Other General Warnings

• You have a heart condition, including heart failure or high blood pressure. Anti-inflammatory medicines can raise blood pressure and the risk of heart attack and stroke, particularly at higher doses and with longer use.
• You are older and take a diuretic, or have a kidney disorder, as the risk of kidney failure rises. Your doctor may order kidney function tests.
• You have, or have had, bleeding or ulcers in the stomach or intestine, Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis, or you notice black, tarry stools.
• You have asthma, as this medicine can make it worse.
• You have systemic lupus erythematosus.
