Version May 2024
Note: Safety: Use the lowest effective dose for the shortest duration of time (ACR [Kolasinski 2020]). Avoid or use with caution in patients at risk for or with existing cardiovascular disease, GI disease, kidney impairment, chronic liver disease, or a bleeding diathesis due to greater risk for adverse events. Consider administering in combination with a proton pump inhibitor in patients at risk for GI bleeding (eg, taking dual antiplatelet therapy or an anticoagulant, ≥60 years of age, high doses) (ACCF/ACG/AHA [Abraham 2010]; ACCF/ACG/AHA [Bhatt 2008]).
Osteoarthritis: Oral: Usual initial and maintenance dose: 600 mg/day in 2 to 3 divided doses; rarely, patients may be maintained on 300 mg/day in divided doses; maximum dose: 600 mg/day.
Rheumatoid arthritis: Oral: Usual initial and maintenance dose: 600 mg/day in 2 to 3 divided doses; maximum dose: 600 mg/day.
Dosage adjustment for concomitant therapy: Significant drug interactions exist, requiring dose/frequency adjustment or avoidance. Consult drug interactions database for more information.
There are no specific dosage adjustments provided in the manufacturer's labeling; however, dosage adjustment is recommended as tiaprofenic acid is primarily renally eliminated.
Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes 2012 guidelines provide the following recommendations for nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs:
eGFR 30 to <60 mL/minute/1.73 m2: No dosage adjustment necessary; however, use the lowest effective dose for the shortest duration possible. Temporarily discontinue in patients with intercurrent disease that increases risk of acute kidney injury.
eGFR <30 mL/minute/1.73 m2: Use is contraindicated.
Hepatic impairment prior to treatment initiation:
Mild to moderate impairment: No dosage adjustment necessary; however, use the lowest effective dose for the shortest duration possible.
Severe impairment: Use is contraindicated.
Hepatotoxicity during treatment:
Discontinue treatment if clinical signs and symptoms consistent with liver disease develop or if systemic manifestations occur.
Note: Unless alternative agents are ineffective and a gastroprotective agent can be administered, avoid short-term scheduled use in combination with corticosteroids, anticoagulants, or antiplatelet agents or chronic use with or without medications that increase risk for bleeding (Ref).

Concerns related to adverse effects:
• Anaphylactoid reactions: Even in patients without prior exposure, anaphylactoid reactions may occur; patients with "aspirin triad" (bronchial asthma, aspirin intolerance, rhinitis) may be at increased risk.
• Cardiovascular events: [Canadian Boxed Warning]: Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) cause an increased risk of serious (and potentially fatal) adverse cardiovascular thrombotic events, including MI and stroke. Risk may occur early during treatment and may increase with duration of use. Relative risk of serious adverse cardiovascular thrombotic events appears to be similar in those with and without known cardiovascular disease or risk factors for cardiovascular disease; however, absolute incidence of cardiovascular events (which may occur early during treatment) was higher in patients with known cardiovascular disease or risk factors. New-onset hypertension or exacerbation of hypertension may occur (NSAIDs may also impair response to angiotensin-converting-enzyme [ACE] inhibitors, thiazide diuretics, or loop diuretics); may contribute to cardiovascular events; monitor BP; use with caution in patients with hypertension. May cause sodium and fluid retention; use with caution in patients with edema. Avoid use in heart failure (FDA 2015). Avoid use in patients with recent myocardial infarction unless benefits outweigh the risk of cardiovascular thrombotic events (Antman 2008). Use the lowest effective dose for the shortest duration of time, consistent with individual patient goals, to reduce the risk of cardiovascular events; alternate therapies should be considered for patients at high risk.
• CNS effects: May cause drowsiness, dizziness, blurred vision, and other neurologic effects which may impair physical or mental abilities; patients must be cautioned about performing tasks which require mental alertness (eg, operating machinery or driving).
• Cystitis: Severe cases of cystitis (bladder pain, dysuria, urinary frequency, hematuria) have been reported. Avoid use in patients with prior history of urinary symptoms and discontinue at first sign of genitourinary problems (Andreassen 1999).
• Drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms: Potentially serious, sometimes fatal, drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS), also known as multiorgan hypersensitivity reactions, has been reported with NSAIDs. Monitor for signs and symptoms (eg, fever, rash, lymphadenopathy, eosinophilia) in association with other organ system involvement (eg, hepatitis, nephritis, hematological abnormalities, myocarditis, myositis). Early symptoms of hypersensitivity reaction (eg, lymphadenopathy, fever) may occur without rash; discontinue therapy and further evaluate if DRESS is suspected.
