Patches appearing on the tongue and the lining of the mouth. These sore patches can scrape off easily making it hard to chew food and swallow. Drugs to treat cancer antineoplastics like Methotrexate and Fluoroplex ; may cause mouth ulcers. Mouth ulcers often occur a week or two after the drug has been taken. They can take up to four weeks to heal once the medication is stopped. During these trying moments you can help yourself by doing daily mouth care, keeping your lips moist, avoiding acidic, spicy or hard- to-chew foods, and drinking lots of soothing liquids.

PATIENTS AND PROTOCOL Patients enrolled in this study met the following criteria: current NSAID user at least 40 years of age, at least a 3-month history of OA of the knee or hip confirmed by x-ray and by clinical signs and symptoms, and pain on movement in the target joint. Main exclusionary criteria included, but were not limited to, prior intolerance of any NSAID, analgesic, or antipyretic; presence of aspirin hypersensitivity or any disease that, in the opinion of the investigator, could interfere with the evaluation of efficacy or safety; abnormal renal, hematologic, or hepatic function; history of a bleeding disorder or current therapy with an anticoagulant; recent within 2 months ; use of corticosteroids; treatment with intra-articular injections of hyaluronic acid in the prior 3 months; long-term use of GI medications H2blockers, misoprostol, proton pump inhibitors ; that could not be discontinued prior to participation; and history of narcotic and or alcohol abuse. Patients with a history of upper GI perforations, ulcers, or peptic ulcer bleeding were not excluded unless the event had occurred within the 6 months prior to enrollment. Subsequent to enrollment, an NSAID-free period of at least 3 days was initiated, during which demonstration of a flare was required. A flare was defined as a worsening of disease activity from initial screening that met the following criteria: at least 1 grade deterioration in the investigator's global assessment of disease activity; an increase of 10 mm greater on a 100-mm visual analog scale VAS ; for the patient's global assessment of disease activity; and an increase greater than 35 mm on 100-mm VAS ; in the patient's overall assessment of pain. Upon flare, the patient was scheduled for baseline evaluation and initiation of treatment. Once treatment was initiated, efficacy and safety evaluations were performed at 2, 4, 8, and 12 weeks or at early termination. Diclofenac was chosen as an active comparator to establish sensitivity of the efficacy end points based on its and estrace.

Please read this leaflet carefully before you use Gen-Meloxicam tablets. It provides a summary of information that you should know about meloxicam, the active ingredient in Gen-Meloxicam tablets and how it should be used. If after reading this information you still have questions, please be sure to talk to your doctor or pharmacist. What is Gen-Meloxicam? Gen-Meloxicam meloxicam ; belongs to a class of drugs known as nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs NSAIDs ; and is used to treat the symptoms of certain types of arthritis. It helps to relieve joint swelling, redness and pain of arthritis. Your body produces chemicals called prostaglandins. Some of these prostaglandins help line the stomach with a protective layer. In arthritis, other prostaglandins cause pain and swelling. At the dose prescribed by your doctor, Gen-Meloxicam reduces the type that causes pain and swelling. NSAIDS do not cure arthritis, but they promote suppression of the inflammation and the tissue damaging effects resulting from this inflammation. Gen-Meloxicam will help you only as long as you continue to take it. You should take Gen-Meloxicam only as directed by your doctor. Do not take more of it, do not take it more often and do not take it for a longer period of time than your doctor ordered. Taking too much of any of these medicines may increase the chance of unwanted effects, especially if you are an elderly patient. Be sure to take Gen-Meloxicam regularly as prescribed. In some types of arthritis, up to two weeks may pass before you feel the full effects of this medicine. During treatment, your doctor may decide to adjust the dosage according to your response to the medication. Your doctor will check your health during regular visits to assess your progress and to ensure that this medicine is not causing unwanted effects. Do not take ASA acetylsalicylic acid ; , ASA-containing compounds or other drugs used to relieve symptoms of arthritis while taking GenMeloxicam unless directed to do so your physician. Before Taking this Medication Tell Your Doctor and Pharmacists If You: or a family member are allergic to or have had a reaction to GenMeloxicam or other antiinflammatory drugs such as acetylsalicylic acid ASA ; , diclofenac, diflunisal, fenoprofen, flurbiprofen, ibuprofen, indomethacin, ketoprofen, mefenamic acid, piroxicam, tiaprofenic acid, tolmetin, nabumetone or tenoxicam ; manifesting itself by increased sinusitis, hives, the initiating or worsening of asthma or anaphylaxis sudden collapse or a family member has had asthma, nasal polyps, chronic sinusitis or chronic urticaria hives have a history of stomach upset, ulcers, liver or kidney diseases; have blood or urine abnormalities; have high blood pressure; have diabetes; have heart problems; are on any special diet, such as a low-sodium or low-sugar diet; are pregnant or intend to become pregnant while taking this medication; are breast feeding or intend to breast feed while taking this medication; are taking any other medication either prescription or nonprescription ; such as other NSAIDs, high blood pressure medication, blood thinners, corticosteroids, methotrexate, cyclosporin, lithium, phenytoin; have any other medical problem s ; such as alcohol abuse, bleeding problems, etc. While Taking this Medication: tell any other doctor, dentist or pharmacist that you consult or see, that your are taking this medication; some NSAIDs may cause drowsiness or fatigue in some people taking them. Do not drive or participate in activities that require alertness if you are drowsy, dizzy or lightheaded after taking this medication; check with your doctor if you are not getting any relief of your arthritis or if any problems develop; report any untoward reactions to your doctor. This is very important as it will aid in the early detection and prevention of potential complications.

