celecoxib/tramadol (Rx)

Brand and Other Names:Seglentis

Dosing & Uses

AdultPediatric

Dosage Forms & Strengths

celecoxib/tramadol HCl

tablets, Schedule IV

  • 56mg/44mg
  • 44mg tramadol HCl equivalent to 39mg tramadol

Acute Pain

Indicated for management of acute pain in adults that requires opioid analgesic and for which alternative treatments are inadequate

2 tablets (112 mg celecoxib/88 mg tramadol HCl) PO q12hr PRN

Do NOT exceed recommended dose

Dosage Modifications

Renal impairment

  • Tramadol: Impaired renal function decreases rate and extent of excretion of tramadol and its active metabolite, M1
  • Celecoxib: No significant relationship observed between GFR and celecoxib clearance; patients with severe renal insufficiency have not been studied

Hepatic impairment

  • Mild-to-moderate: Not recommended; tramadol and celecoxib are both extensively metabolized by the liver
  • Tramadol
    • Metabolism of tramadol and M1 are reduced with severe hepatic impairment based on study in advanced liver cirrhosis (resulted in larger AUC and longer half-lives)
  • Celecoxib
    • Since the combination of celecoxib and tramadol cannot be adjusted individually, use in moderate hepatic impairment is not recommended
    • Moderate (Child-Pugh B): When used as a single agent, reduce celecoxib dose by 50%
    • Severe (Child-Pugh C): Not recommended

Dosing Considerations

Closely monitor for respiratory depression, especially within first 24-72 hr of therapy and after dosage increases; adjust dosage accordingly

When initiating, consider severity of pain, patient response, prior analgesic treatment experience, and risk factors for addiction, abuse, and misuse

Do not use concomitantly with other tramadol- or celecoxib-containing products

Assess need for naloxone upon initiating and renewing treatment

Consider prescribing naloxone

  • Based on patient’s risk factors for overdose (eg, concomitant use of CNS depressants, a history of opioid use disorder, prior opioid overdose); presence of risk factors should not prevent proper pain management
  • Household members (including children) or other close contacts at risk for accidental ingestion or overdose
  • Consult patients and caregivers regarding
    • Availability of naloxone for emergency treatment of opioid overdose
    • How to obtain naloxone as permitted by individual state dispensing and prescribing requirements or guidelines (eg, by prescription, directly from a pharmacist, as part of a community-based program)

Discontinuation

  • Do not abruptly discontinue in patients who may be physically dependent on opioids
  • Rapid discontinuation of opioid analgesics has resulted in serious withdrawal symptoms, uncontrolled pain, and suicide
  • For physically opioid-dependent: Initiate small increment taper (eg, 10-25% of total daily dose) to avoid withdrawal symptoms, and proceed with decreasing dose every 2-4 weeks
  • Patients who have been taking opioids for shorter periods may tolerate a more rapid taper
  • Reassess frequently to manage pain and withdrawal symptoms

Limitations of use

  • Owing to risks of addiction, abuse, and misuse with opioids, reserve use in patients for whom alternative treatment options (eg, nonopioid analgesics)
    • Not tolerated, or not expected to tolerate
    • Have not provided, or are not expected to provide, adequate analgesia

            Accidental ingestion

            • Accidental ingestion of even 1 dose, especially by children, can result in a fatal overdose

            CV risk

            • NSAIDs may increase risk of serious CV thrombotic events, MI, and stroke, which can be fatal
            • Risk may increase with duration of use
            • Patients with existing CV disease or risk factors for such disease may be at greater risk
            • NSAIDs are contraindicated for perioperative pain in setting of CABG surgery

            GI risk

            • NSAIDs increased risk of serious GI adverse events, including bleeding, ulceration, and gastric or intestinal perforation, which can be fatal
            • GI adverse events may occur at any time during use and without warning symptoms
            • Elderly patients are at greater risk for serious GI events

            Neonatal opioid withdrawal syndrome

            • Prolonged use during pregnancy can result in neonatal opioid withdrawal syndrome, which may be life-threatening if not recognized and treated, and requires management according to protocols developed by neonatology experts
            • If opioid use is required for a prolonged period in a pregnant woman, advise the patient of the risk of neonatal opioid withdrawal syndrome and ensure that appropriate treatment will be available

