A centrally acting central muscle relaxant with sedative properties. It is claimed to inhibit muscle spasm by exerting an effect primarily at the level of the spinal cord and subcortical areas of the brain. (From Martindale, The Extra Pharmacopoea, 30th ed, p1202)
Each 100-g gel contains Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit) [2-(3-benzoyl-phenyl)-propionic acid] 2.5 g and the following excipients: Carboxypolymethylene 2 g; ethyl alcohol 40 mL; esters of p-hydroxybenzoic acid 0.1 g; neroli oil 0.05 mL; lavender oil 0.1 mL; triethanolamine 1.35 g; distilled water qs.
Pyridoxine (Reumophan Vit) is the 4-methanol form of Pyridoxine (Reumophan Vit) and is converted to pyridoxal 5-phosphate in the body. Pyridoxal 5-phosphate is a coenzyme for synthesis of amino acids, neurotransmitters (serotonin, norepinephrine), sphingolipids, aminolevulinic acid. Although Pyridoxine (Reumophan Vit) and Pyridoxine (Reumophan Vit) are still frequently used as synonyms, especially by medical researchers, this practice is erroneous and sometimes misleading.

Thiamine (Reumophan Vit) or thiamin, also known as Thiamine (Reumophan Vit), is a colorless compound with the chemical formula C12H17N4OS. It is soluble in water and insoluble in alcohol. Thiamine (Reumophan Vit) decomposes if heated. Thiamine (Reumophan Vit) was first discovered by Umetaro Suzuki in Japan when researching how rice bran cured patients of Beriberi. Thiamine (Reumophan Vit) plays a key role in intracellular glucose metabolism and it is thought that Thiamine (Reumophan Vit) inhibits the effect of glucose and insulin on arterial smooth muscle cell proliferation. Thiamine (Reumophan Vit) plays an important role in helping the body convert carbohydrates and fat into energy. It is essential for normal growth and development and helps to maintain proper functioning of the heart and the nervous and digestive systems. Thiamine (Reumophan Vit) cannot be stored in the body; however, once absorbed, the vitamin is concentrated in muscle tissue.
Chlorzoxazone (Reumophan Vit) is indicated as an adjunct to rest, physical therapy, and other measures for the relief of discomfort associated with acute, painful musculoskeletal conditions. The mode of action of this drug has not been clearly identified, but may be related to its sedative properties. Chlorzoxazone (Reumophan Vit) does not directly relax tense skeletal muscles in man.
An indication is a term used for the list of condition or symptom or illness for which the medicine is prescribed or used by the patient. For example, acetaminophen or paracetamol is used for fever by the patient, or the doctor prescribes it for a headache or body pains. Now fever, headache and body pains are the indications of paracetamol. A patient should be aware of the indications of medications used for common conditions because they can be taken over the counter in the pharmacy meaning without prescription by the Physician.Carefully consider the potential benefits and risks of Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit) (Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit)) and Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit) and other treatment options before deciding to use Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit) (Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit)) and Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit).

Inadequate dietary intake.
Drug-induced deficiency, as from isoniazid (INH) or oral contraceptives.
Inborn errors of metabolism, e.g., Pyridoxine (Reumophan Vit) dependent convulsions or Pyridoxine (Reumophan Vit) responsive anemia.
The parenteral route is indicated when oral administration is not feasible as in anorexia, nausea and vomiting, and preoperative and postoperative conditions. It is also indicated when gastrointestinal absorption is impaired.

Thiamine (Reumophan Vit) Hydrochloride Injection should be used where rapid restoration of Thiamine (Reumophan Vit) is necessary, as in Wernicke’s encephalopathy, infantile beriberi with acute collapse, cardiovascular disease due to Thiamine (Reumophan Vit) deficiency, or neuritis of pregnancy if vomiting is severe. It is also indicated when giving IV dextrose to individuals with marginal Thiamine (Reumophan Vit) status to avoid precipitation of heart failure.
Thiamine (Reumophan Vit) Hydrochloride Injection is also indicated in patients with established Thiamine (Reumophan Vit) deficiency who cannot take Thiamine (Reumophan Vit) orally due to coexisting severe anorexia, nausea, vomiting, or malabsorption. Thiamine (Reumophan Vit) Hydrochloride Injection is not usually indicated for conditions of decreased oral intake or decreased gastrointestinal absorption, because multiple vitamins should usually be given.
Chlorzoxazone (Reumophan Vit) is used to relax certain muscles in your body and relieve the discomfort caused by acute (short-term), painful muscle or bone conditions. However, Chlorzoxazone (Reumophan Vit) does not take the place of rest, exercise, physical therapy, or other treatments that your doctor may recommend for your medical condition.

