The use of etoricoxib, which is the active substance in Roticox, may reduce blood flow to the kidneys and impair kidney function. The highest risk of this is in patients with pre-existing severe renal impairment, decompensated heart failure or cirrhosis. Monitoring of renal function should be considered in these patients.
The manufacturer of the drug also points out that patients taking Roticox may develop proteinuria and an increase in serum creatinine.
The most important thing is that the doctor who writes the prescription has a full picture of the patient's health and is aware that only one kidney is working. It is the doctor who, on the basis of your test results, introduces the drug into the therapy, taking into account all the pros and cons.
In this situation, it is important to monitor the functioning of the kidney by performing regular tests.
