Concomitant Use of Nsaids Or Ssris with Noacs Requires Monitoring for Bleeding Original Article Yonsei Med J 2020 Sep;61(9):741-749 https://doi.org/10.3349/ymj.2020.61.9.741 pISSN: 0513-5796 · eISSN: 1976-2437 Concomitant Use of NSAIDs or SSRIs with NOACs Requires Monitoring for Bleeding Min-Taek Lee1, Kwang-Yeol Park2, Myo-Song Kim1, Seung-Hun You1, Ye-Jin Kang1, and Sun-Young Jung1 1College of Pharmacy, Chung-Ang University, Seoul; 2Department of Neurology, Chung-Ang University Hospital, Chung-Ang University College of Medicine, Seoul, Korea. Purpose: Non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants (NOACs) are widely used in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) because of their effectiveness in preventing stroke and their better safety, compared with warfarin. However, there are concerns for an in- creased risk of bleeding associated with concomitant use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) or selective sero- tonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) with NOACs. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the risk of bleeding events in individuals taking concomitant NSAIDs or SSRIs with NOACs after being diagnosed with AF. Materials and Methods: A nested case-control analysis to assess the safety of NSAIDs and SSRIs among NOAC users with AF was performed using data from Korean National Health Insurance Service from January 2012 to December 2017. Among patients who were newly prescribed NOACs, 1233 cases hospitalized for bleeding events were selected, and 24660 controls were determined. Results: The risk of bleeding events was higher in patients receiving concomitant NSAIDs [adjusted odds ratio (aOR) 1.41; 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.24–1.61] or SSRIs (aOR 1.92; 95% CI 1.52–2.42) with NOACs, compared to no use of either drug, respec- tively. The risk of upper gastrointestinal bleeding was higher in patients receiving concomitant NSAIDs or SSRIs without proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) (NSAIDs: aOR 2.47; 95% CI 1.26–4.83, SSRI: aOR 10.8; 95% CI 2.41–2.48) compared to no use. Conclusion: When NSAIDs or SSRIs are required for NOAC users with AF, physicians need to monitor bleeding events and con- sider the use of PPIs, especially for combined use of both drugs or when initiating NOACs treatment.

Batch specific analytical results are provided on each certificate of analysis. Laboratory Procedures Polmacoxib is supplied as a crystalline solid. A stock solution may be made by dissolving the polmacoxib in the solvent of choice. Polmacoxib is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol, DMSO, and dimethyl formamide (DMF), which should be purged with an inert gas. The solubility of polmacoxib in ethanol is approximately 5 mg/ml and approximately 20 mg/ml in DMSO and DMF. Polmacoxib is sparingly soluble in aqueous buffers. For maximum solubility in aqueous buffers, polmacoxib should first be dissolved in DMSO and then diluted with the aqueous buffer of choice. Polmacoxib has a solubility of approximately 0.5 mg/ml in a 1:8 solution of DMSO:PBS (pH 7.2) using this method. We do not recommend storing the aqueous solution for more than one day. Description Polmacoxib is an inhibitor of cyclooxygenase 2 (COX-2) and the carbonic anhydrase subtypes I (CAI) and 1 CAII. It inhibits COX-2 in the absence of carbonic anhydrase II with an IC50 value of 40 nM, which increases by approximately 4- and 17-fold in the presence of a CAII at a molar ratio of 1:1 and 1:5, respectively.2 It also inhibits CAI and CAII (IC50s = 210 and 95 nM, respectively).