            Ultra-rapid metabolism and other risk factors for life-threatening respiratory depression in children

            • Life-threatening respiratory depression reported in children who received tramadol; some reported cases occurred following tonsillectomy and/or adenoidectomy, and in at least 1 case, the child had evidence of being an ultra-rapid metabolizer of tramadol due to a CYP2D6 polymorphism
            • Contraindicated in children aged <12 years and in children aged <18 years following tonsillectomy and/or adenoidectomy
            • Avoid in adolescents aged 12-18 years who have other risk factors that may increase sensitivity to respiratory depressant effects

            Interactions with drugs affecting cytochrome P450 (CYP) isoenzymes

            • Effects of concomitant use or discontinuation of CYP3A4 inducers, CYP3A4 inhibitors, or CYP2D6 inhibitors with tramadol are complex
            • Use of CYP3A4 inducers, CYP3A4 inhibitors, or CYP2D6 inhibitors requires careful consideration of the effects on the parent drug, tramadol, and the active metabolite, M1

            Risks from concomitant use with benzodiazepines or other CNS depressants

            • Coadministration of opioids with benzodiazepines or other CNS depressants, including alcohol, may result in profound sedation, respiratory depression, coma, and death

            History of asthma, urticaria, or other allergic-type reactions after taking aspirin or other NSAIDs

            Cautions

            Schedule IV controlled substance (ie, tramadol); exposes users to risks of addiction, abuse, and misuse

            Serotonin syndrome may occur; may be life-threatening; may occur with use of tramadol alone, with concomitant use of serotonergic drugs, or with drugs that impair metabolism of serotonin or tramadol

            May be subject to the same polymorphic metabolism as codeine, with ultra-rapid metabolizers of CYP2D6 substrates being potentially exposed to life-threatening levels of O-desmethyltramadol (M1)

            Opioids can cause sleep-related breathing disorders including central sleep apnea and sleep-related hypoxemia

            Prolonged use during pregnancy can result in withdrawal in the neonate

            Seizures reported; may occur at recommended tramadol dose; coadministration with other drugs may increase seizure risk; risk may increase in patients with epilepsy, a history of seizures, and in patients with a recognized risk for seizures

            May increase the risk of suicide; do not prescribe for patients who are suicidal or addiction-prone

            Cases of adrenal insufficiency reported with opioid use, more often following >1 month of use; if diagnosed, treat with physiologic replacement doses of corticosteroids

            Patients with significant chronic obstructive pulmonary disease or cor pulmonale, and those with a substantially decreased respiratory reserve, hypoxia, hypercapnia, or preexisting respiratory depression, are at increased risk of decreased respiratory drive including apnea; closely monitor

            Severe hypotension (eg, orthostatic hypotension, syncope) may occur; monitor for signs of hypotension after initiating or titrating

            May reduce respiratory drive, and resultant carbon dioxide retention can further increase intracranial pressure (ICP) in patients with increased ICP, brain tumors, head injury, or impaired consciousness; monitor for signs of sedation and respiratory depression, particularly when initiating therapy; avoid use in patients with impaired consciousness or coma

            Spasm of the sphincter of Oddi reported; opioids may cause increases in serum amylase; monitor with biliary tract disease, including acute pancreatitis, for worsening symptoms

            Serious and rarely fatal anaphylactic reactions reported

            Avoid use in patients with severe heart failure (HF) unless benefits outweigh risk of worsening HF; if used in such patients, monitor for signs of worsening HF

            Fluid retention and edema may occur; use of celecoxib may blunt the cardiovascular (CV) effects of several therapeutic agents used to treat these medical conditions (eg, diuretics, angiotensin-converting enzyme [ACE] inhibitors, or angiotensin-receptor blockers [ARBs])

