Pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics
Pharmacodynamics
Anti-inflammatory non-steroidal drug. It has a pronounced analgesic and anti-inflammatory effect. Lornoxicam has a rather complex mechanism of action, which includes inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis caused by inhibition of cyclooxygenase . Blocking cyclooxygenase leads to suppression of peripheral pain receptors and relief of signs of inflammation.
Lornoxicam also reduces the production of oxygen radicals by leukocytes that have undergone activation. The analgesic effect of the drug is not associated with an opiate-like effect on the nervous system and is not accompanied by respiratory depression or drug dependence.
Does not affect important vital signs: respiratory rate, ECG readings, body temperature, heart rate, blood pressure, spirometry .
Pharmacokinetics of tablets
After oral administration, lornoxicam is quickly and completely absorbed from the intestine. In this case, the highest concentration in the blood occurs after an hour and a half. Eating reduces the maximum concentration by 30% and increases the half-life to 2.3 hours. The bioavailability of lornoxicam reaches 92-100%. Binding to blood proteins is 99% and does not depend on its content.
The active substance is completely transformed in the liver. The enzyme CYP2C9 is involved in the transformation . In plasma, the drug is present predominantly unchanged and, only to a small extent, in the form of a hydroxylated metabolite that does not have pharmacological activity.
The half-life is approximately 4 hours. About a third of the metabolites are excreted in the urine and the remainder in the bile.
In elderly people, as well as in patients with impaired liver and kidney function, no changes in the pharmacokinetics of the drug were detected.
Pharmacokinetics of solution for parenteral administration
When administered intramuscularly, the highest content of lornoxicam in the blood is achieved after 25 minutes. Bioavailability in this case reaches 97%, and the reaction with blood proteins is 99%.
Lornoxicam is found in plasma in unchanged form and also in the form of a hydroxylated metabolite that has no pharmacological activity.
The half-life is approximately 3.5 hours. Completely metabolized. About a third of the metabolites are excreted in the urine and the remainder in the bile.
In elderly people, as well as in patients with impaired liver and kidney function, no changes in the pharmacokinetics of the drug were detected.
How does Xefocam work?
The analgesic effect of Xefocam is higher than that of similar NSAID-based drugs. The active component of the drug blocks the release of pain and inflammatory mediators without having an antipyretic effect. Thanks to this, acute symptoms of diseases of the joints and spine are relieved.
The use of the drug does not cause disturbances in the central nervous system, does not change the level of blood pressure and heart rate. Xefocam does not accumulate in body tissues and does not provoke addiction or drug dependence, despite its strong symptomatic effect.
Unlike the tablet form, Xefocam injections reduce pain within 5–10 minutes. The effect of one dose lasts for 0.5–1 day. In addition, parenteral administration of the drug reduces the risk of irritation of the gastric mucosa.
The transformation of Xefocam occurs in the liver. Part of the active substance remains unmetabolized and is excreted through the kidneys. Residues of NSAIDs leave the body with intestinal contents within 24 hours. In people with reduced liver function, the duration of drug elimination is prolonged.
Indications for use
Indications for use of Xefocam in tablet form:
- short-term therapy of pain syndrome , regardless of origin;
- symptomatic treatment of rheumatic diseases ( nylosing spondylitis, osteoarthritis, articular syndrome in acute gout, rheumatoid arthritis , rheumatic lesions of periarticular soft tissues).
The drug is used in the form of injections for short-term treatment of acute pain of a moderate, mild and moderately severe nature.
For what pathologies is Xefocam indicated?
Injections are prescribed intramuscularly and intravenously to eliminate the inflammatory process and acute pain:
- during attacks of lumbodynia caused by intervertebral hernias, pinched nerve endings of the spine, exacerbations of osteochondrosis, spondyloarthrosis;
- for sciatica;
- with neuralgic attacks;
- for injuries of the vertebrae and joints;
- during the recovery period after surgery;
- for chronic symptoms of rheumatism, osteoarthritis and arthritis of various origins.
Xefocam does not affect the general course of the disease, but significantly improves the physical condition, reducing acute pain and restoring the limited mobility of the musculoskeletal system.
Contraindications

Instructions for use of Xefocam (Method and dosage)
Xefocam tablets, instructions for use
The medicine is taken orally before meals with 100 ml of water.
For moderate to severe pain, the drug is taken in a dose of 8-16 mg per day, divided into 2-3 doses. The maximum daily dose is 16 mg.
For rheumatic diseases of an inflammatory-degenerative nature, 12 mg is recommended as the initial dose. The usual daily dose is 8-16 mg.
The exact dose selection is carried out by the doctor based on the patient’s condition, and the duration of treatment depends on the clinic and the course of the disease.
For damage to the digestive organs, for persons with impaired kidney or liver function, for elderly patients or after major operations, the maximum daily dose is set at 12 mg of the drug per day, divided into 3 doses.
To reduce the likelihood of adverse events, the minimum effective dose should be prescribed for the shortest course.
Xefocam injections, instructions for use
Injections are used only parenterally.
