Blackbox WarningTOP

Oral route (Tablet)

Oxycodone hydrochloride/ibuprofen has the potential for addiction, abuse, and misuse, which can lead to overdose and death. Assess each patient's risk before prescribing, and monitor for development of these behaviors or conditions. Serious, life-threatening, or fatal respiratory depression may occur. Monitor closely, especially upon initiation or following a dose increase. Accidental ingestion of oxycodone hydrochloride/ibuprofen, especially in children, can result in fatal overdose of oxycodone hydrochloride and ibuprofen. Prolonged use of oxycodone hydrochloride/ibuprofen during pregnancy can result in neonatal opioid withdrawal syndrome, which may be life-threatening if not recognized and treated. If opioid use is required for a prolonged period in a pregnant woman, advise the patient of the risk of neonatal opioid withdrawal syndrome and ensure that appropriate treatment will be available. Concomitant use of cytochrome P450 3A4 inhibitors or discontinuation of concomitantly used cytochrome P450 3A4 inducers may affect the plasma levels of oxycodone and lead to increased adverse reactions and fatal respiratory depression. Monitor patients carefully when oxycodone hydrochloride/ibuprofen and cytochrome P450 3A4 inhibitors and inducers are concurrently used. Concomitant use of benzodiazepines and opioids may result in profound sedation, respiratory depression, coma, and death. Reserve concomitant prescribing for patients with inadequate alternative treatment options. Limit dosages and durations to the minimum required and follow patients for signs and symptoms of respiratory depression and sedation. NSAIDs may cause an increased risk of serious cardiovascular thrombotic events, myocardial infarction, and stroke, which can be fatal. This risk may be increased in patients with cardiovascular disease or risk factors for cardiovascular disease. Oxycodone hydrochloride/ibuprofen is contraindicated for use in the setting of coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery. NSAIDs can also increase the risk of serious gastrointestinal (GI) adverse events (eg, bleeding, ulceration, and perforation of the stomach or intestines) especially in the elderly and patients with a prior history of ulcer disease and/or GI bleeding, which can be fatal .

OverviewTOP

Ibuprofen and oxycodone combination is used to relieve acute, moderate to severe pain.

Ibuprofen is a nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drug (NSAID) that is used to relieve inflammation, swelling, and pain. Oxycodone is a narcotic analgesic that acts in the central nervous system to relieve pain. If oxycodone is used for a long time, it may become habit-forming (causing mental or physical dependence). Physical dependence may lead to withdrawal side effects when you stop taking the medicine. Since ibuprofen and oxycodone combination is only used for short-term (7 days or less) relief of pain, physical dependence probably will not occur.

This medicine is available only with your doctor's prescription.

People who use this medicine for a long time might also have a higher risk. Some signs of serious heart problems are chest pain, tightness in the chest, fast or irregular heartbeat, or unusual flushing or warmth of the skin. Check with your doctor right away if you notice any of these warning signs.

Ibuprofen and oxycodone combination will add to the effects of alcohol and other central nervous system (CNS) depressants (medicines that make you drowsy or less alert). Some examples of CNS depressants are antihistamines or medicines for hay fever, allergies, or colds, sedatives, tranquilizers, sleeping medicine, or other prescription pain medicine or narcotics, medicine for seizures or barbiturates, muscle relaxants, or anesthetics, including some dental anesthetics.