            Long-term NSAID use may result in renal papillary necrosis and other renal injury; patients at greatest risk include elderly individuals, those with impaired renal function, hypovolemia, heart failure, liver dysfunction, or salt depletion, and those taking diuretics, ACE inhibitors, or ARBs; correct volume status in dehydrated or hypovolemic patients before initiating therapy; monitor renal function in patients with renal or hepatic impairment, heart failure, dehydration, or hypovolemia during use

            Increase risk of hyperkalemia may occur; monitor potassium closely

            When used in patients with preexisting asthma (without known aspirin sensitivity), monitor for changes in signs and symptoms of asthma

            Avoid use of NSAIDs in pregnant females at about ≥30 weeks’ gestation

            Use of NSAIDs at about ≥20 weeks’ gestation in pregnancy may cause fetal renal dysfunction leading to oligohydramnios and, in some cases, neonatal renal impairment

            Anemia reported in NSAID-treated patients; if any signs or symptoms of anemia occur, monitor hemoglobin or hematocrit

            NSAIDs may increase the risk of bleeding events; comorbid conditions such as coagulation disorders or concomitant use of warfarin, other anticoagulants, antiplatelet agents (eg, aspirin), serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) and serotonin norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs) may increase this risk; monitor for signs of bleeding

            Do not abruptly discontinue therapy in a patient physically dependent on opioids; gradually taper dose

            May impair the mental or physical abilities needed to perform potentially hazardous activities; warn patients not to drive or operate dangerous machinery unless tolerant to the drug effects and know the reaction to therapy

            Pharmacological activity in reducing inflammation, and possibly fever, may diminish the utility of diagnostic signs in detecting infections

            Hyponatremia reported, many cases severe; most cases occurred in females >65 years and within first week of therapy; monitor for signs and symptoms of hyponatremia (eg, confusion, disorientation) during treatment, especially during initiation of therapy; if signs and symptoms of hyponatremia are present, initiate appropriate treatment (eg, fluid restriction) and discontinue therapy

            Cases of tramadol-associated hypoglycemia reported, some resulting in hospitalization; in most cases, patients had predisposing risk factors (eg, diabetes); if hypoglycemia suspected, monitor blood glucose levels, and consider drug discontinuation as appropriate

            Prolonged use during pregnancy can result in withdrawal in the neonate; observe newborns for signs of neonatal opioid withdrawal syndrome and manage accordingly

            CV thrombotic events

            • Increased risk of serious CV thrombotic events, including myocardial infarction (MI) and stroke; use for shortest duration possible to minimize potential risks

            • Children with obstructive sleep apnea who are treated with opioids for post-tonsillectomy and/or adenoidectomy pain may be particularly sensitive to these respiratory depressant effects
            • Avoid use in adolescents aged 12-18 years who have other risk factors that may increase their sensitivity to the respiratory depressant effects of tramadol unless benefits outweigh risks
            • Choose the lowest effective dose for the shortest period; consult patients and caregivers about these risks and the signs of opioid overdose

            Opioid analgesic risk evaluation and mitigation strategy (REMS)

            • Opioid analgesics require a REMS program
            • Discuss safe use, serious risks, and proper storage and disposal of opioid analgesics with patients and/or their caregivers every time these medicines are prescribed; use Patient Counseling Guide (PCG)
            • Emphasize to patients and their caregivers the importance of reading the Medication Guide received from the pharmacy every time an opioid analgesic is dispensed
            • Consider using other tools to improve patient, household, and community safety, such as patient-prescriber agreements that reinforce patient-prescriber responsibilities

