KETOPROFEN-ORAL ENTERIC OR SUSTAINED ACTION TABLET (cont.)

NOTES: In arthritis, it may take up to four weeks before the full effects of this medicine are noted. For best results, this must be taken regularly, as directed by your doctor.

MISSED DOSE: If you miss a dose of the enteric coated tablet, take it as soon as remembered. Do not take it if it is almost time for the next dose. Instead, skip the missed dose and resume your usual dosing schedule. If you take the sustained-release tablet once a day and remember the missed dose within 8 hours, take it right away and resume your usual dosing schedule. Do not "double-up" the doses to catch up.

STORAGE: Store at room temperature away from sunlight and moisture.
