BACKGROUND: The safety reports arising currently on nimesulide are divulging the jeopardy of skin and subcutaneous tissue disorders (SSTDs).
RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: The global individual case safety reports on nimesulide-induced SSTDs available at VigiBase® were analyzed up to 31 March 2023. Disproportionality analyses viz. Proportional Reporting Ratio (PRR), Reporting Odds Ratio (ROR), and Information Component (IC) were performed to identify the quantitative signals.
RESULTS: Out of 33,983,649 de-duplicated cases available in the VigiBase®, 1,664,134 (4.9%) were in pediatrics below 12 years of age. Among these, cases attributed to nimesulide were 251, of which 126 (50.2%) were on SSTDs. Among all the SSTDs reported for nimesulide, the serious reactions like urticaria [PRR = 2.3; lower bound (LB) ROR = 1.7; IC025 = 0.6], Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS) [PRR = 28.3; LB ROR = 18.2; IC025 = 3.2], angioedema [PRR = 7.5; LB ROR = 4.5; IC025 = 1.7], and toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN) [PRR = 27.4; LB ROR = 11.5; IC025 = 1.5] were identified as potential signals. In comparison with non-SSTDs, SSTDs reported for nimesulide were significantly higher among children (2-11 years, 90.5%), from India (38.9%), and by the physician (60.3%).
CONCLUSIONS: Identifying the giant quantitate association between nimesulide and serious & life-threatening reactions like SJS and TEN, precautionary measures need to be taken by the regulatory authorities to prevent nimesulide-induced SSTDs among the pediatric population.
