Tamipul

A combined drug, the effect of which is due to the components included in its composition. The drug has analgesic (pain-relieving), anti-inflammatory, antipyretic effects. Caffeine enhances the analgesic effect of ibuprofen and paracetamol. Under the influence of caffeine, diuresis is slightly increased, which causes a moderate anti-edema effect.

Pain syndrome of varying intensity:

The interval between doses is at least 4 hours.

Do not exceed the recommended dose.

The lowest effective dose should be used for the shortest time necessary to relieve symptoms.

Contraindications

Hypersensitivity to paracetamol, ibuprofen, caffeine or any other component of the drug, current or history of gastric ulcer (two or more clear episodes of exacerbation of ulcer or bleeding); history of upper gastrointestinal bleeding or perforation associated with previous treatment with nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs; acute pancreatitis, severe liver and/or kidney dysfunction, congenital hyperbilirubinemia, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency, alcoholism, blood diseases, severe anemia, leukopenia, thrombosis, thrombophlebitis, states of increased excitement; sleep disorders; severe arterial hypertension; organic diseases of the cardiovascular system; angle-closure glaucoma; epilepsy, hyperthyroidism, decompensated heart failure, cardiac conduction disorders, severe atherosclerosis, tendency to vasospasm, coronary heart disease, prostatic hypertrophy, severe forms of diabetes mellitus, allergic reaction (e.g., bronchial asthma, rhinitis, Quincke's edema) after using acetylsalicylic acid or other nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, use of the drug simultaneously with nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, elderly patient.

Do not use together with monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibitors, cyclooxygenase-2 and within 2 weeks after stopping their use; contraindicated in patients taking tricyclic antidepressants or beta-blockers. Gilbert's syndrome. Patient age up to 12 years. Pregnancy or breastfeeding.

Interaction with other medicinal products and other types of interactions

With simultaneous use of paracetamol with metoclopramide and domperidone, the absorption of paracetamol may be increased, with cholesterolamine - a decrease in absorption.

In the case of long-term continuous use of paracetamol, the anticoagulant effect of warfarin and other coumarins may be enhanced, and the risk of bleeding may increase.

Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs may enhance the effect of anticoagulants, such as warfarin, and weaken the effect of drugs that lower blood pressure or diuretics.

Simultaneous use of other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs may lead to increased side effects.

Corticosteroids may increase the risk of side effects from the gastrointestinal tract.

Taking the drug may lead to an increase in the concentration of lithium in the blood serum.

Simultaneous use with methotrexate may lead to poisoning.

Barbiturates reduce the antipyretic effect of paracetamol.

Anticonvulsants (including phenytoin, barbiturates, carbamazepine), which stimulate the activity of liver microsomal enzymes, can enhance the toxic effect of paracetamol on the liver due to an increase in the degree of conversion of the drug to hepatotoxic metabolites. With the simultaneous use of paracetamol with hepatotoxic drugs, the toxic effect of drugs on the liver increases. The simultaneous use of large doses of paracetamol with isoniazid increases the risk of developing hepatotoxic syndrome. Paracetamol reduces the effectiveness of diuretics. Do not use simultaneously with alcohol.

Caution should be exercised when using paracetamol with flucloxacillin, since simultaneous administration is associated with metabolic acidosis with a high anion gap, especially in patients with risk factors (see the section "Special instructions for use" in the instructions for medical use of the drug).

Simultaneous use of caffeine with MAO inhibitors can cause a dangerous increase in blood pressure. Caffeine enhances the effect (improves bioavailability) of analgesics-antipyretics, potentiates the effects of xanthine derivatives, alpha- and beta-adrenomimetics, psychostimulants.

Cimetidine, hormonal contraceptives, isoniazid enhance the effect of caffeine. Caffeine reduces the effect of opioid analgesics, anxiolytics, hypnotics and sedatives, is an antagonist of anesthetics and other drugs that depress the central nervous system, a competitive antagonist of adenosine drugs, ATP. With simultaneous use of caffeine with ergotamine, the absorption of ergotamine from the gastrointestinal tract improves, with thyroid-stimulating drugs - the thyroid effect increases. Caffeine reduces the concentration of lithium in the blood.

Features of use

In patients with impaired liver function, as well as in those who take paracetamol for a long time, it is recommended to regularly perform liver function tests. If the patient uses warfarin or similar drugs that have an anticoagulant effect, a doctor should be consulted before using the drug. Patients who take daily analgesics for mild arthritis should consult a doctor before using the drug. (for more details, see the instructions for medical use of the drug).
Use during pregnancy or breastfeeding.

Do not use during pregnancy or breastfeeding.

Starting from the 20th week of pregnancy, the use of ibuprofen may cause oligohydramnios due to fetal renal dysfunction. In case of exposure to ibuprofen for several days, starting from the 20th week of pregnancy, prenatal monitoring of oligohydramnios should be considered.

Children

The drug should not be used in children under 12 years of age.

Ability to influence the reaction rate when driving vehicles or using other mechanisms

If adverse reactions from the nervous system are observed during treatment with the drug, you should refrain from driving vehicles and working with other mechanisms.
