What precautions apply to Flufenamic Acid?
Use of Mobilat Intens should be guided by a healthcare professional and observed for safety.
- Apply only to intact skin: avoid broken or infected areas. - Do not combine with other topical NSAIDs: risk of additive irritation. - Limit duration of use: follow prescriber guidance, typically not exceeding 7‑10 days. - Avoid occlusive dressings unless directed: may increase absorption. - Store at room temperature: keep in the original pack, protect from moisture and direct sunlight.
What does Flufenamic Acid interact with?
Flufenamic acid can interact with systemic medications and other topical agents.
Major Interactions (Avoid): - Concurrent oral NSAIDs: increased risk of systemic NSAID adverse effects. - Anticoagulants (e.g., warfarin): heightened bleeding risk. - Systemic corticosteroids: additive gastrointestinal toxicity.
Moderate Interactions (Monitor Closely): - Topical antibiotics: potential for increased skin irritation. - Alcohol consumption: may exacerbate gastrointestinal irritation if systemic absorption occurs. - Diuretics (e.g., furosemide): possible reduction in renal clearance of NSAIDs.
