1. What Nordimet is and what it is used for

Nordimet contains the active substance methotrexate which works by:

  • reducing inflammation or swelling, and
  • reducing the activity of the immune system (the body’s own defense mechanism). An overactive immune system has been linked to inflammatory diseases.

Nordimet is a medicine used to treat a range of inflammatory diseases:

  • active rheumatoid arthritis in adults. Active rheumatoid arthritis is an inflammatory condition that affects the joints;
  • severe, active juvenile idiopathic arthritis in five or more joints (the condition is therefore called polyarthritic), in patients who have had an inadequate response to nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs);
  • a severe form of treatment resistant psoriasis (also called severe recalcitrant disabling psoriasis) that does not respond adequately to other treatments including phototherapy (light therapy), PUVA (ultraviolet light therapy), and retinoids (group of medicines derived from vitamin A) , as well as in severe psoriasis that also affects the joints (psoriatic arthritis) in adult patients;
  • induction of remission in adults with moderate steroid-dependent Crohn’s disease, in combination with corticosteroids;
  • maintenance of remission of Crohn´s disease in adults who have responded to methotrexate, as monotherapy.

2. What you need to know before you use Nordimet
Do not use Nordimet if:
  • you are allergic to methotrexate or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6)
  • you have severe kidney disease (your doctor will be able to tell you if you have severe kidney disease)
  • you have severe liver disease (your doctor will be able to tell you if you have severe liver disease)
  • you have disorders of the blood-forming system
  • your alcohol consumption is high
  • you have an impaired immune system
  • you have a severe or existing infection, e.g. tuberculosis or HIV
  • you have gastrointestinal ulcers
  • you are pregnant or breast-feeding (see section “Pregnancy, breast-feeding and fertility”)
  • you receive vaccinations with live vaccines at the same time.

Warnings and precautions

Acute bleeding from the lungs in patients with underlying rheumatologic disease has been reported with methotrexate. If you experience symptoms of spitting or coughing up blood you should contact your doctor immediately.

Enlarged lymph nodes (lymphoma) may occur and therapy does then have to be discontinued.

Diarrhoea can be a toxic effect of Nordimet and requires an interruption of therapy. If you suffer from diarrhoea please speak to your doctor.

Certain brain disorders (encephalopathy/leukoencephalopathy) have been reported in cancer patients receiving methotrexate. Such side effects cannot be excluded when methotrexate is used to treat other diseases.

If you, your partner or your caregiver notice new onset or worsening of neurological symptoms including general muscle weakness, disturbance of vision, changes in thinking, memory and orientation leading to confusion and personality changes contact your doctor immediately because these may be symptoms of a very rare, serious brain infection called progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML).

Methotrexate may make your skin more sensitive to sunlight. Avoid intense sun and do not use sun-beds or a sun-lamp without medical advice. To protect your skin from intense sun, wear adequate clothing or use a sunscreen with a high protection factor.

Important warning about the dosing of Nordimet

Methotrexate for the therapy of rheumatic diseases, diseases of the skin and Crohn’s disease must only be used once weekly. Incorrect dosing of methotrexate may lead to serious adverse effects which may be fatal. Please read section 3 of this package leaflet very carefully.

Talk to your doctor before using Nordimet if:

  • you have diabetes mellitus and are being treated with insulin
  • you have inactive, prolonged infections (e.g. tuberculosis, hepatitis B or C, shingles [herpes zoster])
  • you have/had any liver or kidney disease
  • you have problems with lung function
  • you are severely overweight
  • you have abnormal accumulation of liquid in the abdomen or in the cavity between the lungs and chest wall (ascites, pleural effusions)
  • you are dehydrated or suffer from conditions leading to dehydration (e.g. dehydration as a result of vomiting, diarrhoea or inflammation of the mouth and lips)

If you have experienced problems with your skin after radiation therapy (radiation induced dermatitis) or sun-burn, these conditions can reappear when taking Nordimet.

Children, adolescents and elderly

Dose instructions depend on the patient’s body weight.

Use in children under 3 years of age is not recommended due to insufficient experience of using this medicine in this age group.

