Naloxegol oxalate is a medication used to treat opioid-induced constipation (OIC) in adults with chronic non-cancer pain. It is a peripherally-selective opioid antagonist that works by blocking the opioid receptors in the gut without affecting the central nervous system.

Naloxegol oxalate works by binding to opioid receptors in the gastrointestinal tract, which helps to counteract the constipating effects of opioid medications. Its PEGylated structure prevents it from crossing the blood-brain barrier, thus avoiding interference with pain relief provided by opioids.

Naloxegol should be taken on an empty stomach, at least 1 hour before or 2 hours after the first meal of the day. If unable to swallow the tablet whole, it can be crushed and mixed with water. For those with a nasogastric tube, specific instructions must be followed.

Common side effects include nausea, vomiting, stomach pain, diarrhea, gas, and headache. Some patients may also experience symptoms of opioid withdrawal such as anxiety, sweating, and irritability.

Naloxegol should not be used by individuals with:
● Known or suspected gastrointestinal obstruction
● Allergies to naloxegol
● Moderate to severe liver or kidney disease without doctor's supervision

There are no adequate studies to determine the risk to infants when naloxegol is used during pregnancy or breastfeeding. It should be used only if the potential benefit justifies the potential risk to the infant.

Store naloxegol at room temperature away from moisture and heat. Keep it out of reach of children and dispose of any unused medication properly.

Naloxegol can interact with several other medications. Notable interactions include:
● Certain antibiotics
● Antifungal medications
● Heart medications
● Antiviral medications for hepatitis C or HIV
● Grapefruit products should also be avoided as they can lead to unwanted side effects.
