ZORVOLEX is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) indicated for management of mild to moderate acute pain and osteoarthritis (OA) pain.
All prescription Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs), like ZORVOLEX, may increase the chances of a heart attack or stroke that can lead to death. These chances increase with higher doses of NSAID medicines; and, generally, with longer periods of use of NSAID medicines; or in people who have heart disease.
ZORVOLEX should not be used right before or after a certain heart surgery called a “coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG).”
NSAID medicines can cause ulcers and bleeding in the stomach and intestines at any time during treatment. Ulcers and bleeding can happen without warning symptoms and may cause death. The chance of a person having bleeding or getting an ulcer increases with higher doses or prolonged use of NSAID medicines, taking other medicines called “corticosteroids” and “anticoagulants,” smoking, drinking alcohol, older age, or having poor health.
Tell your healthcare provider about all of your medical conditions, if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, and about all of the medicines you are taking because NSAIDs and some other medicines can interact with each other and cause serious side effects.
ZORVOLEX should not be taken in late pregnancy.
Do not take ZORVOLEX if you had an asthma attack, hives, or other allergic reaction with aspirin, or any other NSAID medicine.
Life threatening allergic reactions can occur with ZORVOLEX. Get help right away if you’ve had swelling of the face or throat or trouble breathing.
Other serious side effects of NSAIDs include: high blood pressure, heart failure causing swelling (fluid retention), kidney problems including kidney failure, low red blood cells, life-threatening skin reactions, and liver problems including liver failure. The most common side effects reported in studies using ZORVOLEX were swelling, nausea, headache, dizziness, vomiting, constipation, itching, diarrhea, gas, leg or foot pain, abdominal pain, stuffy or runny nose, abnormal blood tests, high blood pressure, and heartburn.
ZORVOLEX should be used exactly as prescribed, at the lowest dose possible, and for the shortest time needed for your treatment.
These are not all the side effects reported with ZORVOLEX. Talk to your healthcare provider or pharmacist for more information about NSAID medicines. Call your doctor for medical advice about side effects. You may report side effects to FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088.
