{"adverse_reactions":["ADVERSE REACTIONS Side effects of Orphenadrine Citrate, Aspirin, and Caffeine Tablets are those seen with aspirin and caffeine or those usually associated with mild anticholinergic agents. These may include tachycardia, palpitation, urinary hesitancy or retention, dry mouth, blurred vision, dilation of the pupil, increased intraocular tension, weakness, nausea, vomiting, headache, dizziness, constipation, drowsiness, and rarely, urticaria and other dermatoses. Infrequently, an elderly patient may experience some degree of confusion. Mild central excitation and occasional hallucinations may be observed. These mild side effects can usually be eliminated by reduction in dosage. One case of aplastic anemia associated with the use of Orphenadrine Citrate, Aspirin, and Caffeine Tablets has been reported. No causal relationship has been established. Rare G.I. hemorrhage due to aspirin content may be associated with the administration of Orphenadrine Citrate, Aspirin, and Caffeine Tablets. Some patients may experience transient episodes of lightheadedness, dizziness or syncope."],"clinical_pharmacology":["CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY Orphenadrine citrate is a centrally acting (brain stem) compound which in animals selectively blocks facilitatory functions of the reticular formulation. Orphenadrine does not produce myoneural block, nor does it affect crossed extensor reflexes. Orphenadrine prevents nicotine-induced convulsions but not those produced by strychnine. Chronic administration of Orphenadrine Citrate, Aspirin, and Caffeine to dogs and rats has revealed no drug-related toxicity. No blood or urine changes were observed, nor were there any macroscopic or microscopic pathological changes detected. Extensive experience with combinations containing aspirin and caffeine has established them as safe agents. The addition of orphenadrine citrate does not alter the toxicity of aspirin and caffeine. The mode of therapeutic action of orphenadrine has not been clearly identified, but may be related to its analgesic properties. Orphenadrine citrate also possesses anticholinergic actions."],"contraindications":["CONTRAINDICATIONS Because of the mild anti-cholinergic effect of orphenadrine, Orphenadrine Citrate, Aspirin, and Caffeine Tablets should not be used in patients with glaucoma, pyloric or duodenal obstruction, achalasia, prostatic hypertrophy, or obstructions at the bladder neck. Orphenadrine Citrate, Aspirin, and Caffeine Tablets are also contraindicated in patients with myasthenia gravis and in patients known to be sensitive to aspirin or caffeine. The drug is contraindicated in patients who have demonstrated a previous hypersensitivity to the drug."],"description":["DESCRIPTION Each tablet, for oral administration, contains Orphenadrine Citrate USP, 25 mg or 50 mg, Aspirin USP, 385 mg or 770 mg, Caffeine USP, 30 mg or 60 mg.

Some studies suggest possible association between the development of Reye’s Syndrome and the use of medicines containing salicylate or aspirin. Orphenadrine Citrate, Aspirin, and Caffeine Tablets contain aspirin and therefore are not recommended for use in patients with chicken pox, influenza, or flu symptoms. Orphenadrine Citrate, Aspirin, and Caffeine Tablets may impair the ability of the patient to engage in potentially hazardous activities such as operating machinery or driving a motor vehicle: ambulatory patients should therefore be cautioned accordingly. Aspirin should be used with extreme caution in the presence of peptic ulcers and coagulation abnormalities. Usage in Pregnancy Since safety of the use of this preparation in pregnancy, during lactation, or in the child-bearing age has not been established, use of the drug in such patients requires that the potential benefits of the drug be weighed against its possible hazard to the mother and child.
