(amlodipine and celecoxib)
tablets
What is the most important information I should know about CONSENSI?
CONSENSI contains celecoxib, a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), and amlodipine, a calcium channel blocker (CCB). NSAIDs can cause serious side effects, including:
  • Increased risk of a heart attack or stroke that can lead to death. This risk may happen early in treatment and may increase:
    • with increasing doses of NSAIDs
    • with longer use of NSAIDs
Do not take CONSENSI right before or after a heart surgery called a "coronary artery bypass graft" (CABG).
Avoid taking CONSENSI after a recent heart attack, unless your healthcare provider tells you to. You may have an increased risk of another heart attack if you take NSAIDs after a recent heart attack.
  • Increased risk of bleeding, ulcers, and tears (perforation) of the esophagus (tube leading from the mouth to the stomach), stomach, and intestines:
    • anytime during use
    • without warning symptoms
    • that may cause death
The risk of getting an ulcer or bleeding increases with:
  • past history of stomach ulcers, or stomach or intestinal bleeding with use of NSAIDs
  • taking medicines called "corticosteroids", "antiplatelet drugs", "anticoagulants", "selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs)", or "serotonin norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs)"
  • increasing doses of NSAIDs
  • longer use of NSAIDs
  • smoking
  • drinking alcohol
  • older age
  • poor health
  • advanced liver disease
  • bleeding problems
You should not take other medicines that contain NSAIDs or salicylates during treatment with CONSENSI because of increased risk of stomach problems. Taking other medicines that contain NSAIDs or salicylates during treatment with CONSENSI will not provide increased relief of symptoms of osteoarthritis.
CONSENSI should only be used:
  • exactly as prescribed
  • at the lowest dose possible for your treatment
  • for the shortest time needed
