • Medicinal preparations of Ginkgo biloba (may increase bleeding risk when taken with ibuprofen).
  • Voriconazole and fluconazole (CYP2C9 inhibitors) (used to treat fungal infections), as the effect of ibuprofen may increase. A reduction in ibuprofen dose should be considered, especially when high doses of ibuprofen are used together with voriconazole or fluconazole.

Other medicines may also interact with or be affected by ibuprofen treatment. Therefore, always consult your doctor or pharmacist before using ibuprofen with other medicines.

Taking Ibuprofeno Aurovitas Spain with alcohol

Avoid alcohol, as it may increase adverse reactions of ibuprofen, especially those affecting the stomach, intestine, or central nervous system.

Pregnancy, breastfeeding, and fertility

If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, think you may be pregnant, or plan to become pregnant, consult your doctor or pharmacist before using this medicine.

Do not take ibuprofen during the last 3 months of pregnancy, as it may harm the fetus or cause problems during delivery. It may cause kidney, lung, and heart problems in your unborn baby. It may affect your tendency and your baby’s tendency to bleed and may delay or prolong labor. Do not take ibuprofen during the first 6 months of pregnancy unless clearly necessary and as directed by your doctor. If treatment is needed during this period or while trying to conceive, the lowest possible dose should be taken for the shortest possible time. From week 20 of pregnancy, ibuprofen may cause kidney problems in your fetus if taken for more than a few days, leading to low levels of amniotic fluid surrounding the baby (oligohydramnios) or narrowing of blood vessels (ductus arteriosus) in the baby’s heart. If treatment is needed for longer than a few days, your doctor may recommend additional monitoring.

Ibuprofen passes into breast milk in very small amounts, and generally, breastfeeding does not need to be stopped during short-term treatment. However, if a longer treatment is prescribed, early weaning should be considered.

Driving and using machines

Generally, ibuprofen does not have adverse effects on the ability to drive or use machinery. However, at high doses, side effects such as fatigue, drowsiness, dizziness (reported as common), and visual disturbances (reported as uncommon) may occur, potentially affecting the ability to drive or operate machinery in individual cases. This effect is enhanced by simultaneous alcohol consumption.

Ibuprofeno Aurovitas Spain contains sodium: This medicine contains less than 1 mmol of sodium (23 mg) per tablet; hence, it is essentially “sodium-free”.

If you take more Ibuprofen Aurovitas Spain than you should

In case of overdose or accidental ingestion, consult your doctor or pharmacist immediately or call the Toxicology Information Service at telephone number: 91 562 04 20, indicating the medicine and the amount ingested. It is recommended to bring the medicine packaging and leaflet to the healthcare professional.

Symptoms of overdose may include nausea, stomach pain, vomiting (which may contain blood-stained material), gastrointestinal bleeding (see also section 4), diarrhoea, headache, tinnitus, confusion, and involuntary eye movements. Agitation, drowsiness, disorientation, or coma may also occur. Occasionally, patients may develop seizures. At high doses, symptoms such as drowsiness, chest pain, palpitations, loss of consciousness, seizures (mainly in children), weakness, dizziness, blood in the urine, low blood potassium levels, metabolic acidosis, chills, and breathing difficulties have been reported. In addition, prothrombin time/INR may be prolonged, probably due to interference with the actions of circulating coagulation factors. Acute renal failure and liver damage may occur. Asthma may be exacerbated in asthmatic patients. In addition, low blood pressure and reduced breathing may occur.

If you forget to take Ibuprofen Aurovitas Spain

Do not take a double dose to make up for forgotten doses.

If you have any further questions about the use of this medicine, ask your doctor or pharmacist.
