Hypersensitivity to tenoxicam or any component of the formulation; patients who have experienced asthma, urticaria, rhinitis or other allergic-type reactions after taking aspirin or other NSAIDs; active peptic ulcer or active GI inflammatory diseases; preoperative/preanesthesia use in the elderly or in patients at increased risk of renal failure or increased risk of bleeding; third trimester of pregnancy.
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. Do not use in patients who experience bronchospasm, asthma, rhinitis, or urticaria with nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) or aspirin therapy.
• Cardiovascular events: NSAIDs cause an increased risk of serious (and potentially fatal) adverse cardiovascular thrombotic events, including myocardial infarction (MI) and stroke. Risk may occur early during treatment and may increase with duration of use. Relative risk appears to be similar in those with and without known cardiovascular disease or risk factors for cardiovascular disease; however, absolute incidence of serious cardiovascular thrombotic events (which may occur early during treatment) was higher in patients with known cardiovascular disease or risk factors and in those receiving higher doses. Use caution in patients with hypertension or conditions predisposing to fluid retention. Avoid use in heart failure (FDA 2015). Use the lowest effective dose for the shortest duration of time, consistent with individual patient goals, to reduce risk of cardiovascular events; alternate therapies should be considered for patients at high risk.
• CNS effects: NSAIDs may cause drowsiness, dizziness, blurred vision, and other neurologic effects that may impair physical or mental abilities; patients must be cautioned about performing tasks that require mental alertness (eg, operating machinery or driving).
• 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 an increased risk of serious GI inflammation, ulceration, bleeding, and perforation (may be fatal); instruct patients to contact health care provider if signs and symptoms of peptic ulceration or GI bleeding occur. These events may occur at any time during therapy and without warning. Use is contraindicated in patients with active peptic ulcer or active GI inflammatory disease. Use caution in patients with a history of GI disease (bleeding or ulcers, melena, ulcerative colitis, Crohn disease), concurrent therapy with aspirin, anticoagulants and/or corticosteroids, smoking, use of alcohol, the 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. When used concomitantly with aspirin, a substantial increase in the risk of GI complications (eg, ulcer) occurs; concomitant gastroprotective therapy (eg, proton pump inhibitors) 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; closely monitor patients with any abnormal liver function test. Rare (sometimes fatal) severe reactions (eg, hepatitis, jaundice, hepatic failure) have occurred with NSAID use. Discontinue immediately if signs or symptoms of hepatic disease develop or if systemic manifestations occur.
• Hyperkalemia: NSAID use may increase the risk of hyperkalemia, particularly in the elderly, diabetics, renal disease, and with concomitant use of other agents capable of inducing hyperkalemia (eg, angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors, beta-blockers, some diuretics). Monitor potassium closely.
• Ophthalmic events: Blurred/diminished vision has been reported; discontinue therapy and refer for ophthalmologic evaluation if symptoms occur.
• 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, hepatic impairment, those taking diuretics and ACE inhibitors, and patients ≥65 years of age are at greater risk of renal toxicity. Rehydrate patient before starting therapy. Long-term NSAID use may result in renal papillary necrosis and other renal injury.
• Skin reactions: NSAIDs may cause potentially fatal serious skin adverse events, including erythema multiforme, exfoliative dermatitis, Stevens-Johnson syndrome, and toxic epidermal necrolysis; may occur without warning; discontinue use at first sign of skin rash (or any other hypersensitivity).
Disease-related concerns:
• Aseptic meningitis: NSAIDs may increase risk of aseptic meningitis; use caution in patients with hematopoietic disorders, systemic lupus erythematosus, or mixed connective tissue disease (Hoppmann 1991).
• Asthma: Contraindicated in patients with aspirin-sensitive asthma; severe bronchospasm may occur. Use caution in patients with other forms of asthma.
• Coronary artery bypass graft surgery: Risk of MI and stroke may be increased with NSAID use following CABG surgery.
• Hepatic impairment: Use with caution in patients with hepatic impairment; patients with advanced hepatic disease are at an increased risk of GI bleeding with NSAIDs.
• Renal impairment: Avoid NSAID use in patients with advanced renal disease; discontinue use with persistent or worsening abnormal renal function tests.
Special populations:
• Older adult/debilitated patients: Use with caution in older adult/debilitated patients.
Other warnings/precautions:
• Surgical/dental procedures: Some experts recommend withholding NSAID therapy for at least ~5 half-lives prior to surgical or dental procedures (Douketis 2008).

Beers Criteria: Based on pharmacologic class concerns for Nonsteroidal Anti-inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs) in the Beers Criteria, tenoxicam may be a potentially inappropriate medication to be avoided in patients 65 years and older (unless alternative agents are ineffective and patient can receive concomitant gastroprotective agent) due to increased risk of GI bleeding and peptic ulcer disease in older adults in a 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]).

The chronic use of NSAIDs in patients who can become pregnant may be associated with infertility that is reversible upon discontinuation of the medication (Micu 2011).
The use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) close to conception may possibly 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). In addition, nonclosure of the ductus arteriosus postnatally may occur and be resistant to medical management (Bermas 2014; Bloor 2013).
[Canadian Boxed Warning]: Caution should be exercised in prescribing tenoxicam during the first and second trimesters of pregnancy. Use of NSAIDs at ~20 weeks' gestation or later may cause fetal renal dysfunction leading to oligohydramnios and neonatal renal impairment or failure. Tenoxicam is contraindicated for use during the third trimester because of risk of premature closure of the ductus arteriosus and uterine inertia (prolonged parturition ).
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).
Breastfeeding is not recommended by manufacturer.
CBC, serum electrolytes, kidney and liver function tests (periodically); occult blood loss; BP; ophthalmic exams with prolonged therapy; observe for bleeding, bruising; evaluate GI effects (abdominal pain, bleeding, dyspepsia).
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 for NSAIDs 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.
