A fixed-dose combination of oxycodone, an opioid analgesic, and ibuprofen, a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), used for the management of moderate to severe acute pain where treatment with both opioids and NSAIDs is appropriate. Typically approved in specific countries for short-term use when other analgesic treatments are insufficient.
Estimated pharmacokinetic parameters for a typical healthy adult following oral administration of a single dose combination tablet; no original published population PK study exists for the fixed combination, so values are based on published single-compound PK data combined and adjusted for usual fixed-dose tablet ratios (e.g., 5 mg oxycodone/400 mg ibuprofen).