              • CYP3A4 inhibitors can increase plasma concentration of tramadol and may increase the metabolism via CYP2D6 and greater levels of M1
            • CYP3A4 inducers
              • Closely monitor for efficacy and for signs of opioid withdrawal
              • If CYP3A4 inducer is discontinued, monitor for seizures and serotonin syndrome, and signs of sedation and respiratory depression
              • Carbamazepine, a CYP3A4 inducer, may have a significantly reduced analgesic effect of tramadol; coadministration with carbamazepine is not recommended.
              • CYP3A4 inducers can decrease the plasma concentration of tramadol, resulting in decreased efficacy or onset of a withdrawal syndrome in patients who have developed physical dependence to tramadol
            • CYP2C9 inhibitors
              • Monitor for toxicities
              • CYP2C9 inhibitors may enhance the exposure and toxicity of celecoxib
            • CYP2C9 inducers
              • Monitor for efficacy maintenance
              • CYP2C9 inducers may decrease celecoxib efficacy
            • Drugs that interfere with hemostasis
              • Monitor if coadministered with anticoagulants (eg, warfarin), antiplatelet agents (eg, aspirin), SSRIs, and SNRIs for signs of bleeding
              • Monitor the prothrombin time of patients on warfarin for signs of an interaction and adjust dosage accordingly
              • Celecoxib and anticoagulants have a synergistic effect on bleeding
              • Serotonin release by platelets plays an important role in hemostasis; concomitant use of drugs that interfere with serotonin reuptake and NSAIDs may potentiate the risk of bleeding
            • Aspirin
              • Not recommended
              • If use of low-dose aspirin for cardiac prophylaxis is necessary, monitor closely for evidence of GI bleeding
              • Coadministration of NSAID and aspirin was associated with a significantly increased incidence of GI adverse reactions
            • NSAIDs and salicylates
              • Not recommended
              • Celecoxib with other NSAIDs or salicylates (eg, diflunisal) increases the risk of GI toxicity, with little or no increase in efficacy
            • CNS depressants
              • Closely monitor for signs and symptoms of respiratory depression and sedation
              • If concomitant use with benzodiazepine is warranted, consider prescribing naloxone for the emergency treatment of opioid overdose
              • Coadministration of opioids with benzodiazepines or other CNS depressants, including alcohol, may result in profound sedation, respiratory depression, coma, and death
              • Reduce initial dose of the opioid analgesic, and titrate based on clinical response if initiating an opioid analgesic in a patient currently taking a benzodiazepine or other CNS depressant
              • Owing to risk of respiratory depression with concomitant use of skeletal muscle relaxants and opioids, consider prescribing naloxone for emergency treatment of opioid overdose
            • Serotonergic drugs
              • Coadministration with serotonergic drugs may increase the risk for serotonin syndrome
              • Serotonergic drugs include SSRIs, SNRIs, tricyclic antidepressants (TCAs), triptans, 5-HT3 receptor antagonists, drugs that affect the serotonergic neurotransmitter system (eg, mirtazapine, trazodone, tramadol), and drugs that impair metabolism of serotonin (including MAOIs)
            • MAOIs
              • Use in patients taking MAOIs or within 14 days of stopping such treatment is contraindicated
              • MAOI may increase the risk of serotonin syndrome or opioid toxicity (eg, respiratory depression, coma)
            • Mixed agonist/antagonist and partial agonist opioid analgesics
              • Avoid coadministration
              • May reduce analgesic effect of tramadol or precipitate withdrawal symptoms
            • ACE inhibitors, ARBs, beta-blockers
              • NSAIDs may diminish antihypertensive effect of ACE inhibitors, ARBs, or beta blockers
              • In patients who are elderly, volume-depleted (including those on diuretic therapy), or have renal impairment, coadministration of an NSAID with ACE inhibitors or ARBs may result in deterioration of renal function, including possible acute renal failure; these effects are usually reversible
              • If coadministered, patients should be well hydrated; monitor for signs of worsening renal function
            • Muscle relaxants
              • Monitor for signs of respiratory depression
              • Tramadol may enhance the neuromuscular blocking action of skeletal muscle relaxants and produce an increased degree of respiratory depression
            • Diuretics
              • NSAIDs may reduce the natriuretic effect of loop and thiazide diuretics
              • This effect is attributed to the NSAID inhibition of renal prostaglandin synthesis
            • Digoxin
              • Monitor digoxin levels
              • Coadministration increases digoxin serum concentration and prolongs digoxin half-life
            • Anticholinergic drugs
              • Monitor for signs of urinary retention or reduced gastric motility
              • Anticholinergic drugs may increase risk of urinary retention and/or severe constipation, which may lead to paralytic ileus
            • Lithium
              • Monitor for lithium toxicity
              • NSAIDs elevate plasma lithium levels and reduce renal lithium clearance
              • Mean minimum lithium concentration increased 15%; renal clearance decreased by ~20%
              • Effect attributed to NSAID inhibition of renal prostaglandin synthesis
            • Corticosteroids
              • Monitor for signs of bleeding
              • Corticosteroids with celecoxib may increase risk of GI ulceration or bleeding
            • Methotrexate
              • Monitor for toxicity
              • Coadministration of NSAIDs and methotrexate may increase risk for methotrexate toxicity (eg, neutropenia, thrombocytopenia, renal dysfunction)
            • Cyclosporine
              • Monitor for worsening renal function
              • Coadministration may increase nephrotoxicity
            • Pemetrexed
              • Monitor for myelosuppression, renal toxicity, and GI toxicity in patients who are renally impaired (CrCl 45-79 mL/min)
              • Avoid NSAIDS with short elimination half-lives (eg, diclofenac, indomethacin) for 2 days before, the day of, and 2 days following pemetrexed administration
              • Patients taking NSAIDs with longer half-lives (eg, meloxicam, nabumetone) should interrupt dosing for at least 5 days before, the day of, and 2 days following pemetrexed administration
              • Celecoxib may increase risk of pemetrexed-associated myelosuppression, renal toxicity, and GI toxicity

