  • active substances: analgin (metamizole sodium) – 300 mg, naproxen – 100 mg, caffeine – 50 mg, phenobarbital – 10 mg, codeine (in the form of codeine or codeine phosphate) – 8 mg;
  • auxiliary components: potato starch, low molecular weight povidone (medical low molecular weight polyvinylpyrrolidone), sodium citrate, magnesium stearate.

Pharmacological properties

Pharmacodynamics

IN composition of Pentalgina-N includes active substances that have analgesic, antispasmodic, antipyretic, anti-inflammatory and sedative effects.

Metamizole sodium is a pyrazolone derivative. It has analgesic and antipyretic effects.

Naproxen, being a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug, has anti-inflammatory, analgesic and antipyretic properties, which are caused by non-selective inhibition of the activity of the cyclooxygenase enzyme, which is responsible for the production of prostaglandins from arachidonic acid.

Caffeine promotes expansion blood vessels skeletal muscle tissue, heart, brain, kidneys, increasing physical and mental performance, reducing fatigue and drowsiness. By increasing the permeability of histohematic barriers and increasing the bioavailability of non-narcotic analgesics, caffeine leads to an increase in their therapeutic effect.

Codeine has the property of stimulating opioid receptors in various departments central nervous system, leading to activation of the antinociceptive system and improved perception of pain at the emotional level.

Phenobarbital and codeine increase the analgesic effect of metamizole sodium and naproxen.

Pharmacokinetics

The active substances of the drug are well absorbed in the gastrointestinal tract.

Some pharmacokinetic characteristics active ingredients Pentalgina-N:

  • metamizole sodium: hydrolyzes in the intestinal wall, forming the active metabolite 4-methyl-amino-antipyrine, which is metabolized, in turn, into 4-formyl-amino-antipyrine and other metabolites. 50–60% of the active metabolite is bound to plasma proteins. The substance is capable of penetrating into breast milk. Metabolites are excreted in the urine;
  • naproxen: bioavailability is 95%, binds to plasma proteins. The half-life (T1/2) ranges from 12 to 15 hours. Excreted primarily by the kidneys in the form of a metabolite (dimethylnaproxen), with bile - in small quantities;
  • caffeine: well absorbed in the intestines. T1/2 is 5 hours (in some cases – up to 10 hours). Excreted mainly in the urine in the form of metabolites, unchanged - approximately 10%;
  • phenobarbital: bioavailability - about 80%, approximately 50% binds to plasma proteins. Has the ability to penetrate well through the placental barrier. Metabolism occurs in the liver with the formation of metabolites, the main of which does not have pharmacological activity. Excreted in urine, including unchanged form, – 20–25%;
  • codeine: slightly bound to plasma proteins. Metabolized in the liver. By demethylation, 10% of the substance is converted to morphine. It is excreted mainly by the kidneys, unchanged – 5–15%.

The combined drug has analgesic, antipyretic and anti-inflammatory effects.

Metamizole sodium is an analgesic-antipyretic, a pyrazolone derivative. Has a pronounced analgesic effect.

Naproxen is an NSAID that has anti-inflammatory, analgesic and antipyretic effects associated with non-selective suppression of COX activity, which regulates the synthesis of prostaglandins.

Caffeine causes dilation of blood vessels in skeletal muscles, brain, heart, and kidneys. Increases mental and physical performance, helps eliminate fatigue and drowsiness. Increases the permeability of histohematic barriers and increases the bioavailability of non-opioid analgesics, thereby enhancing the therapeutic effect.

Codeine stimulates opioid receptors in various parts of the central nervous system, which leads to activation of the antinociceptive system and a change in the emotional perception of pain.

Phenobarbital and codeine increase the analgesic effect of metamizole sodium and naproxen.

Pharmacokinetics

The components of the drug are well absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract.

Metamizole sodium

In the intestinal wall it is hydrolyzed to form the active metabolite, 4-methyl-amino-antipyrine, which in turn is metabolized to 4-formyl-amino-antipyrine and other metabolites. The binding of the active metabolite to proteins is 50-60%. Metabolites are excreted by the kidneys and excreted in breast milk.

Naproxen

Bioavailability is 95%. Binds to blood proteins. T1/2 - 12-15 hours. Excreted in the urine mainly in the form of a metabolite (dimethylnaproxen), in small quantities - in bile.

Well absorbed in the intestines. T 1/2 - 5 hours (sometimes up to 10 hours). It is excreted mainly by the kidneys in the form of metabolites, about 10% - unchanged.

Slightly binds to plasma proteins. It undergoes biotransformation in the liver (10% goes into morphine by demethylation). Excreted by the kidneys (5-15% unchanged).

Phenobarbital

Bioavailability is 80%. Binding to blood plasma proteins - 50%. Penetrates well through the placental barrier. Biotransformed in the liver. The main metabolite has no pharmacological activity. Excreted by the kidneys, incl. 20-25% - unchanged.

Release form

Tablets are white or white with a yellowish or creamy tint, flat-cylindrical, with the abbreviated name of the drug "PENT-N" embossed on one side.

Excipients: potato starch, low molecular weight polyvinylpyrrolidone (povidone), sodium citrate, magnesium stearate.

10 pieces. - contour cellular packaging (1) - cardboard packs.

Dosage

The drug is prescribed 1 tablet. 1-3 times/day. The maximum daily dose is 4 tablets.

The drug should not be taken for more than 5 days as an analgesic and for more than 3 days as an antipyretic without a doctor’s prescription.

Overdose

Symptoms: nausea, vomiting, gastralgia, drowsiness, tachycardia, cardiac arrhythmias, delirium, weakness, respiratory depression.

Treatment: induction of vomiting, gastric lavage through a tube, administration of adsorbents (activated carbon), symptomatic therapy aimed at maintaining vital functions.

Interaction

Concomitant use of the drug with other non-opioid analgesics may lead to increased toxic effects.

Tricyclic antidepressants, oral contraceptives, and allopurinol increase the toxicity of metamizole sodium, which is part of the drug.

Barbiturates, phenylbutazone and other inducers of microsomal liver enzymes weaken the effect of metamizole sodium.

The simultaneous use of metamizole sodium with cyclosporine reduces the level of the latter in the blood.
