INSTRUCTION SHEET on medical application of the preparation ACECARDOL Registration number Preparation trade name: Acecardol International nonproprietary name - Acetylsalicylic acid Dosage form: enteric coated tablets. Composition for a tablet: Active substance: 50, 100 or 300 mg of Acetylsalicylic acid. Accessory substances: low-molecular povidone (medicinal low-molecular polyvinyl pyrrolidone 12600+2700), corn starch, microcrystalline cellulose, magnsium stearate, talcum powder, lactose monohydrate (milk sugar). Accessory substances for obtaining the coat: cellacefate (acetylftali-cellulose), titanium dioxide, castor oil. Description: round tablets of double convex form coated with white or almost white casing. Pharmacotherapeutic group: antiplatelet agent. ATC Code: [В01АС06]. Pharmacological action The basis of mechanism of antiplatelet action of acetylsalicylic acid is formed of irreversible inhibition of cyclooxygenase (COG-1), as a result of which thromboxane A2 synthesis is blocked and thrombocyte aggregation is suppressed. Antiplatelet action develops even with low dosages of the preparation and is retained within 7 days after a single intake. It is considered that Acetylsalicylic acid has also other mechanisms of thrombocyte aggregation suppression. In large doses Acetylsalicylic acid (more than 300 mg per day) also has an anti-inflammatory, antipyretic and analgesic effect. Pharmacokinetics After ingestion the acetylsalicylic acid is quickly and completely absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract. The Acetylsalicylic acid is partially metabolized at the time of absorption. At the time of and after absorption the Acetylsalicylic acid turns into a principal metabolite - salicylic acid, which is metabolited principally in liver under the influence of ferments with formation of such metabolites as phenyl salicylate, salicylic acid glucuronid and salicyluric acid, those are appeared to be found in many tissues and urina. In women the metabolism process runs slower (less ferment strength in blood plasma). The maximum concentration in blood plasma is observed after ingestion in 10 - 20 minutes after administration, the maximum concentration of salicylic acid is got in the space of 0.3 -2 hours. Due to the fact that the tablets are covered with acid-resistant coat, the acetylsalicylic acid is released not in the stomach (the coat effectively blocks dissipation of the preparation in stomach), but in alcaline condition of the dodecadactylon. In that way absorption of acetylsalicylic acid in tabloid form covered with enteric coat is retarded for 3-6 hours as compared to common (without such coating) tablets. Acetylsalicylic acid and salicylic acid become bound with plasma proteins (from 66 % to 98 % depending on the dose) and quickly disperse in the organism. Salicylic acid works way through the placenta and also into human milk. Egestion of the salicylic acid depends on the dose, because its metabolism is limited by the abilities of the fermentative system. Half-life period is at least 2-3 hours in case of application of acetylsalicylic acid in small doses and up to 15 hours in case of application of the preparation in high doses (common doses of acetylsalicylic acid in the capacity of pain reliever). In contrast to other salicylates, in multiple intake of the medication non-hydrolyzed Acetylsalicylic acid is not accumulated in blood serum. Salicylic acid and its metabolites are egested by the kidneys. In patients with normal kidney function 80-100% of a single dose of the preparation is egested by the kidneys within 24-72 hours. 1 Indication for application Prevention of acute myocardial infarction with risk factors (for example diabetes, hyperlipemia, arterial hypertension, obesity, smoking, elderly age) and the secondary myocardial infarction; Unstable angina; Blood-stroke prevention (including in patients with transient ischemic attack); Prevention of thrombembolia after vessels surgery and invasive interventions (for example aortocoronary bypass, endarterectomy of carotid arteries, arteriovenous bypass, angioplasty of carotid arteries); Prevention of deep venous thrombosis and embolism of pulmonary artery and its branches including in patients with long-term immobilization because of major surgical intervention. Counter-indications Hypersensitivity to Acetylsalicylic acid, erosive-ulcerous damage of gastrointestinal tract (in phase of aggravation), gastrointestinal bleedings, hemorrhagic diathesis, bronchial asthma induced by administration of salicylates, -complete or incomplete combination of bronchial allergy, recrudescent polyposis of nose and paranasal sinuses and Acetylsalicylic acid intolerance, frank renal insufficiency (creatine clearance is less than 30 ml/minute), frank hepatic insufficiency (B and C grade according to Child –Pugh scale), chronic cardiac failure (III-IV functional grade according to NYHA classification), simultaneous intake of methotrexate in dose 15 mg per week and more, pregnancy (I and III trimesters) and lactation period, age under 18 years old, lactase deficit, lactose intolerance, glucose-galactose