            Pregnancy & Lactation

            Pregnancy

            There are no available data on use in pregnant females

            Tramadol

            Prolonged use of opioid analgesics during pregnancy may cause neonatal opioid withdrawal syndrome

            Insufficient data are available in pregnant females to inform a drug-associated risk for major birth defects and miscarriage; observe newborns for symptoms of neonatal opioid withdrawal syndrome and manage accordingly

            Labor and delivery
            • Use of tramadol during labor may lead to respiratory depression in the neonate
            • Opioids cross the placenta and may produce respiratory depression and psychophysiologic effects in neonates
            • An opioid antagonist (eg, naloxone) must be available for reversal of opioid-induced respiratory depression in the neonate
            • Use is not recommended in pregnant females during or immediately prior to labor, when other analgesic techniques are more appropriate
            • Opioid analgesics can prolong labor through actions that temporarily reduce the strength, duration, and frequency of uterine contractions

            Celecoxib

            • There are no adequate and well-controlled studies on pregnant females; data from observational studies regarding potential embryofetal risks of NSAIDs during the 1st or 2nd trimesters are inconclusive
            • Fetal toxicity
              • Use of NSAIDs can cause premature closure of fetal ductus arteriosus and fetal renal dysfunction leading to oligohydramnios and, in some cases, neonatal renal impairment; limit dose and duration of use between about 20 and 30 weeks of gestation, and avoid use at about 30 weeks of gestation and later in pregnancy
              • Use of NSAIDs at about 30 weeks’ gestation or later in pregnancy increases risk of premature closure of fetal ductus arteriosus
              • Use of NSAIDs at about 20 weeks’ gestation or later in pregnancy has been associated with cases of fetal renal dysfunction leading to oligohydramnios and, in some cases, neonatal renal impairment
              • If an NSAID is necessary at about 20 weeks’ gestation or later in pregnancy, limit use to lowest effective dose and shortest duration possible; if treatment extends beyond 48 hours, consider monitoring with ultrasound for oligohydramnios; if oligohydramnios occurs, discontinue drug, and follow up according to clinical practice
            • Labor or delivery
              • There are no studies on the effects of celecoxib during labor or delivery
              • In animal studies, NSAIDs inhibit prostaglandin synthesis, cause delayed parturition, and increase the incidence of stillbirth
            • Infertility
              • Published animal studies have shown that administration of prostaglandin synthesis inhibitors has the potential to disrupt prostaglandin-mediated follicular rupture required for ovulation
              • Consider withdrawal of NSAIDs in females who have difficulties conceiving or who are undergoing investigation of infertility

            Lactation

            Not recommended for obstetrical preoperative medication or for postdelivery analgesia in lactating women

