BACKGROUND: Etoricoxib is a novel cyclooxygenase 2 selective inhibitor. Until now, there has not been information in the literature about its tolerability in patients with a history of hypersensitivity reactions to nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs).
OBJECTIVE: To determine the short-term tolerability of etoricoxib in patients with a history of cutaneous adverse reactions to NSAIDs.
METHODS: Single-blind challenge testing was performed on 2 different days using placebo (talc) and etoricoxib. On the first day, 2 placebo capsules were administered 1 hour apart; 7 days later, each patient received divided doses of the total therapeutic dose of 90 mg of etoricoxib: 22.5 mg initially and 67.5 mg 1 hour later if no reactive symptoms were noted.
RESULTS: Of 141 patients who underwent challenge testing with etoricoxib, only 2 (1.4%) had positive test results; both developed wheals on the extremities. These 2 patients were treated with chlorpheniramine maleate (10 mg intravenously), and the symptoms completely resolved within 2 hours. None of the patients experienced adverse reactions to the placebo challenge.
CONCLUSION: The low rate of adverse reactions to etoricoxib, tested by oral challenge, suggests that patients with previous cutaneous hypersensitivity reactions to NSAIDs (primarily urticaria and angioedema) may tolerate this drug.
