Lumiracoxib
Identification
- Generic Name
- Lumiracoxib
- DrugBank Accession Number
- DB01283
- Background
Lumiracoxib is a COX-2 selective non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID). On August 11, 2007, Australia's Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA, the Australian equivalent of the FDA) cancelled the registration of lumiracoxib in Australia due to concerns that it may cause liver failure. New Zealand and Canada have also followed suit in recalling the drug.

- Pharmacodynamics
Lumiracoxib has a different structure from the standard COX-2 inhibitors (e.g. celecoxib). It more closely resembles the structure of diclofenac (one chlorine substituted by fluorine, the phenylacetic acid has another methyl group in meta position), making it a member of the arylalkanoic acid family of NSAIDs. It binds to a different site on the COX-2 receptor than the standard COX-2 inhibitors. It displays extremely high COX-2 selectivity.
- Mechanism of action
The mechanism of action of lumiracoxib is due to inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis via inhibition of cyclooygenase-2 (COX-2). Lumiracoxib does not inhibit COX-1 at therapeutic concentrations.

- Toxicity
Single oral doses in mice and rats resulted in mortality and/or moribundity at doses of 600 mg/kg and 500 mg/kg, respectively. Single intraperitoneal doses in mice and rats results in mortality/moribundity at 750 mg/kg and 1000 mg/kg, respectively. The maximum non-lethal single oral and intraperitoneal dose in mouse was 300 mg/kg and 250 mg/kg, respectively. In the rat it was 150 mg/kg and 250 mg/kg, respectively.

Drug Interaction Integrate drug-drug
interactions in your softwareAbacavir Lumiracoxib may decrease the excretion rate of Abacavir which could result in a higher serum level. Abatacept The metabolism of Lumiracoxib can be increased when combined with Abatacept. Abciximab The risk or severity of bleeding and hemorrhage can be increased when Lumiracoxib is combined with Abciximab. Abrocitinib The metabolism of Abrocitinib can be decreased when combined with Lumiracoxib. Acebutolol Lumiracoxib may decrease the antihypertensive activities of Acebutolol. - Food Interactions
- Take with or without food. The absorption is unaffected by food.