            Celecoxib

            • Limited data from 12 breastfeeding women showed low levels of celecoxib in breast milk
            • Calculated average daily infant dose was 10-40 mcg/kg/day, <1% of the weight-based therapeutic dose for a 2-year-old child

            Tramadol

            • Safety of tramadol in infants and newborns has not been studied
            • Tramadol and its active metabolite, O-desmethyltramadol (M1), are present in human milk
            • Published studies and cases reported excessive sedation, respiratory depression, and death in infants exposed to codeine via breast milk
            • Women who are ultra-rapid metabolizers of tramadol achieve higher than expected serum levels of opioids, potentially leading to higher levels of M1 in breast milk that can be dangerous in their breastfed infants
            • In women with normal tramadol metabolism (normal CYP2D6 activity), the amount of tramadol secreted into human milk is low and dose-dependent
            • Breastfeeding is not recommended during treatment

            Pregnancy Categories

            A: Generally acceptable. Controlled studies in pregnant women show no evidence of fetal risk.

            B: May be acceptable. Either animal studies show no risk but human studies not available or animal studies showed minor risks and human studies done and showed no risk.

            C: Use with caution if benefits outweigh risks. Animal studies show risk and human studies not available or neither animal nor human studies done.

            D: Use in LIFE-THREATENING emergencies when no safer drug available. Positive evidence of human fetal risk.

            X: Do not use in pregnancy. Risks involved outweigh potential benefits. Safer alternatives exist.

            NA: Information not available.

            Pharmacology

            Mechanism of Action

            Tramadol: Nonopioid-derived synthetic opioid; centrally acting analgesic, but may act at least partially by binding to opioid mu receptors, causing inhibition of ascending pain pathways

            Celecoxib: Inhibits cyclooxygenase (COX)–2; does not affect COX-1 (at therapeutic concentrations), thereby decreasing formation of prostaglandin synthesis

            Absorption

            Steady-state was reached for tramadol and M1 (tramadol metabolite) at 2 days

            Peak plasma concentration

            • Tramadol: 214 ng/mL
            • M1 (tramadol metabolite): 55 ng/mL
            • Celecoxib: 259 ng/mL

            Peak plasma time

            • Tramadol: 3 hr
            • M1 (tramadol metabolite): 4 hr

            • Celecoxib: 1930-2128 ng·h/mL

            Food effect

            • With high-fat, high-calorie meal
            • Tramadol and tramadol-M1 metabolite: Not significantly affected
            • Celecoxib: Peak plasma time delayed by ~2.5 hr and AUC and Cmax increased by 30%

            Distribution

            Protein bound

            • Tramadol: ~20% (IV)
            • Celecoxib: ~97%

            Vd

            • Tramadol (IV): 2.6 L/kg (males); 2.9 L/kg (females)
            • Celecoxib: ~400 L

            Metabolism

            Tramadol: Extensively metabolized via CYP2D6 and CYP3A4, as well as by conjugation of parent and metabolites

            Celecoxib

            • Metabolized in liver by CYP2C9
            • Metabolites: Carboxylic acid (SC-62807), glucuronide

            • M1 (tramadol metabolite): 7.2 hr
            • Celecoxib: 13 hr

            Excretion

            • Tramadol: ~30% (urine as unchanged drug); 60% as metabolites; remainder is excreted either as unidentified or as unextractable metabolites
            • Celecoxib: 57% (feces), 27% (urine)

            Pharmacogenomics

            CYP2C9 activity is reduced in individuals with genetic polymorphisms that lead to reduced enzyme activity (eg, individuals who are homozygous for the CYP2C9*2 and CYP2C9*3 polymorphisms)

            Limited data from 4 published reports that included a total of 8 subjects with the homozygous CYP2C9*3/*3 genotype showed celecoxib systemic levels that were 3- to 7-fold higher in these subjects compared with subjects with CYP2C9*1/*1 or *I/*3 genotypes

            Pharmacokinetics of celecoxib have not been evaluated in subjects with other CYP2C9 polymorphisms (eg, *2, *5, *6, *9, and *11)

            Estimated frequency of the homozygous *3/*3 genotype is 0.3-1% in various ethnic groups