• GI events: [Canadian Boxed Warning]: NSAIDs cause increased risk of serious GI inflammation, ulceration, bleeding, and perforation (may be fatal); elderly patients and patients with history of peptic ulcer disease and/or GI bleeding are at greater risk of serious GI events; these events may occur at any time during therapy and without warning. Avoid use in patients with active GI bleeding. In patients with a history of acute lower GI bleeding, avoid use of nonaspirin NSAIDs, especially if due to angioectasia or diverticulosis (Strate 2016). Use caution with a history of GI ulcers, concurrent therapy known to increase the risk of GI bleeding (eg, aspirin, anticoagulants, and/or corticosteroids, selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors), advanced hepatic disease, coagulopathy, smoking, use of ethanol, or in elderly or debilitated patients. Use the lowest effective dose for the shortest duration of time, consistent with individual patient goals, to reduce risk of GI adverse events; alternate therapies should be considered for patients at high risk. In patients with a history of GI ulcer bleeding requiring NSAID therapy, a COX-2 inhibitor in combination with a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) is recommended to reduce the risk of recurrent bleeding (ACCF/ACG/AHA [Barkun 2019]). When used concomitantly with aspirin, a substantial increase in the risk of GI complications (eg, ulcer) occurs; concomitant gastroprotective therapy (eg, PPIs) is recommended (Bhatt 2008).
• Hematologic effects: Platelet adhesion and aggregation may be decreased; may prolong bleeding time; patients with coagulation disorders or who are receiving anticoagulants should be monitored closely. Anemia may occur; patients on long-term NSAID therapy should be monitored for anemia. Rarely, NSAID use has been associated with potentially severe blood dyscrasias (eg, agranulocytosis, thrombocytopenia, aplastic anemia).
• Hepatic effects: Transaminase elevations have been reported with use. Rare (sometimes fatal), severe hepatic reactions (eg, fulminant hepatitis, hepatic necrosis, hepatic failure) have occurred with NSAID use; discontinue if signs or symptoms of liver disease develop, if systemic manifestations occur, or with persistent or worsening abnormal hepatic function tests.
• Hyperkalemia: NSAID use may increase the risk of hyperkalemia, particularly in patients ≥65 years of age, diabetics, renal disease, and with concomitant use of other agents capable of inducing hyperkalemia (eg, ACE inhibitors). Monitor potassium closely.
• Ocular effects: May cause blurred or diminished vision; discontinue use with blurred or diminished vision and perform ophthalmologic exam.
• Renal effects: NSAID use may compromise existing renal function; dose-dependent decreases in prostaglandin synthesis may result from NSAID use, reducing renal blood flow, which may cause renal decompensation. Patients with impaired renal function, dehydration, hypovolemia, heart failure, liver dysfunction, those taking diuretics, and ACE inhibitors, angiotensin II receptor blockers, and patients ≥65 years of age are at greater risk of renal toxicity. Rehydrate patient before starting therapy; monitor renal function closely. Long-term NSAID use may result in renal papillary necrosis.
• Skin reactions: NSAIDs may cause potentially fatal serious skin adverse events including exfoliative dermatitis, Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS), and toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN); discontinue use at first sign of skin rash or hypersensitivity.
Disease-related concerns:
• Aseptic meningitis: May increase the risk of aseptic meningitis, especially in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus and mixed connective tissue disorders.
• Asthma: Contraindicated in patients with aspirin-sensitive asthma; severe and potentially fatal bronchospasm may occur. Use caution in patients with other forms of asthma.
• Bariatric surgery: Gastric ulceration: Avoid chronic use of oral nonselective NSAIDs after bariatric surgery; development of anastomotic ulcerations/perforations may occur (Bhangu 2014; Mechanick 2020). Short-term use of celecoxib or IV ketorolac are recommended as part of a multimodal pain management strategy for postoperative pain (Chou 2016; Horsley 2019; Thorell 2016).
• Hypertension: Use with caution; may cause new-onset hypertension or worsening of existing hypertension.
Special populations:
• Older adult: Patients ≥65 years of age are at increased risk for serious GI, cardiovascular, and/or renal adverse effects. Use with caution; initiate at the lower end of dosing range.
Other warnings/precautions:
• Surgical/Dental procedures: Withhold for at least 4 to 6 half-lives prior to surgical or dental procedures.

