Description
Paracytolgin Pharmacodynamics
A combined preparation, the action of which is due to its constituent components. It has a directed action against pain (analgesic), antipyretic and anti-inflammatory effects.
Ibuprofen and paracetamol differ in mechanism and site of action. As a result of their mutually reinforcing action, a more pronounced decrease in pain sensitivity and increased antipyretic effect is achieved than separately.
Ibuprofen is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that has analgesic, anti-inflammatory, antipyretic effects. Inhibiting cyclooxygenase (COX) 1 and 2, disrupts metabolism of arachidonic acid, reduces the number of prostaglandins (mediators of pain, inflammation and hyperthermia), both in the focus of inflammation and in healthy tissues, inhibits the exudative and proliferative phases of inflammation. Ibuprofen inhibits migration of leukocytes to the center of inflammation.
Analgesic effect of ibuprofen is provided by its inhibitory effect at the peripheral level. The antipyretic effect of ibuprofen is associated with central inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis in the hypothalamus.
Paracetamol is an analgesic non-narcotic agent and has analgesic, antipyretic and mild anti-inflammatory effects. Paracetamol indiscriminately blocks COX, mainly in the central nervous system, has little effect on water-salt metabolism and the mucosa of the gastrointestinal tract (GIT). It has analgesic and antipyretic effects. Paracetamol can also stimulate the activity of descending serotonin pathways, which leads to knocking out the transmission of the pain impulse in the spinal cord. At the peripheral level, paracetamol has a weak effect on COX-1 and COX-2.
It relieves arthralgia at rest and during movement, reduces morning stiffness and swelling of joints, helps to increase range of motion.
