Oxycodone and Acetaminophen (Capsule)
|
| dailymed-instance:dosage |
Dosage should be adjusted accordingly to severity of pain and response of the patient. It may occasionally be necessary to exceed the usual dosage recommended below in cases of more severe pain or in those patients who have become tolerant to the analgesic effect of narcotics. The usual adult dosage is one capsule every six hours as needed for pain.

Each capsule, for oral administration, contains: Oxycodone Hydrochloride+............................................. 5 mg Acetaminophen................................................................. 500 mg (+5 mg Oxycodone HCl is equivalent to 4.4815 mg Oxycodone) In addition, each capsule contains the following inactive ingredients: hard gelatin capsule (which contains FD&C Red #40, D&C Red #28, D&C Yellow #10, titanium dioxide, sodium lauryl sulfate, sodium propionate, edetate calcium disodium, benzyl alcohol, butylparaben, propylparaben, methylparaben, gelatin), starch (corn), croscarmellose sodium, colloidal silicon dioxide, sodium lauryl sulfate, stearic acid, magnesium stearate and printing ink (pharmaceutical glaze, synthetic black iron oxide, lecithin, SDA-3A alcohol, deionizedwater, ethylene glycol monoethyl ether, simethicone). Acetaminophen, 4'-hydroxyacetanilide, is a non-opiate, non-salicylate analgesic and antipyretic which occurs as a white, odorless, crystalline powder, possessing a slightly bitter taste. Its structural formula is: The oxycodone component is 14-hydroxydihydrocodeinone, a white, odorless crystalline powder which is derived from the opium alkaloid, thebaine, and may be represented by the following structural formula:

The principal ingredient, oxycodone, is a semi-synthetic narcotic analgesic with multiple actions qualitatively similar to those of morphine; the most prominent of these involve the central nervous system and organs composed of smooth muscle. The principal actions of therapeutic value of oxycodone are analgesia and sedation. Oxycodone is similar to codeine and methadone in that it retains at least one-half of its analgesic activity when administered orally. Acetaminophen is a non-opiate, non-salicylate analgesic and antipyretic.

Acetaminophen::<br/>Signs and Symptoms:: In acute acetaminophen overdosage, dose-dependent, potentially fatal hepatic necrosis is the most serious adverse effect. Renal tubular necrosis, hypoglycemic coma and thrombocytopenia may also occur. In adults, hepatic toxicity has rarely been reported with acute overdoses of less than 10 grams and fatalities with less than 15 grams. Importantly, young children seem to be more resistant than adults to the hepatotoxic effect of an acetaminophen overdose. Despite this, the measures outlined below should be initiated in any adult or child suspected of having ingested an acetaminophen overdose. Early symptoms following a potentially hepatotoxic overdosage may include: nausea, vomiting, diaphoresis and general malaise. Clinical and laboratory evidence of hepatic toxicity may not be apparent until 48 to 72 hours post-ingestion.<br/>Treatment:: The stomach should be emptied promptly by lavage or by induction of emesis with syrup of ipecac. Patients' estimates of the quantity of a drug ingested are notoriously unreliable. Therefore, if an acetaminophen overdose is suspected, a serum acetaminophen assay should be obtained as early as possible, but no sooner than four hours following ingestion. Liver function studies should be obtained initially and repeated at 24-hour intervals. The antidote, N-acetylcysteine, should be administered as early as possible, preferably within 16 hours of the overdose ingestion for optimal results, but in any case, within 24 hours. Following recovery, there are no residual, structural or functional hepatic abnormalities.<br/>Oxycodone::<br/>Signs and Symptoms:: Serious overdosage with oxycodone is characterized by respiratory depression (a decrease in respiratory rate and/or tidal volume, Cheyne-Stokes respiration, cyanosis), extreme somnolence progressing to stupor or coma, skeletal muscle flaccidity, cold and clammy skin, and sometimes bradycardia and hypotension. In severe overdosage, apnea, circulatory collapse, cardiac arrest and death may occur.<br/>Treatment:: Primary attention should be given to the reestablishment of adequate respiratory exchange through provision of a patent airway and the institution of assisted or controlled ventilation. The narcotic antagonist naloxone hydrochloride is a specific antidote against respiratory depression which may result from overdosage or unusual sensitivity to narcotics, including oxycodone. Therefore, an appropriate dose of naloxone hydrochloride (usual initial adult dose 0.4 mg to 2 mg, see package insert) should be administered, preferably by the intravenous route, and simultaneously with efforts at respiratory resuscitation. (See package insert.) Since the duration of action of oxycodone may exceed that of the antagonist, the patient should be kept under continued surveillance and repeated doses of the antagonist should be administered as needed to maintain adequate respiration. An antagonist should not be administered in the absence of clinically significant respiratory or cardiovascular depression. Oxygen, intravenous fluids, vasopressors and other supportive measures should be employed as indicated. Gastric emptying may be useful in removing unabsorbed drug.

The most frequently observed adverse reactions include lightheadedness, dizziness, sedation, nausea and vomiting. These effects seem to be more prominent in ambulatory than in non-ambulatory patients, and some of these adverse reactions may be alleviated if the patient lies down. Other adverse reactions include euphoria, dysphoria, constipation, skin rash, and pruritus. At higher doses, oxycodone has most of the disadvantages of morphine including respiratory depression.
|
| dailymed-instance:warning |
Drug Dependence: Oxycodone can produce drug dependence of the morphine type and, therefore, has the potential for being abused. Psychic dependence, physical dependence and tolerance may develop upon repeated administration of this drug, and it should be prescribed and administered with the same degree of caution appropriate to the use of other oral narcotic-containing medications. Like other narcotic-containing medications, this drug is subject to the Federal Controlled Substances Act (Schedule II).
