`VIMOVO (naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium)
`®
`Tablets
`The Smarter Naproxen Due to Added Gastroprotection
`VIMOVO (naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium) delayed-release tablets 375 mg/20 mg
`and 500 mg/20 mg are a proprietary, single-tablet combination of the nonsteroidal anti-
`inflammatory drug (NSAID) naproxen and immediate-release esomeprazole, a stomach acid
`–reducing proton pump inhibitor (PPI). Naproxen has proven anti-inflammatory and analgesic
`properties, and esomeprazole magnesium reduces the stomach acid–secretion that can
`cause gastric ulceration. With the combination of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium
`into a single product, VIMOVO decreases the risk of gastric gastrointestinal (GI) ulcers while
`reducing pain and inflammation from osteoarthritis (OA), rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and
`ankylosing spondylitis.

`
`Indications and Usage
`VIMOVO is approved to relieve the signs and symptoms of osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis,
`and ankylosing spondylitis and to decrease the risk of stomach (gastric) ulcers in patients at
`risk of developing stomach ulcers from treatment with NSAIDs. VIMOVO is not recommended
`as a starting treatment for relief of acute pain. Controlled studies do not extend beyond 6
`months.
`
`Important Safety Information
`• Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), including naproxen, a
`component of VIMOVO, may increase the chance of a heart attack or stroke,
`which can be fatal. This chance increases with longer use and in people who
`have heart disease or risk factors for heart disease.
`• VIMOVO should not be used before or after a type of heart surgery called
`coronary artery bypass graft (CABG).
`• NSAID-containing medications like VIMOVO may increase the chance of
`stomach and intestinal problems, such as bleeding or an ulcer. These problems
`can happen without warning and can lead to death. Older patients may have a
`greater chance of developing these problems.
`
`VIMOVO is not right for everyone, including patients who have had an asthma attack, hives,
`or other allergic reaction with aspirin or any other NSAID medicine, patients who are allergic
`to any of the ingredients in VIMOVO, or women in late stages of pregnancy.
`
`Serious allergic reactions, including skin reactions, can occur without warning and can be life-
`threatening; discontinue use of VIMOVO at the first appearance of a skin rash, or if you
`develop sudden wheezing; swelling of the lips, tongue or throat; fainting; or problems
`swallowing.
