Suspension of Sales of Nimesulide in Singapore : HSA's Update

Following the suspension of the local sales of oral preparations containing nimesulide in June 2007, HSA has completed the review of available data on nimesulide. Due to the availability of other treatment options for the conditions that nimesulide is prescribed for, and including the fact that the risk of serious liver-related adverse reactions, although rare, cannot be effectively prevented in the local context, HSA has concluded that the risks of nimesulide outweigh its risks. Hence, the sales of oral nimesulide products will remain suspended and the relevant product licenes will not be renewed upon expiry.