malabsorption syndrome. If you have one of the mentioned diseases, be sure to consult a doctor before intake of the medication. Use with care In patients with podagra, hyperuricemia because the Acetylsalicylic acid in low dosages reduces egestion of uric acid; it is well to bear in mind that the Acetylsalicylic acid in low dosages can provoke development of uratic arthritis by liable patient (having low egestion of uric acid); peptic ulcer of the stomach and dodecadactylon or gastrointestinal hemorrhage (in anamnesis); compromised liver function (A grade according to Child-Pugh scale); parafunction kidney (creatine clearance is more than 30 ml/minute); bronchial asthma, chronical diseases of respiratory organs, pollen fever, nasal polyposis, medicamentous allergy; in combination with methotrexate in a dose of less than 15 mg a week, associated therapy by anticoagulating agents, pregnancy (II trimrster); in supposed surgical intervention (including insignificant, for example tooth extraction), because the Acetylsalicylic acid can cause a tendency to development of hemorrhage within several days after intake of the medication. If you have one of the mentioned diseases, be sure to consult a doctor before intake of the medication. Administration during pregnancy and in the breast feeding period Use of big doses of salicylates in the first 3 months of pregnancy is associated with overfrequency of fetal development defects (cleft palate, cardiac anomaly). Prescription of salicylates in I trimester of pregnancy is contraindicative. In the second trimester of pregnancy salicylates can be indicated only with the strict assessment of risk for the fetus and benefit for the mother, preferably in doses not exceeding 150 mg/day and of short duration. In the last trimester of the pregnancy, salicylates in a big dose (more than 300 mg/day) may cause inhibition of birth activities, untimely closing of fetus arterial canal, increased hemorrhage in mother and fetus; administration immediately before birth may cause intracerebral bleedings, especially in immature infants. Indication of salicylates in the last trimester of pregnancy is contraindicative. Salicylates and their metabolites in small amounts penetrate in human milk, therefore in the lactation period breast feeding should be discontinued. 2 Method of application and dosage The tablets of the preparation of Acecardol should be ingested before meals with a big quantity of water once a day. Acecardol is intended for long administration. The therapy duration is determined by a physician in charge. Prophylaxis in case of acute myocardial infarction suspicion. 100 mg a day or 300 mg every other day (the first tablet should be chewed for quicker absorption). Prophylaxis of new onset of acute myocardial infarction with risk factors 100 mg per day or 300 mg every other day Prophylaxis of repeated myocardial infarction and unstable angina: 100 - 300 mg per day. Prophylaxis ischemic blood-stroke and transient ischemic attack: 100 - 300 mg per day. Prophylaxis of thromboembolic disorders after surgeries and intrusive interference on the vessels: 100 - 300 mg per day. Prophylaxis of deep venous thrombosis and embolism of pulmonary artery and its branches: 100 mg per day or 300 mg every other day. Adverse events Gastrointestinal tract: nausea, epigastric burning, vomit, pains in the abdominal region; ulcers of mucous coat of stomach and dodecadactylon; ruptured ulcers of stomach and dodecadactylon, gastrointestinal hemorrhage, transient compromised liver function with increment in activity of hepatic transaminases. Hematopoietic system: administration of Acetylsalicylic acid is accompanied with increased risk of hemorrhage in consequence of depressant action of the Acetylsalicylic acid on thrombocyte aggregation, anemia. Allergic reactions: exanthema, skin itch, urticaria fever, Quincke's disease, rhinitis, rhinedema, cardiorespiratory distress-syndrome as well as severe reactions including anaphylactic shock. Respiratory system: bronchismus. Central nervous system: faintness, decrease of hearing, headache, entotic sound. If any one of the mentioned adverse events worsen or if you notice any other adverse events not specified in the instruction, please inform thereof to the doctor. Overdosage Overdose is unlikely to occur in consequence of low content of Acetylsalicylic acid in the medication. Excess of Acetylsalicylic acid dose is linked with risk of gastrointestinal hemorrhage. Overdosage is especially dangerous in patients of elderly age. Symptom of overdosage from light to medium rate of severity: faintness, entotic sound, impairment of hearing, excessive sweating (including profuse), nausea, vomiting, headache, confused mental state, polypnea, hyperventilation, respiratory alkalosis. Medical treatment: gastrodialysis, multiple dose of activated carbon, forced alcaline diuresis, reactivation of water-electrolytic balance and acid-base balance. Symptoms of overdosage from medium to severe: - respiratory alkalosis with compensatory metabolic acidosis; - hyperpyrexia (extremely high body temperature); - respiration