What is Limbrel?

Limbrel is a brand-name prescription drug for managing the swelling due to osteoarthritis, a condition in which cartilage in the joints wears away and bones in the joints rub together, causing inflammation (swelling), stiffness, and pain in the joint.

The active ingredient in Limbrel, flavocoxid, inhibits the production of fats in the body that stimulate cells in the joint to release histamines. Histamines are chemicals that cause joint swelling that directly result in pain and stiffness. These fats also convert into other substances that can degrade cartilage further.

Limbrel was recalled by the Food and Drug Administration in 2017 due to a high incidence among Limbrel patients of liver injury as well as an unacceptably high incidence of a rare allergic reaction in which the lungs swell.

What are the side effects of Limbrel?

Limbrel can cause severe side effects such as liver damage and a very rare allergic reaction called hypersensitivity pneumonitis, a condition in which the air spaces in the lung swell up and cause severe breathing problems. For this reason, Limbrel is no longer available in the United States after a mandatory recall by the FDA in 2017.

Other common side effects of Limbrel include upset stomach, nausea, gas, and stomach pain.
