1. What Velyntra is and what it is used for
This medicinal product contains two active substances: tramadol hydrochloride and celecoxib.
Tramadol is an analgesic belonging to the opioid group that acts on the central nervous system. It relieves pain by acting on specific nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord.
Celecoxib is an anti-inflammatory analgesic belonging to a class of medicines known as non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs).
Velyntra is used for the short-term symptomatic treatment of moderate to severe somatic pain in adults, such as postoperative pain (e.g., orthopedic and trauma surgery, or after dental surgical procedures) or musculoskeletal pain (injuries to muscles, ligaments, tendons, and joints).
2. What you need to know before taking Velyntra
Do not take Velyntra
- if you are allergic to tramadol hydrochloride, celecoxib, or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6);
- if you have acute intoxication due to alcohol, sleeping pills, painkillers, or other psychotropic medicines (medicines affecting mood and emotions);
- if you are also taking monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs) (medicines used to treat depression), or if you have taken them within the last two weeks before starting treatment with this medicine;
- if you have been diagnosed with epilepsy and your seizures are not adequately controlled by your treatment;
- as a substitute medication in the treatment of withdrawal syndrome;
- if you have previously had an allergic reaction to medicines in the group called "sulfonamides" (e.g., certain antibiotics used to treat infections);
- if you currently have a stomach or intestinal ulcer, or bleeding in your stomach or intestines;
- if you have previously experienced any of the following symptoms after taking acetylsalicylic acid or any other nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory and analgesic drug (NSAID): asthma, nasal polyps, severe nasal congestion, or allergic reactions such as itchy rash, swelling of the face, lips, tongue or throat, difficulty breathing or wheezing;
- if you are pregnant. If you could become pregnant during treatment, you should consult your doctor about using contraceptive methods;
- if you are breastfeeding;
- if you have severe liver disease;
- if you have severe kidney disease;
- if you have inflammatory bowel disease such as ulcerative colitis or Crohn's disease;
- if you have heart failure, diagnosed ischemic heart disease, or cerebrovascular disease, e.g., you have been diagnosed with a heart attack, stroke, or transient ischemic attack (temporary reduction in blood flow to the brain; also known as "mini-stroke"), angina pectoris, or obstruction of blood vessels to the heart or brain;
- if you have or have had circulatory problems (peripheral arterial disease) or have undergone surgery on the arteries in your legs.
Warnings and precautions
Consult your doctor or pharmacist before starting to take Velyntra:
- if you think you are addicted to other painkillers (opioids);
- if you have disorders of consciousness (if you feel you might faint);
- if you experience cold sweating, paleness, rapid pulse, rapid breathing, dizziness… (possible symptoms and signs of shock, among others);
- if a healthcare professional has informed you that your intracranial pressure is higher than normal. This may occur after a head injury or due to diseases affecting the brain such as a brain tumor;
- if you have difficulty breathing;
- if you are prone to epilepsy or seizures, as the risk of these may increase;