Beers Criteria: Based on pharmacologic class concerns for Nonsteroidal Anti-inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs) in the Beers Criteria, tiaprofenic acid may be a potentially inappropriate medication to be avoided for chronic use in patients 65 years and older (unless alternative agents ineffective and patient can receive concomitant gastroprotective agent) due to increased risk of GI bleeding and peptic ulcer disease in older adults in high-risk category (eg, older than 75 years of age or receiving concomitant oral/parenteral corticosteroids, anticoagulants, or antiplatelet agents). In addition, avoid for short-term scheduled use in combination with oral/parenteral corticosteroids, anticoagulants, or antiplatelet agents unless alternatives are ineffective and patient can receive concomitant gastroprotective agent (Beers Criteria [AGS 2023]).

Tricyclic Antidepressants: May enhance the adverse/toxic effect of Nonsteroidal Anti-Inflammatory Agents. Specifically, the risk of major adverse cardiac events (MACE), hemorrhagic stroke, ischemic stroke, and heart failure may be increased. Tricyclic Antidepressants may enhance the antiplatelet effect of Nonsteroidal Anti-Inflammatory Agents. Risk C: Monitor therapy
Urokinase: Agents with Antiplatelet Properties may enhance the anticoagulant effect of Urokinase. Risk X: Avoid combination
Vancomycin: Nonsteroidal Anti-Inflammatory Agents may increase the serum concentration of Vancomycin. Risk C: Monitor therapy
Verteporfin: Photosensitizing Agents may enhance the photosensitizing effect of Verteporfin. Risk C: Monitor therapy
Vitamin E (Systemic): May enhance the antiplatelet effect of Agents with Antiplatelet Properties. Risk C: Monitor therapy
Vitamin K Antagonists (eg, warfarin): Nonsteroidal Anti-Inflammatory Agents (Nonselective) may enhance the anticoagulant effect of Vitamin K Antagonists. Management: Consider alternatives to this combination when possible. If the combination must be used, monitor coagulation status closely and advise patients to promptly report any evidence of bleeding or bruising. Risk D: Consider therapy modification
Zanubrutinib: May enhance the antiplatelet effect of Agents with Antiplatelet Properties. Risk C: Monitor therapy
Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs may delay or prevent rupture of ovarian follicles. This may be associated with infertility that is reversible upon discontinuation of the medication. Consider discontinuing use in patients having difficulty conceiving or those undergoing investigation of fertility (Matyas 2015; Micu 2011).
Tiaprofenic acid crosses the human placenta.
The use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) close to conception may be associated with an increased risk of miscarriage due to cyclooxygenase-2 inhibition interfering with implantation (Bermas 2014; Bloor 2013).
Birth defects have been observed following in utero NSAID exposure in some studies; however, data are conflicting (Bloor 2013). Nonteratogenic effects, including prenatal constriction of the ductus arteriosus, persistent pulmonary hypertension of the newborn, oligohydramnios, necrotizing enterocolitis, renal dysfunction or failure, and intracranial hemorrhage have been observed in the fetus/neonate following in utero NSAID exposure (Bermas 2014; Bloor 2013). Maternal NSAID use may cause fetal renal dysfunction leading to oligohydramnios. Although rare, this may occur as early as 20 weeks' gestation and is more likely to occur with prolonged maternal use. Oligohydramnios may be reversible following discontinuation of the NSAID (Dathe 2019; FDA 2020). In addition, nonclosure of the ductus arteriosus postnatally may occur and be resistant to medical management (Bermas 2014; Bloor 2013).
Maternal use of NSAIDs should be avoided beginning at 20 weeks' gestation. If NSAID use is necessary between 20 and 30 weeks' gestation, limit use to the lowest effective dose and shortest duration possible; consider ultrasound monitoring of amniotic fluid if treatment extends beyond 48 hours and discontinue the NSAID if oligohydramnios is found (FDA 2020). Use of tiaprofenic acid is contraindicated during the third trimester of pregnancy.
It is not known if tiaprofenic acid is present in breast milk.
Due to the potential for serious adverse reactions in a breastfed infant, breastfeeding is contraindicated by the manufacturer.
CBC; occult blood loss; periodic LFTs; renal function (urine output, BUN, creatinine); electrolytes; BP; monitor response (pain, range of motion, grip strength, mobility, ADL function), inflammation; observe for weight gain, edema; observe for bleeding, bruising; evaluate gastrointestinal effects (abdominal pain, bleeding, dyspepsia); mental confusion, disorientation; with long-term therapy, periodic ophthalmic exams.
Reversibly inhibits cyclooxygenase-1 and 2 (COX-1 and 2) enzymes, which results in decreased formation of prostaglandin precursors; has antipyretic, analgesic, and anti-inflammatory properties
Other proposed mechanisms not fully elucidated (and possibly contributing to the anti-inflammatory effect to varying degrees), include inhibiting chemotaxis, altering lymphocyte activity, inhibiting neutrophil aggregation/activation, and decreasing proinflammatory cytokine levels.