Children, adolescents and the elderly being treated with Nordimet should be kept under close medical surveillance to identify possible side effects as early as possible.

The dose for elderly patients should be lowered due to age-related reduced liver and kidney function.

Special precautionary measures for treatment with Nordimet

Methotrexate temporarily affects sperm and egg production. Methotrexate can cause miscarriage and severe birth defects. You should avoid having a baby if you are being given methotrexate at the time and for at least 6 months after the end of your treatment with methotrexate if you are a woman. If you are a man you should avoid fathering a child if you are being given methotrexate at the time and for at least 3 months after the end of your treatment.. See also section “Pregnancy, breast-feeding and fertility”.

Skin changes caused by psoriasis can worsen during treatment with Nordimet if exposed to ultraviolet irradiation.

Recommended follow-up examinations and precautions

Even if methotrexate is used in low doses, serious side effects can occur. In order to detect them in time, your doctor must perform monitoring examinations and laboratory tests.

Prior to the start of therapy:

Before you start treatment, your blood will be checked to see if you have enough blood cells. Your blood will also be tested to check your liver function and to find out if you have hepatitis. Furthermore, serum albumin (a protein in the blood), hepatitis (liver infection) status and kidney function will be checked. The doctor may also decide to run other liver tests, some of these may be images of your liver and others may need a small sample of tissue taken from the liver in order to examine it more closely. Your doctor may also check to see if you have tuberculosis and they may X-ray your chest or perform a lung function test.

During the treatment:

Your doctor may perform the following examinations:

  • examination of the oral cavity and the pharynx for changes in the mucous membrane such as inflammation or ulceration
  • blood tests/ blood count with number of blood cells and measurement of serum methotrexate levels
  • blood test to monitor liver function
  • Imaging tests to monitor liver condition
  • small sample of tissue taken from the liver in order to examine it more closely
  • blood test to monitor kidney function
  • respiratory tract monitoring and, if necessary, lung function test

It is very important that you appear for these scheduled examinations.

If the results of any of these tests are conspicuous, your doctor will adjust your treatment accordingly.

Other medicines and Nordimet

Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking, have recently taken or might take any other medicines.

It is especially important to tell your doctor if you are taking:

  • other treatments for rheumatoid arthritis or psoriasis such as leflunomide, sulphasalazine (a medicine that besides arthritis and psoriasis is also used to treat ulcerative colitis), aspirin, phenylbutazone, or amidopyrine
  • cyclosporine (for suppressing the immune system)
  • azathioprine (used to prevent rejection after an organ transplant)
  • retinoids (used to treat psoriasis and other skin disorders)
  • anticonvulsant medicines (used to prevent fits), such as phenytoin, valproate or carbamazepine
  • cancer treatments
  • barbiturates (sleeping injection)
  • tranquillisers
  • oral contraceptives
  • probenecid (used to treat gout)
  • antibiotics (e.g. penicillin, glycopeptides, trimethoprim-sulphamethoxazole, sulfonamides, ciprofloxacin, cefalotin, tetracyclines, chloramphenicol)
  • pyrimethamine (used to prevent and treat malaria)
  • vitamin preparations containing folic acid
  • proton-pump inhibitors (medicines that reduce the production of gastric acid and that are used to treat severe heartburn or ulcers), such as omeprazole or pantoprazole
  • theophylline (used to treat asthma)
  • colestyramine (used to treat high cholesterol, pruritus or diarrhoea)
  • NSAID’s, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (used to treat pain or inflammation)
  • p-aminobenzoic acid (used to treat skin disorders)
  • any vaccination with a live vaccine (must be avoided), such as measles, mumps or yellow fever vaccines
  • metamizole (synonyms novaminsulfon and dipyrone) (medicine against severe pain and/or fever)
  • nitrous oxide (a gas used in general anaesthesia

Nordimet with food, drink and alcohol

During treatment with Nordimet, you must not drink any alcohol and should avoid excessive consumption of coffee, soft drinks containing caffeine and black tea as this may enhance side effects or interfere with the efficacy of Nordimet. Also, make sure you drink plenty of liquids during treatment with Nordimet because dehydration (reduction in body water) can increase the toxicity of Nordimet.