When treating pain after surgery, Xefocam injections are given intravenously or intramuscularly, when treating acute lumbago or ischalgia - only intramuscularly.
The initial injection dose may be 8 or 16 mg. If the analgesic effect is weak after administration of 8 mg of the drug, it is allowed to additionally administer another identical dose.
Injections of medication used as maintenance therapy are prescribed at a dose of 8 mg twice a day. The maximum daily dosage is 16 mg.
Injections should be administered at the minimum effective dose in the shortest possible course.
A solution for parenteral administration is prepared before use by dissolving the contents of the bottle with 2 ml of water for injection. The needle is then replaced. Intramuscular injections are made only with a long needle. The drug solution prepared in the described manner is administered intramuscularly or intravenously. The duration of the injection with the intravenous method should be more than 15 seconds, with the intramuscular method - more than 5 seconds.
Overdose
In case of an overdose of the drug, the following symptoms are possible: dizziness, nausea and vomiting, ataxia , visual disturbances , convulsions, coma . Changes in the liver and kidneys, as well as blood clotting disorders, are possible.
Treatment of overdose: Stop administering or taking the medication. Lornoxicam is quickly evacuated from the body. Dialysis is ineffective. A selective antidote is not known. In case of poisoning with tablets, emergency measures must be taken, including taking enterosorbents and gastric lavage. Ranitidine or prostaglandin analogs are allowed to be used for the treatment of digestive disorders .
Interaction
When used together with Cimetidine, of lornoxicam increases .
When used simultaneously with anticoagulants or platelet aggregation blockers, it is possible that the duration of bleeding may increase and the likelihood of bleeding may increase.
Combined use with Phenprocoumon reduces its therapeutic effectiveness.
When taking anti-inflammatory non-steroidal drugs along with Heparin during spinal or epidural anesthesia, of spinal and epidural hematomas increases .
When used together with ACE blockers and beta-blockers, their hypotensive effect is reduced.
The drug weakens the hypotensive and diuretic effect of diuretics , and also reduces the clearance of Digoxin .
When used together with other anti-inflammatory non-steroidal drugs or glucocorticosteroids , the risk of bleeding from the digestive organs increases.
When used together with quinoline antibiotics, of seizure syndrome increases
The drug increases the level of Methotrexate in the blood when used together.
When used simultaneously with selective serotonin uptake blockers, the risk of bleeding from the digestive organs increases.
Xefocam can cause an increase in the concentration of lithium in the blood, increasing the side effects of the latter when taken together.
Xefocam stimulates the nephrotoxic effects of Cyclosporine and the hypoglycemic effect of sulfonylurea drugs .
When taken together with potassium supplements, corticotropin , alcohol, the risk of undesirable effects on the digestive system increases.
When used simultaneously with Cefotetan, Cefoperazone, Cefamandole, valproic acid, the likelihood of bleeding increases.
When taken together with Tacrolimus nephrotoxicity increases .
Compatibility of the drug with alcohol and other medications
During the period of use of the medication, alcohol should be avoided, since ethanol greatly enhances its toxic effect. Caution is necessary when using Xefocam simultaneously with Cimetidine, Heparin, Methotrexate, Corticotropin, diuretics, antihypertensive drugs from the group of beta blockers and ACE inhibitors. As a result of their combination, a mutual increase in toxicity is likely.
Xefocam is not recommended to be combined with other non-steroidal analgesics, since all of them are characterized by an anticoagulant effect - a decrease in blood clotting.
During the treatment period, you should also refrain from driving a car or operating complex equipment. Xefocam affects the speed of motor skills and mental reactions, which increases the risk of accidents.
special instructions
The likelihood of an ulcerogenic effect of the drug can be reduced by simultaneous use of proton pump inhibitors and artificial prostaglandin analogues . If bleeding from the digestive organs occurs, the medication must be stopped immediately and emergency measures must be taken. It is especially necessary to carefully monitor patients with pathologies of the gastrointestinal tract who are taking the drug for the first time.
Like any other oxicams , the described drug inhibits platelet aggregation, which causes an increase in the duration of bleeding. When using the drug, you need to carefully monitor the condition of patients who require normal physiological functioning of the coagulation system (including those who are planning to undergo surgery), have blood clotting disorders, or are taking medications that suppress coagulation , in order to promptly identify signs of bleeding .
If signs of liver damage are detected (yellowness of the skin, itching, vomiting, nausea, dark urine, abdominal pain, increased levels of liver transaminases ), you should immediately stop using the medication and consult a doctor.
It is prohibited to use the medicine simultaneously with other anti-inflammatory non-steroidal drugs .
Xefocam is able to change the properties of platelets, but it does not replace the preventive effect of Aspirin for cardiovascular disorders.
For patients with impaired renal function caused by severe blood loss or dehydration, the drug, as an inhibitor of prostaglandin biosynthesis, is allowed to be prescribed only after relief of hypovolemia and the resulting risk of decreased renal perfusion.