Up until now there has been no provision for blind or visually impaired patients to access Patient Information Leaflets PILs ; on medicines in suitable formats. A new patient information service launched on the 8th November 2006 will enable people to receive PILs in a wider variety of formats. The service, known as X-PIL, was developed by The Royal National Institute of the Blind RNIB ; and Datapharm Communications Ltd in response to new regulatory requirements which state that the PIL for new products must be made available in formats suitable for the blind and visually impaired. Through the RNIB Medicines Information Line on 0800 198 5000, healthcare professionals HCPs ; and patients can receive PILs in large print, in Braille, or on audio CD. A PIL can also be listened to through the Medicines Information Line. Alternatively, the online service xpil.medicines ; provides electronic format PILs in large text 18-22 point ; and in a version that can be used by a screen reader. By December 2006 it will be possible to listen to PILs on the website in audio MP3 format. More products are progressively being added so that all the products on the eMC website will be available in the new formats by the end of March 07.

An 83 year old man had an acute attack of gout. He treated himself with colchicine drops 2 mg in two days ; and received diclofenac because of continuous pain. Concurrently he had muscle weakness in his limbs. Four days later he became immobile and was transferred to hospital with flaccid tetraparesis British Medical Research Council grade II-III ; . He had no signs of infection, hepatic or renal impairments, or stroke. Laboratory values were normal except a brief increase of creatine kinase to 1288.2 IU l. Repeated nerve conduction studies did not show any relevant pathology, including normal terminal latencies and F wave latencies. Electromyography subsequently showed signs of lower motor neurone lesion. Muscle biopsy showed one isolated vacuole that could not be related to a colchicine induced myoneuropathy. Analysis of cerebrospinal fluid was unremarkable and indicated only a slight disturbance in the blood-cerebrospinal fluid barrier protein 548 mg l ; . An atypical Guillain-Barr syndrome was clinically diagnosed. He was also taking 120 mg day of slow release verapamil continuously for tachyarrhythmia, a sick sinus syndrome of the heart basically controlled by a pace maker, furosemide, acetylsalicylic acid, ambroxol, and theophylline. A tetraparesis due to neuromyopathy induced by colchicines was diagnosed because of concentration-time curves in serum and cerebrospinal fluid. The diagnosis was revised to neuromyopathy induced by colchicine when excessive colchicine concentrations in serum as well as in cerebrospinal fluid were determined retrospectively using a radioimmunoassay.1 Although the serum concentration decreased slightly it remained constant in the cerebrospinal fluid in the following days figure ; . The calculated half life in serum was increased eightfold compared with a dose and age matched reference population 272 hours v 34 hours ; .1 The colchicine cerebrospinal fluid to serum ratio of about 50% was much higher than normal less than 10% ; . At the follow-up on day 40, he had recovered incompletely but colchicine was not detectable in serum. Typical features of colchicine induced myoneuropathy such as high cumulative doses, long term treatment, or renal insufficiency2 were not found in our case. Verapamil is an inhibitor of CYP3A and a potent inhibitor with norverapamil threefold stronger ; of the P-glycoprotein transporter acting as a blood-brain barrier drug efflux pump.3 An increase of colchicine uptake was seen in a rat's brain as well as in a rat's plasma by verapamil up to 4.5-fold and 1.65-fold, respectively. These results indicate a dominant responsibility of the P-glycoprotein inhibition for the colchicine accumulation in cerebrospinal fluid.4 Colchicine is a substrate for CYP3A4 in the. 16.

Use of celecoxib versus ibuprofen or diclofenac was associated with odds of MI of 0.77 0.40 -1.48 ; . However, it is noted that only about 50% of eligible participants completed telephone interviews. In addition, the possibility of recall bias and uncontrolled confounding makes it difficult to come to definitive conclusions. According to an accompanying editorial, because two separate drugs in the class of COX-2 inhibitors have now been associated with increased cardiovascular morbidity, physicians should avoid COX-2 inhibitors as a first-line agent in patients with cardiovascular risk factors and average risk for GI toxicity. It notes that serious and occasionally life-threatening GI toxicity does occur with both non-selective NSAIDs and COX-2 inhibitors. The editorial suggests that in light of the current uncertainty about whether cardiotoxicity is a class effect of COX-2 inhibitors, consideration should be given to use of either a non-selective NSAID with a concomitant gastroprotective agent or celecoxib, for patients at high risk for GI toxicity.