Pregnancy, breast-feeding and fertility

If you are pregnant or breast feeding, think you may be pregnant or are planning to have a baby, ask your doctor for advice before taking this medicine.

Pregnancy

Do not use Nordimet during pregnancy or if you are trying to become pregnant. Methotrexate can cause birth defects, harm unborn babies or cause miscarriages. It is associated with malformations of the skull, face, heart and blood vessels, brain and limbs. Therefore, it is very important that methotrexate is not given to pregnant patients or patients planning to become pregnant. In women of child-bearing age any possibility of pregnancy must be excluded with appropriate measures, e.g. a pregnancy test before starting treatment. You must avoid becoming pregnant whilst taking methotrexate and for at least 6 months after treatment is stopped by using reliable contraception throughout this time (see also section “Warnings and precautions”).

If you do become pregnant during treatment or suspect you might be pregnant, speak to your doctor as soon as possible. You should be offered advice regarding the risk of harmful effects on the child through treatment.

If you wish to become pregnant you should consult your doctor, who may refer you for specialist advice before the planned start of treatment.

Breast-feeding

Do not breast-feed during treatment because methotrexate passes into breast milk. If your doctor considers treatment with methotrexate absolutely necessary during the lactation period, you must stop breast-feeding.

Male fertility

The available evidence does not indicate an increased risk of malformations or miscarriage if the father takes methotrexate less than 30 mg/week. However, a risk cannot be completely excluded. Methotrexate may be genotoxic. This means that the medicine may cause genetic mutation. Methotrexate can affect sperm production with the potential to cause birth defects. Therefore, you should avoid fathering a child or to donate semen whilst taking methotrexate and for at least 3 months after treatment is stopped.

Driving and using machines

Side effects affecting the central nervous system, such as tiredness and dizziness, may occur during treatment with Nordimet. In some cases, the ability to drive vehicles and/or use machines may be impaired. If you feel tired or dizzy, you should not drive or use machines.

Nordimet contains sodium

This medicine contains less than 1 mmol sodium (23 mg) per dose, that is to say essentially “sodium-free”.

3. How to use Nordimet
Important warning about the dose of Nordimet

Use Nordimet only once a week for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, active juvenile idiopathic arthritis, psoriasis, psoriatic arthritis and Crohn’s disease requiring dosing once a week. Using too much of Nordimet may be fatal. Please read section 3 of this leaflet very carefully. If you have any questions, please talk to your doctor or pharmacist before you take this medicine.

Always use this medicine exactly as your doctor has told you. Check with your doctor or pharmacist if you are not sure.

Nordimet is administered once a week only. You and your doctor can decide on a suitable day each week to receive your injection.

Incorrect administration of Nordimet can lead to severe side effects that may be fatal.

The recommended dose is:

Dose in patients with rheumatoid arthritis

The recommended starting dose is 7.5 mg methotrexate once a week.

The doctor may increase the dose if the used dose is not effective but tolerated well. The average weekly dose is 15-20 mg. Generally, a weekly dose of 25 mg should not be exceeded. Once Nordimet starts working, the doctor may reduce the dose gradually to the lowest possible effective maintenance dose.

Generally, improvement of symptoms can be expected after 4-8 weeks of treatment. Symptoms may return if treatment with Nordimet is stopped.

Use in adults with severe forms of psoriasis vulgaris or psoriatic arthritis

Your doctor will give you a single test dose of 5-10 mg, in order to assess possible side effects.

If the test dose is well tolerated, treatment will be continued after a week with a dose of approximately 7.5 mg.

Response to treatment can generally be expected after 2-6 weeks. Depending on the effects of treatment and results of blood and urine tests, the therapy is then continued or stopped.

Dose in adult patients with Crohn’s disease:

Your doctor will start with a weekly dose of 25 mg. Response to treatment can generally be expected after 8-12 weeks. Depending on the effects of treatment in time, your doctor may decide to reduce the dose to 15 mg weekly.

Use in children and adolescents below 16 years with polyarthritic forms of juvenile idiopathicarthritis

The doctor will calculate the dose required from the child’s body surface area (m2), and the dose is expressed as mg/m2.

Use in children under 3 years of age is not recommended due to insufficient experience in this age group.