Carefully consider the potential benefits and risks of Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit) (Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit)) and Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit) and other treatment options before deciding to use Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit) (Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit)) and Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit). Use the lowest effective dose for the shortest duration consistent with individual patient treatment goals.
After observing the response to initial therapy with Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit) (Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit)) and Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit), the dose and frequency should be adjusted to suit an individual patients needs.
Concomitant use of Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit) (Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit)) and Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit) is not recommended.
If minor side effects appear, they may disappear at a lower dose which may still have an adequate therapeutic effect. If well tolerated but not optimally effective, the dosage may be increased. Individual patients may show a better response to 300 mg of Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit) (Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit)) daily as compared to 200 mg, although in well-controlled clinical trials patients on 300 mg did not show greater mean effectiveness. They did, however, show an increased frequency of upper- and lower-GI distress and headaches. It is of interest that women also had an increased frequency of these adverse effects compared to men. When treating patients with 300 mg/day, the physician should observe sufficient increased clinical benefit to offset potential increased risk.
In patients with mildly impaired renal function, the maximum recommended total daily dose of Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit) (Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit)) or Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit) is 150 mg. In patients with a more severe renal impairment (GFR less than 25 mL/min/1.73 m or end-stage renal impairment), the maximum total daily dose of Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit) (Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit)) or Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit) should not exceed 100 mg.
In elderly patients, renal function may be reduced with apparently normal serum creatinine and/or BUN levels. Therefore, it is recommended that the initial dosage of Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit) (Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit)) or Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit) should be reduced for patients over 75 years of age.
It is recommended that for patients with impaired liver function and serum albumin concentration less than 3.5 g/dL, the maximum initial total daily dose of Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit) (Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit)) or Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit) should be 100 mg. All patients with metabolic impairment, particularly those with both hypoalbuminemia and reduced renal function, may have increased levels of free (biologically active) Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit) and should be closely monitored. The dosage may be increased to the range recommended for the general population, if necessary, only after good individual tolerance has been ascertained.
Because hypoalbuminemia and reduced renal function both increase the fraction of free drug (biologically active form), patients who have both conditions may be at greater risk of adverse effects. Therefore, it is recommended that such patients also be started on lower doses of Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit) (Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit)) or Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit) and closely monitored.
Rheumatoid Arthritis and Osteoarthritis
The recommended starting dose of Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit) in otherwise healthy patients is for Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit) (Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit)) 75 mg three times or 50 mg four times a day, or for Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit) 200 mg administered once a day. Smaller doses of Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit) (Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit)) or Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit) should be utilized initially in small individuals or in debilitated or elderly patients. The recommended maximum daily dose of Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit) is 300 mg/day for Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit) (Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit)) or 200 mg/day for Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit).
Dosages higher than 300 mg/day of Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit) (Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit)) or 200 mg/day of Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit) are not recommended because they have not been studied. Concomitant use of Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit) (Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit)) and Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit) is not recommended. Relatively smaller people may need smaller doses.
As with other nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, the predominant adverse effects of Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit) are gastrointestinal. To attempt to minimize these effects, physicians may wish to prescribe that Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit) (Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit)) or Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit) be taken with antacids, food, or milk. Although food delays the absorption of both formulations, in most of the clinical trials Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit) was taken with food or milk.
Physicians may want to make specific recommendations to patients about when they should take Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit) (Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit)) or Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit) in relation to food and/or what patients should do if they experience minor GI symptoms associated with either formulation.
Management of Pain and Dysmenorrhea
The usual dose of Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit) (Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit)) recommended for mild-to-moderate pain and dysmenorrhea is 25 to 50 mg every 6 to 8 hours as necessary. A smaller dose should be utilized initially in small individuals, in debilitated or elderly patients, or in patients with renal or liver disease. A larger dose may be tried if the patients response to a previous dose was less than satisfactory, but doses above 75 mg have not been shown to give added analgesia. Daily doses above 300 mg are not recommended because they have not been adequately studied. Because of its typical nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drug-side-effect profile, including as its principal adverse effect GI side effects, higher doses of Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit) (Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit)) should be used with caution and patients receiving them observed carefully.
Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit) is not recommended for use in treating acute pain because of its extended-release characteristics.

