What is Arthrotec?
Arthrotec is an FDA (U.S. Food and Drug Administration) approved medication distributed by Searle LLC, a Division of Pfizer Inc. Arthrotec is used to treat the symptoms of osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis in patients at high risk of developing gastric and intestinal ulcers while taking NSAIDs. Arthrotec is a combination of diclofenac sodium, a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) and misoprostol, a gastrointestinal mucosal protective prostaglandin analog.
What doses of Arthrotec are available?
Arthrotec is available in tablet form, as Arthrotec 50, or Arthrotec 75 in the following doses: 50 mg/200 mcg and 75 mg/200 mcg.
Take Arthrotec by mouth with a full glass of water. Remain standing or seated upright and do not lie down for at least 10 minutes after taking this medication. Swallow Arthrotec tablets whole. Do not crush, chew, or dissolve the tablets. Take the tablets with food to stop an upset stomach and to reduce diarrhea, and avoid taking antacids containing magnesium while using this medication.
Please read the prescribing information and medication guide and always speak with a healthcare professional about any changes to your dose so they can monitor and evaluate your condition.