The described medicine can cause an increase in urea and creatinine in the blood, as well as sodium and water retention, arterial hypertension , peripheral edema and some other initial symptoms of nephropathy . Long-term therapy of such patients with Xefocam can cause glomerulonephritis , nephrotic syndrome and even acute kidney failure.
In elderly people, as well as those suffering from arterial hypertension or obesity , blood pressure should be monitored.
It is especially important to monitor renal function in elderly patients, as well as in persons concomitantly taking diuretics or drugs that potentially cause damage to kidney tissue.
With long-term use of the drug, it is necessary to regularly monitor hematological parameters, as well as kidney and liver parameters.
Persons receiving the drug are strongly advised to refrain from driving and drinking alcohol.

Pharmacodynamics
It has a pronounced analgesic and anti-inflammatory effect. Lornoxicam has a complex mechanism of action, which is based on the suppression of PG synthesis due to inhibition of COX activity. In addition, lornoxicam inhibits the release of oxygen free radicals from activated leukocytes. The drug does not have an opiate-like effect on the central nervous system and, unlike narcotic analgesics, does not depress respiration and does not cause drug dependence.
Pharmacokinetics
Lornoxicam is quickly and almost completely absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract after oral administration. In this case, Cmax in plasma is achieved after 1-2 hours, with intramuscular administration - after approximately 0.4 hours. The absolute bioavailability of lornoxicam is 90-100% after oral administration and 97% after intramuscular administration.
Lornoxicam is present in plasma mainly unchanged and, to a lesser extent, in the form of a hydroxylated metabolite, which has no pharmacological activity. The binding of lornoxicam to plasma proteins (mainly the albumin fraction) is 99% and does not depend on its concentration. T1/2, on average, is 4 hours (tablets) and 3-4 hours (lyophilisate) and does not depend on the concentration of the drug.
Completely metabolized. Approximately 1/3 of the metabolites are excreted from the body by the kidneys and 2/3 by the liver. In elderly people, as well as in patients with renal or hepatic insufficiency, no significant changes in the pharmacokinetics of lornoxicam were found.
Indications for use Xefocam 8 mg 10 pcs. film-coated tablets
Short-term treatment of pain of various origins. Symptomatic treatment of rheumatic diseases (rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, articular syndrome with exacerbation of gout, rheumatic soft tissue damage).

Application of Xefocam 8 mg 10 pcs. film-coated tablets during pregnancy and breastfeeding
Contraindicated for children under 14 years of age, during pregnancy and breastfeeding.
special instructions
The risk of ulcerogenic effects of the drug can be reduced by the simultaneous administration of proton pump inhibitors and synthetic prostaglandin analogues. If bleeding occurs in the gastrointestinal tract, the drug should be stopped immediately and appropriate emergency measures taken. It is especially necessary to carefully monitor the condition of those patients with gastrointestinal pathology who are receiving a course of treatment with XEFOCAM for the first time.
Like other oxicams, XEFOCAM inhibits platelet aggregation and may therefore increase bleeding time. When using this drug, patients who require completely normal coagulation function (for example, patients undergoing surgery), who have coagulation disorders, or who are receiving medications that inhibit coagulation (including low-dose heparin) should be closely monitored when using this drug. , in order to promptly detect signs of bleeding.
If signs of liver damage appear (itching, yellowing of the skin, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, dark urine, increased levels of liver transaminases), you should stop taking the drug and consult your doctor.
The drug should not be used simultaneously with other NSAIDs.
The drug can change the properties of platelets, but does not replace the preventive effect of acetylsalicylic acid in cardiovascular diseases.
In patients with impaired renal function caused by large blood loss or severe dehydration, XEFOCAM, as an inhibitor of prostaglandin synthesis, can be prescribed only after hypovolemia and the associated risk of decreased renal perfusion have been eliminated. Like other NSAIDs, XEFOCAM can cause an increase in blood urea and creatinine concentrations, as well as water and sodium retention, peripheral edema, hypertension and other early signs of nephropathy. Long-term treatment of such patients with XEFOCAM can lead to the following consequences: glomerulonephritis, papillary necrosis and nephrotic syndrome with transition to acute renal failure. Patients with a marked decrease in renal function should not be prescribed XEFOCAM. In elderly patients, as well as in patients suffering from arterial hypertension and/or obesity, it is necessary to control blood pressure levels.
It is especially important to monitor renal function in elderly patients, as well as in patients:
- simultaneously receiving diuretics;
- concurrently receiving medications that may cause kidney damage.
With long-term use of the drug XEFOCAM, it is necessary to periodically monitor hematological parameters, as well as renal and liver function.
Impact on the ability to drive vehicles and operate machinery
Patients using the drug must refrain from activities that require increased attention, rapid mental and motor reactions, and alcohol consumption.
Overdose
Symptoms: the side effects of XEFOCAM described above may increase. Treatment: symptomatic.
Taking activated carbon immediately after taking XEFOCAM may help reduce the absorption of this drug. Antiulcer drugs can be used to prevent damage to the mucous membrane.
Dialysis is ineffective.