Method and duration of administration

Nordimet is given as injection under the skin (subcutaneously). It must be injected once weekly and it is recommended to always inject Nordimet on the same day of the week.

At the start of your treatment, Nordimet may be injected by medical staff. However, your doctor may decide that you can learn how to inject Nordimet yourself. You will receive appropriate training for you to do this. Under no circumstances should you attempt to inject yourself, unless you have been trained to do so.

The duration of treatment is determined by the treating physician.

Treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, juvenile idiopathic arthritis, psoriasis vulgaris, psoriatic arthritis and Crohn’s disease with Nordimet is a long-term treatment.

How to give yourself an injection of Nordimet

If you have difficulty handling the pen, ask your doctor or pharmacist. Do not try to inject yourself if you have not been trained on how to do so. If you are not sure what to do, talk to your doctor or nurse immediately.

Before injecting yourself with Nordimet
  • Check the expiry date on the medicine. Do not use if the date has passed.
  • Check the pen is not damaged and the medicine in it is a clear, yellow solution. If not, use another pen.
  • Check your last injection site to see if the last injection caused any redness, change in skin colour, swelling, oozing or is still painful, if so talk to your doctor or nurse.
  • Decide where you are going to inject the medicine. Change the place where you inject each time.

Instructions on injecting yourself with Nordimet

1) Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water.
2) Sit or lie in a relaxed, comfortable position. Make sure you can see the skin area you are going to inject.
3) The pen is pre-filled and ready to use. Visually inspect the pen. You should see a yellow fluid through the viewing window. You may see a small air bubble, this does not affect the injection and will not harm you.
A droplet may appear at the tip of the needle. This is normal.
4) Choose an injection site and clean it with the enclosed alcohol swab. It requires 30-60 seconds to be effective. The skin on the front side abdominal wall and the skin at the front of the thigh are suitable as injection sites.
5) While holding the body of the pen, remove the green protective cap by pulling it smoothly and directly away from the unit. Do not twist or bend.

Once you have taken the cap off, keep the pen in your hand. Do not allow the pen to touch anything else. This is to make sure that the pen is not accidentally activated and that the needle stays clean.

6) Make a fold in the skin by gently pinching the skin of the injection place with your forefinger and thumb. Make sure you hold the skin fold throughout the injection.
7) Move the pen towards the skin fold (site of injection) with the needle shield pointing directly at the site of injection. Place the yellow needle shield against the area of injection so that the entire rim of the needle shield is touching the skin.

8) Apply downward pressure on the pen on to your skin until you hear and feel a “click”.

This activates the pen and the solution will inject automatically into the skin.

9) The injection lasts for a maximum of 10 seconds. You will feel and hear a second “click” once the injection is completed.

10) Wait another 2-3 seconds before removing the pen from your skin. The safety shield on the pen is now locked to prevent any needlestick injuries. You can now let go of the skin fold.

11) Visually inspect the pen through the viewing window. You should see green plastic. This means that all the fluid has been injected. Discard the used pen into the sharps bin provided. Close the container lid tightly and place the container out of reach of children. If you accidently get methotrexate on the surface of the skin or soft tissues you must rinse with plenty of water.

If you use more Nordimet than you should

Follow the dose recommendations of your treating doctor. Do not change the dose without your doctor’s recommendation.

If you suspect that you have used too much Nordimet, tell your doctor or contact the nearest hospital immediately. Take your medicine package and this leaflet with you if you go to a doctor or hospital.

An overdose of methotrexate can lead to severe toxic reactions. Overdose symptoms may include easy bruising or bleeding, unusual weakness, mouth sores, nausea, vomiting, black or bloody stools, coughing up blood or vomit that looks like coffee grounds, and decreased urinating. See also section 4.

If you forget to use Nordimet

Do not take a double dose to make up for a forgotten dose, but continue taking the prescribed dose as normal. Ask your doctor for advice.

If you stop taking Nordimet

You should not interrupt or discontinue Nordimet treatment before discussing with your doctor. If you suspect that you are experiencing side effects, contact your doctor immediately for advice.

If you have any further questions on the use of this medicine, ask your doctor or pharmacist.
