Full Prescribing Information
Indications & Usage
INDICATIONS AND USAGE Hydrocodone Bitartrate and Ibuprofen Tablets are indicated for the short-term management of acute pain severe enough to require an opioid analgesic and for which alternative treatments are inadequate. Limitations of Use Carefully consider the potential benefits and risks of Hydrocodone Bitartrate and Ibuprofen Tablets and other treatment options before deciding to use Hydrocodone Bitartrate and Ibuprofen Tablets Use the lowest effective dosage for the shortest duration consistent with individual patient treatment goals (see WARNINGS: Cardiovascular Thrombotic Events, Gastrointestinal Bleeding, Ulceration, and Perforation ). Do not use Hydrocodone Bitartrate and Ibuprofen Tablets for the treatment of conditions such as osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis. Because of the risks of addiction, abuse, misuse, overdose and death, which can occur at any dosage or duration and persist over the course of therapy (see WARNINGS ), reserve opioid analgesics, including Hydrocodone Bitartrate and Ibuprofen Tablets for use in patients for whom alternative treatment options are ineffective, not tolerated, or would be otherwise inadequate to provide sufficient management of …
Dosage & Administration
DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION Hydrocodone Bitartrate and Ibuprofen Tablets should be prescribed only by healthcare professionals who are knowledgeable about the use of opioids and how to mitigate the associated risks. Use the lowest effective dosage for the shortest duration of time consistent with individual patient treatment goals [see Warnings]. Because the risk of overdose increases as opioid doses increase, reserve titration to higher doses of Hydrocodone Bitartrate and Ibuprofen Tablets for patients in whom lower doses are insufficiently effective and in whom the expected benefits of using a higher dose opioid clearly outweigh the substantial risks. Many acute pain conditions (e.g., the pain that occurs with a number of surgical procedures or acute musculoskeletal injuries) require no more than a few days of an opioid analgesic. Clinical guidelines on opioid prescribing for some acute pain conditions are available. There is variability in the opioid analgesic dose and duration needed to adequately manage pain due both to the cause of pain and to individual patient factors. Initiate the dosing regimen for each patient individually, taking into account the patient’s underlying caus…
Warnings
WARNINGS Hydrocodone Component Addiction, Abuse, and Misuse Hydrocodone Bitartrate and Ibuprofen Tablets contains hydrocodone, a Schedule II controlled substance. As an opioid- containing product, Hydrocodone Bitartrate and Ibuprofen Tablets exposes users to the risks of addiction, abuse, and misuse (see DRUG ABUSE AND DEPENDENCE). Although the risk of addiction in any individual is unknown, it can occur in patients appropriately prescribed Hydrocodone Bitartrate and Ibuprofen Tablets. Addiction can occur at recommended dosages and if the drug is misused or abused.The risk of opioid-related overdose or overdose-related death is increased with higher opioid doses, and this risk persists over the course of therapy. In post-marketing studies, addiction, abuse, misuse, and fatal and non-fatal opioid overdose were observed in patients with long-term opioid use [ADVERSE REACTIONS]. Assess each patient’s risk for opioid addiction, abuse, or misuse prior to prescribing Hydrocodone Bitartrate and Ibuprofen Tablets, and reassess all patients receiving Hydrocodone Bitartrate and Ibuprofen Tablets for the development of these behaviors and conditions. Risks are increased in patients with a per…
Contraindications
CONTRAINDICATIONS Hydrocodone Bitartrate and Ibuprofen Tablets are contraindicated in patients with: Significant respiratory depression (see WARNINGS: Life-Threatening Respiratory Depression ). Acute or severe bronchial asthma in an unmonitored setting or in the absence of resuscitative equipment (see WARNINGS: Life-Threatening Respiratory Depression in Patients with Chronic Pulmonary Disease or in Elderly, Cachectic, or Debilitated Patients ). Known or suspected gastrointestinal obstruction, including paralytic ileus (see WARNINGS: Risks of Use in Patients with Gastrointestinal Conditions ). Known hypersensitivity (e.g., anaphylactic reactions, serious skin reactions) to hydrocodone, ibuprofen, or any components of the drug product (see WARNINGS: Anaphylactic Reactions, Serious Skin Reactions ). Patients known to be hypersensitive to other opioids may exhibit cross-sensitivity to hydrocodone. History of asthma, urticaria, or other allergic-type reactions after taking aspirin or other NSAIDs. Severe, sometimes fatal, anaphylactic reactions to NSAIDs have been reported in such patients (see WARNINGS: Anaphylactic Reactions, Exacerbation of Asthma Related to Aspirin Sensitivity ). In…
Drug Interactions
Drug Interactions Inhibitors of CYP3A4 and CYP2D6 The concomitant use of hydrocodone bitartrate and ibuprofen tablets and CYP3A4 inhibitors, such as macrolide antibiotics (e.g., erythromycin), azole-antifungal agents (e.g. ketoconazole), protease inhibitors (e.g., ritonavir), can increase the plasma concentration of hydrocodone, resulting in increased or prolonged opioid effects. These effects could be more pronounced with concomitant use of hydrocodone bitartrate and ibuprofen tablets and CYP2D6 and CYP3A4 inhibitors, particularly when an inhibitor is added after a stable dose of hydrocodone bitartrate and ibuprofen tablets are achieved (see WARNINGS: Risks of Concomitant Use or Discontinuation of Cytochrome P450 3A4 Inhibitors and Inducers ). After stopping a CYP3A4 inhibitor, as the effects of the inhibitor decline, the hydrocodone plasma concentration will decrease (see CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY: Pharmacokinetics ), resulting in decreased opioid efficacy or a withdrawal syndrome in patients who had developed physical dependence to Hydrocodone Bitartrate and Ibuprofen Tablets. If concomitant use is necessary, consider dosage reduction of hydrocodone bitartrate and ibuprofen tablets …