disturbance: hyperventilation, cardiogenic pulmonary edema, respiratory depression, asphyxia; - disorders on the part of cardiovascular system: heart rhythm disturbance, decrease of arterial tension, suppression of cardio activity; - water and electrolyte imbalance: anhydration, parafunction of kidney from oligohydruria down to development of renal insufficiency characterized by - hypokalemia, hypernatremia, hyponatremia; - error of glucose metabolism: hyperglycemia, hypoglycaemia (especially in children), ketoacidosis; - entotic sound, deafness; - gastrointestinal hemorrhages; - hematologic disorders: from inhibition of thrombocyte aggregation to coagulopathy, lengthening of 3 prothrombin time, hypoprothrombinemia; - neurological disorders: toxic encephalopathy and suppression of central nervous function (drowsiness, confused mental state, coma, convulsions). Medical treatment: immediate hospitalization to special-purpose departments for performance of maintenance emergency management - gastrodialysis, multiple dose of activated carbon, forced alcaline diuresis, haemodialysis, reactivation of water-electrolytic balance and acid-base balance, symptom management. In carrying out alcaline diuresis it is necessary to reach pH value between 7.5 and 8. Forced alcaline diuresis should be conducted when concentration of salicylates in blood plasm compose more than 500 mg/l (3.6 mmol/l) in adults and 300 mg/l (2.2 mmol/l) in children. Interaction with other medicinal agents During conjoined administration Acetylsalicylic acid increases action of the following medical agents: - methotrexate due to blood clearance rate lowering and its displacement from the link with proteins; also the combination of acetylsalicylic acid with methotrexate is accompanied by overfrequency of development of adverse events on the part of blood-forming organs; - heparin and indirect anticoagulants due to thrombocyte dysfunction and displacement of indirect anticoagulants from the link with blood serum proteins; - thrombolytic agents and antiaggregants; - digoxin due to decline of its renal excretion; - hypoglycemic agents (insulin and Sulfonylurea derivatives) by means of hypoglycemic properties of acetylsalicylic acid itself in high doses and displacement of Sulfonylurea derivatives from links with plasma proteins; - valproic acid by means of its displacement from links with plasma proteins. Combination of acetylsalicylic acid with anticoagulating agents, thrombolytics and antiaggregants is accompanied by increased risk of hemorrhage development. In simultaneous intake of acetylsalicylic acid with alcohol strengthening of toxic effect of alcohol on central nervous system is observed, risk of damage of gastrointestinal tract mucous membrane and bleeding lengthening rises. Acetylsalicylic acid weakens effect of uricosuric preparations - benzbromarone (weakening of uricosuric action owing to competitive suppression of renal canalicular excretion of uric acid), inhibitirs of angiotensine transforming enzymes (dose-dependent action decrease in speed of glomerular filtration in consequence of inhibition of prostaglandins possessing vasorelaxant action, correspondingly weakening of hypotensive action are registered), diuretics (in case of simultaneous application with acetylsalicylic acid in high doses decrease in speed of glomerular filtration in consequence of decrease of prostaglandin synthesis in kidneys is registered). Strengthen elimination of salicylates the system glucocorticosteroids weaken their effect. Special instructions Acetylsalicylic acid can encourage bronchismus, as well as promote assault of spasmodic asthma and other hypersensitivity reactions. The main risk factors are bronchial asthma in anamnesis, pollen fever, nasal polyposis, chronical diseases of the respiratory system and allergic reactions for other preparations (for example, skin reactions, itch, generalized rash). Inhibitory action of acetylsalicylic acid on thrombocyte aggregation is preserved during several days after intake, in connection with that raise of risk of hemorrhage in the course of surgical interference or in postsurgical period is possible. If absolute exception of angiostaxis in the course of operative measure is required then it is necessary as far as possible to completely refuse the use of acetylsalicylic acid in pre-surgical period. Acetylsalicylic acid in small doses can provoke development of podagra in liable persons (those having lower excretion of uric acid). In case of combined administration of acetylsalicylic acid and salicylates, it should be remembered that salicylates concentration in blood is reduced during treatment, and after Acetylsalicylic acid withdrawal, overdosage of salicylates is possible. 4 Overdosage of acetylsalicylic acid may cause gastroenteric bleedings. Effect on car driving and mechanism operating At the time of intake of Acecardol medication one should exercise caution in driving transportation vehicles, machinery and when performing other potentially dangerous kinds of activity, requiring elevated concentration of attention and quickness of psychomotor actions.