What other drugs will affect Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit)?
The following drug interactions were studied with Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit) doses of 200 mg/day. The possibility of increased interaction should be kept in mind when Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit) doses greater than 50 mg as a single dose or 200 mg of Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit) per day are used concomitantly with highly bound drugs.
1. Antacids: Concomitant administration of magnesium hydroxide and aluminum hydroxide does not interfere with the rate or extent of the absorption of Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit) administered as Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit).
2. Aspirin: Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit) does not alter aspirin absorption; however, in a study of 12 normal subjects, concurrent administration of aspirin decreased Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit) protein binding and increased Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit) plasma clearance from 0.07 L/kg/h without aspirin to 0.11 L/kg/h with aspirin. The clinical significance of these changes has not been adequately studied. Therefore, concurrent use of aspirin and Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit) is not recommended.
3. Diuretic: Hydrochlorothiazide, given concomitantly with Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit), produces a reduction in urinary potassium and chloride excretion compared to hydrochlorothiazide alone. Patients taking diuretics are at a greater risk of developing renal failure secondary to a decrease in renal blood flow caused by prostaglandin inhibition.
4. Digoxin: In a study in 12 patients with congestive heart failure where Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit) and digoxin were concomitantly administered, Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit) did not alter the serum levels of digoxin.
5. Warfarin: In a short-term controlled study in 14 normal volunteers, Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit) did not significantly interfere with the effect of warfarin on prothrombin time. Bleeding from a number of sites may be a complication of warfarin treatment and GI bleeding a complication of Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit) treatment. Because prostaglandina play an important role in hemostasis and Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit) has an effect on platelet function as well, concurent therapy with Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit) and warfarin requires close monitoring of patients on both drugs.
6. Probenecid: Probenecid increases both free and bound Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit) by reducing the plasma clearance of Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit) to about one-third, as well as decreasing its protein binding. Therefore, the combination of Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit) and probenecid is not recommended.
7. Methotrexate: Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit), like other NSAIDs, may cause changes in the elimination of methotrexate leading to elevated serum levels of the drug and increased toxicity.
8. Lithium: Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agents have been reported to increase steadystate plasma lithium levels. It is recommended that plasma lithium levels be monitored when Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit) is coadministered with lithium.
DRUG/LABORATORY TEST INTERACTIONS: EFFECT ON BLOOD COAGULATION
Ketoprofen (Reumophan Vit) decreases platelet adhesion and aggregation. Therefore, it can prolong bleeding time by approximately 3 to 4 minutes from baseline values. There is no significant change in platelet count, prothrombin time, partial thromboplastin time, or thrombin time.

What other drugs will affect Pyridoxine (Reumophan Vit)?
Altretamine: Pyridoxine (Reumophan Vit) may diminish the therapeutic effect of Altretamine. Specifically when altretamine is used in combination with Cisplatin the response duration may be diminished. Management: Consider avoiding concomitant use of Pyridoxine (Reumophan Vit) in a altretamine/cisplatin regimen. Although Pyridoxine (Reumophan Vit) may have beneficial effects on altretamine-associated neurotoxicity, it may reduce the duration of response to altretamine. Consider therapy modification

Levodopa-Containing Products: Pyridoxine (Reumophan Vit) may diminish the therapeutic effect of Levodopa-Containing Products. Management: The concomitant use of Pyridoxine (Reumophan Vit) and levodopa (in the absence of a dopa decarboxylase inhibitor (DDI)) should be avoided. Use of a DDI (eg, carbidopa) with levodopa will essentially eliminate the risk of this interaction. Consider therapy modification
Phenytoin: Pyridoxine (Reumophan Vit) may increase the metabolism of Phenytoin. This is most apparent in high Pyridoxine (Reumophan Vit) doses (e.g., 80 mg to 200 mg daily) Monitor therapy
