What is Spasmo Proxyvon Forte?
Spasmo Proxyvon Forte is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) used to treat pain and other symptoms of arthritis of the joints (eg, osteoarthritis), such as inflammation, swelling, stiffness, and joint pain. However, Spasmo Proxyvon Forte does not cure osteoarthritis and will help you only as long as you continue to use it.
Spasmo Proxyvon Forte topical 3% gel is also used to treat actinic keratosis, a skin problem that may become cancerous if not treated. The exact way that topical Spasmo Proxyvon Forte helps this condition is unknown.
Spasmo Proxyvon Forte topical solution is used to treat pain and swelling caused by osteoarthritis of the knees.
Spasmo Proxyvon Forte topical patch is used to treat acute pain caused by minor strains, sprains, and contusions (bruises).
Spasmo Proxyvon Forte is available only with your doctor's prescription.

Spasmo Proxyvon Forte dosage
Carefully consider the potential benefits and risks of Spasmo Proxyvon Forte extended-release tablets, and other treatment options before deciding to use Spasmo Proxyvon Forte extended-release tablets. Use the lowest effective dose for the shortest duration consistent with individual patient treatment goals.
After observing the response to initial therapy with Spasmo Proxyvon Forte extended-release tablets the dose and frequency should be adjusted to suit an individual patient’s needs.
For the relief of osteoarthritis, the recommended dosage is 100 mg daily.
For the relief of rheumatoid arthritis, the recommended dosage is 100 mg daily. In the rare patient where Spasmo Proxyvon Forte extended-release tablets 100 mg/day is unsatisfactory, the dose may be increased to 100 mg twice a day if the benefits outweigh the clinical risks of increased side effects.
Different formulations of Spasmo Proxyvon Forte (Spasmo Proxyvon Forte enteric-coated tablets; Spasmo Proxyvon Forte extended-release tablets; Spasmo Proxyvon Forte potassium immediate-release tablets) are not necessarily bioequivalent even if the milligram strength is the same.
Spasmo Proxyvon Forte interactions
See also:
What other drugs will affect Spasmo Proxyvon Forte?
Aspirin: Concomitant administration of Spasmo Proxyvon Forte and aspirin is not recommended because Spasmo Proxyvon Forte is displaced from its binding sites during the concomitant administration of aspirin, resulting in lower plasma concentrations, peak plasma levels, and AUC values.
Anticoagulants: While studies have not shown Spasmo Proxyvon Forte to interact with anticoagulants of the warfarin type, caution should be exercised, nonetheless, since interactions have been seen with other NSAIDs. Because prostaglandins play an important role in hemostasis, and NSAIDs affect platelet function as well, concurrent therapy with all NSAIDs, including Spasmo Proxyvon Forte, and warfarin requires close monitoring of patients to be certain that no change in their anticoagulant dosage is required.
Digoxin, Methotrexate, Cyclosporine: Spasmo Proxyvon Forte, like other NSAIDs, may affect renal prostaglandins and increase the toxicity of certain drugs. Ingestion of Spasmo Proxyvon Forte may increase serum concentrations of digoxin and methotrexate and increase cyclosporineís nephrotoxicity. Patients who begin taking Spasmo Proxyvon Forte or who increase their Spasmo Proxyvon Forte dose or any other NSAID while taking digoxin, methotrexate, or cyclosporine may develop toxicity characteristics for these drugs. They should be observed closely, particularly if renal function is impaired. In the case of digoxin, serum levels should be monitored.
Lithium: Spasmo Proxyvon Forte decreases lithium renal clearance and increases lithium plasma levels. In patients taking Spasmo Proxyvon Forte and lithium concomitantly, lithium toxicity may develop.
Oral Hypoglycemics:
Spasmo Proxyvon Forte does not alter glucose metabolism in normal subjects nor does it alter the effects of oral hypoglycemic agents. There are rare reports, however, from marketing experiences, of changes in effects of insulin or oral hypoglycemic agents in the presence of Spasmo Proxyvon Forte that necessitated changes in the doses of such agents. Both hypo- and hyperglycemic effects have been reported. A direct causal relationship has not been established, but physicians should consider the possibility that Spasmo Proxyvon Forte may alter a diabetic patientís response to insulin or oral hypoglycemic agents.
Diuretics: Spasmo Proxyvon Forte and other NSAIDs can inhibit the activity of diuretics. Concomitant treatment with potassium-sparing diuretics may be associated with increased serum potassium levels.
Other Drugs: In small groups of patients (7-10/interaction study), the concomitant administration of azathioprine, gold, chloroquine, D-penicillamine, prednisolone, doxycycline, or digitoxin did not significantly affect the peak levels and AUC values of Spasmo Proxyvon Forte. Phenobarbital toxicity has been reported to have occurred in a patient on chronic phenobarbital treatment following the initiation of Spasmo Proxyvon Forte therapy.
Protein Binding
In vitro, Spasmo Proxyvon Forte interferes minimally or not at all with the protein binding of salicylic acid (20% decrease in binding), tolbutamide, prednisolone (10% decrease in binding), or warfarin. Benzylpenicillin, ampicillin, oxacillin, chlortetracycline, doxycycline, cephalothin, erythromycin, and sulfamethoxazole have no influence in vitro on the protein binding of Spasmo Proxyvon Forte in human serum.
Drug/Laboratory Test Interactions
Effect on Blood Coagulation: Spasmo Proxyvon Forte increases platelet aggregation time but does not affect bleeding time, plasma thrombin clotting time, plasma fibrinogen, or factors V and VII to XII. Statistically significant changes in prothrombin and partial thromboplastin times have been reported in normal volunteers. The mean changes were observed to be less than 1 second in both instances, however, and are unlikely to be clinically important. Spasmo Proxyvon Forte is a prostaglandin synthetase inhibitor, however, and all drugs that inhibit prostaglandin synthesis interfere with platelet function to some degree; therefore, patients who may be adversely affected by such an action should be carefully observed.

Clinical Practice
The following reactions have been identified during postmarketing use of topical Spasmo Proxyvon Forte ophthalmic solution, 0.1% in clinical practice. Because they are reported voluntarily from a population of unknown size, estimates of frequency cannot be made. The reactions, which have been chosen for inclusion due to either their seriousness, frequency of reporting, possible causal connection to topical Spasmo Proxyvon Forte ophthalmic solution, 0.1%, or a combination of these factors, include corneal erosion, corneal infiltrates, corneal perforation, corneal thinning, corneal ulceration and epithelilal breakdown.