- if you have or have previously had a stomach or intestinal ulcer or bleeding;
- if you are taking acetylsalicylic acid (even at low doses such as for cardioprotection);
- if you are taking antiplatelet therapies (e.g., clopidogrel, dipyridamole);
- if you are receiving medicines to reduce blood clotting (e.g., acenocoumarol, acenocoumarol analog anticoagulants, or new oral anticoagulants, e.g.: apixaban);
- if you are receiving corticosteroid medicines (e.g.: prednisone);
- if you are taking this medicine at the same time as other non-acetylsalicylic acid NSAIDs such as ibuprofen or diclofenac. The combined use of these medicines should be avoided;
- if you are a smoker, have diabetes, high blood pressure, or high cholesterol;
- if your heart, liver, or kidneys are not functioning properly, your doctor may want to monitor you regularly;
- if you have fluid retention (such as swollen feet or ankles);
- if you are dehydrated, for example due to vomiting, diarrhea, or use of diuretics (used to treat excess fluid in the body);
- if you have previously experienced a severe allergic reaction or a serious skin reaction to any medicine;
- if you feel unwell due to an infection or think you have an infection, as taking this medicine may mask fever or other signs of infection and inflammation;
- if you are over 65 years old, your doctor will want to monitor you regularly.
Talk to your doctor or pharmacist if you experience any of the following symptoms while taking this medicine:
- Extreme fatigue, loss of appetite, severe abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, or low blood pressure. These may indicate adrenal insufficiency (low cortisol levels). If you have these symptoms, contact your doctor, who will decide whether you need hormonal supplements.
Sleep-related breathing disorders
This medicine may cause sleep-related breathing disorders, such as sleep apnea (pauses in breathing during sleep) and sleep-related hypoxemia (low blood oxygen levels). Symptoms may include pauses in breathing during sleep, nighttime awakenings due to breathing difficulties, difficulty maintaining sleep, or excessive daytime sleepiness. If you or someone else notices these symptoms, contact your doctor.
There is a low risk of developing serotonin syndrome after taking tramadol, especially when combined with certain antidepressants or with tramadol as monotherapy. Seek immediate medical advice if you experience any symptoms associated with this serious condition (see section 4 "Possible side effects").
Seizures have been reported mainly with high doses of tramadol.
Tolerance, dependence, and addiction
This medicine contains tramadol, which is an opioid medicine. Repeated use of opioids may make the medicine less effective (the body becomes accustomed to it, known as pharmacological tolerance). Repeated use of this medicine may also lead to dependence, abuse, and addiction, which could result in a potentially fatal overdose. The risk of these adverse effects may be higher with higher doses and prolonged use.
Dependence or addiction may cause a feeling of lack of control over the amount of medicine you need to use or how often you need to use it.
The risk of dependence or addiction varies from person to person. The risk of becoming dependent or addicted to this medicine may be higher if:
- You or any member of your family has abused alcohol or experienced dependence on alcohol, prescription medicines, or illegal drugs ("addiction").
- You are a smoker.
- You have ever had mood disorders (depression, anxiety, or a personality disorder) or have been treated by a psychiatrist for other mental illnesses.
If you notice any of the following symptoms while using this medicine, it could be a sign of dependence or addiction:
- You need to use the medicine for longer than prescribed by your doctor.
- You need to use a higher dose than recommended.
- You are using the medicine for reasons other than those prescribed, for example, "to feel calm" or "to help you sleep."
- You have made repeated unsuccessful attempts to stop using the medicine or control its use.
- You feel unwell when you stop using the medicine, and feel better once you take it again ("withdrawal effects").
If you notice any of these signs, consult your doctor to determine the best treatment approach for you, when it is appropriate to stop the medicine, and how to do so safely (see section 3, if you interrupt treatment with Velyntra).
You may also experience withdrawal symptoms when you stop taking this medicine. Your doctor will inform you how long you should take this medicine, when to stop, and how to do so safely. Inform your doctor if any of these problems occur during treatment with this medicine or if they occurred in the past.
Tramadol is metabolized by an enzyme in the liver. Some people have a variation of this enzyme, which may affect individuals differently. In some people, sufficient pain relief may not be achieved, while others may be more likely to experience serious adverse effects. If you notice any of the following adverse effects, you must stop taking this medicine and consult a doctor immediately: slow or shallow breathing, confusion, drowsiness, constricted pupils, general malaise or vomiting, constipation, loss of appetite.
Like other NSAIDs (e.g., ibuprofen or diclofenac), celecoxib (a component of this medicine) may increase your blood pressure, so your doctor may periodically monitor it.
Some cases of serious liver reactions have been reported with celecoxib, including severe hepatitis, liver damage, and liver failure (some fatal or requiring liver transplantation). Most serious liver reactions with a reported onset occurred within the first month of treatment.
Children and adolescents
This medicine has not been studied in children or adolescents. Therefore, its safety and efficacy have not been established, and the medicine should not be used in children or adolescents.
The use of tramadol is not recommended in children with respiratory problems, as symptoms of tramadol toxicity may worsen in these patients.
Other medicines and Velyntra
Inform your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking, have recently taken, or might need to take any other medicines, including those obtained without a prescription. Some medicines should not be taken together, and others may require dose adjustments if used together.
Do not take this medicine with:
- Monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs), or within 2 weeks before or after taking these medicines. MAOIs are medicines used to treat depression.
Inform your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking, have recently taken, or might need to take any of the following medicines:
- Other painkillers such as morphine and codeine (also used as a cough medicine), or alcohol.
- Tranquilizers or sleeping pills (e.g., benzodiazepines).
- Medicines that may cause seizures (fits), such as certain antidepressants or antipsychotics.
- Antidepressants. Velyntra may interact with these medicines and you may experience serotonin syndrome (see section 4 "Possible side effects").
- Anticoagulants (e.g., acenocoumarol, apixaban).
- Dextromethorphan (used to treat cough).
- ACE inhibitors, angiotensin II antagonists, beta-blockers, and diuretics (used to control high blood pressure and heart disorders).
- Fluconazole, ketoconazole, rifampicin, isoniazid, and erythromycin (used to treat fungal and bacterial infections).
- Lithium (used to treat certain types of depression).
- Other medicines used to treat depression, sleep disorders, high blood pressure, or irregular heartbeat (quinidine, paroxetine, fluoxetine, sertraline, amitriptyline).
- Neuroleptics (used to treat certain mental disorders).
- Methotrexate (used in rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, and leukemia).
- Barbiturates (used to treat epilepsy/seizures and certain sleep disorders).
- Cyclosporine and tacrolimus (used to suppress the immune system, e.g., after transplants).
- Ritonavir (treatment of HIV-1 infected patients in combination with other medicines).

The effect and duration of pain relief from treatment may be reduced if you take medicines containing:
- Carbamazepine (for epileptic seizures).
- Ondansetron (to prevent nausea).
This medicine may be taken with low-dose acetylsalicylic acid (75 mg daily or less). Seek advice from your doctor before taking both medicines together.
Taking Velyntra with food and alcohol
This medicine may be taken with or without food. Do not drink alcohol during treatment with this medicine, as it may increase adverse effects, especially those affecting the nervous and digestive systems. For instructions on how to take this medicine, see section 3.
Pregnancy, breastfeeding, and fertility
The use of this medicine is contraindicated during pregnancy and while breastfeeding.
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.
Tramadol (a component of this medicine) is excreted in breast milk.
Celecoxib (a component of this medicine) may make it more difficult to become pregnant. You should inform your doctor if you plan to become pregnant or if you are experiencing difficulties in becoming pregnant.
Driving and using machines
This medicine may cause drowsiness, dizziness, and blurred vision and therefore may affect your ability to drive and use machines. If affected, do not drive cars or any other vehicle, or operate machinery or electrical tools until symptoms resolve.
Velyntra contains mannitol and sodium
It may cause a mild laxative effect.
This medicine contains less than 1 mmol of sodium (23 mg) per tablet; hence, it is essentially "sodium-free".

If you stop taking Velyntra
Pain is generally self-limiting and requires treatment for only a few days or weeks. If you stop or end treatment with this medicine too early, pain may return. If you wish to stop treatment due to undesirable effects, consult your doctor.
Abruptly stopping treatment with this medicine may cause worsening of symptoms (see Section 3 “How to take Velyntra”).
Generally, no adverse effects are expected after stopping treatment with this medicine.
