Pharmacokinetics

Paracetamol

Paracetamol is rapidly and completely absorbed in the small intestine. C max in the blood is observed 15-20 minutes after ingestion. Systemic bioavailability is determined by presystemic metabolism and, depending on the dose, ranges from 70% to 90%. Paracetamol is rapidly spread over all tissues of the body and has T 1/2 for approximately 2 hours. It is metabolized in the liver and excreted in the urine as glucuronides and sulfate compounds (>, 80%).

Guaifenesin

Quickly absorbed after ingestion. The half-life of 1 h. Metabolized in the liver by oxidation to (2 methoxy-phenoxy) lactic acid, which is excreted through the lungs (sputum) and by the kidneys as inactive metabolites.

Phenylephrine

Phenylephrine is rapidly absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract. The level of primary metabolism is quite high (~ 60%), so the oral use of phenylephrine reduces its bioavailability (~ 40%). C max observed after 1-2 hours, and T 1/2 varies from 2 to 3 hours. Excreted in the urine in the form of sulfate compounds. Oral administration of phenylephrine as a decongestant should be carried out at intervals of 4 to 6 hours.

Clinical pharmacology

Combined drug, the effect of which is due to the composition of its components.

Paracetamol

It has analgesic and antipyretic effect, these effects are due to inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis in the Central nervous system.

Guaifenesin

It has a mucolytic effect, facilitates the removal of phlegm from the bronchi and promotes the transition of unproductive cough into productive.

Phenylephrine

Postsynaptic agonist of alpha-adrenoceptors with low cardioselective affinity for beta - receptors. Decongestant, narrows blood vessels, eliminates swelling and hyperemia of the nasal mucosa.

Overdose: 

Paracetamol

Symptoms: an overdose of paracetamol in the first 24 hours-pale, nausea and vomiting

Liver damage may occur in the period from 12 to 48 hours after the drug.

Liver damage is possible in adults who have taken 10 or more grams of paracetamol. The intake of 5 or more grams of acetaminophen can cause liver damage if you have risk factors: prolonged treatment with carbamazepine , phenobarbital , phenytoin , primidon , rifampicin or other drugs that induce liver enzymes, alcohol abuse, lack of glutamine (e.g., poor diet), cystic fibrosis , HIV infection, starvation, cachexia.

Symptoms may be only partially manifested in the form of nausea or vomiting, and may not reflect the actual degree of overdose or the risk of organ damage.

In severe overdose-liver failure with progressive encephalopathy, coma, death, acute renal failure with tubular necrosis (including in the absence of severe liver damage), arrhythmia, pancreatitis .

Treatment: in the case of an overdose of paracetamol, despite the absence of primary symptoms of overdose, it is necessary to seek qualified help in medical institutions. To prevent the serious consequences of overdose, it is necessary to take the necessary measures in a timely manner.

Guaifenesin

Symptoms: a small and moderate overdose can cause dizziness, gastrointestinal disorder (nausea, vomiting and diarrhea).

Very high overdose can cause an excited state, confusion and respiratory depression.

Treatment: gastric lavage, activated charcoal, acetylcysteine (paracetamol antidote), symptomatic therapy.

Phenylephrine

Symptoms: irritability, headache, increased blood pressure . In case of the above symptoms of overdose, you should contact your doctor.

Treatment: the introduction of aid donors SH-groups and precursor to the synthesis of glutathione - methionine for 8 - 9 hours after the overdose and acetylcysteine is within 8 hours. The need for additional therapeutic measures (further administration of methionine, intravenous administration of acetylcysteine) is determined depending on the concentration of paracetamol in the blood, as well as the time elapsed after its reception.

Precautionary measures

Avoid concomitant use of the drug with other paracetamol-containing drugs, as this may cause an overdose of paracetamol.

When using the drug for more than 5 days, peripheral blood parameters and the functional state of the liver should be monitored.

The drug distorts the results of laboratory tests that evaluate the concentration of glucose and uric acid in plasma .

It is necessary to take into account patients, adhering to the sodium diet: the drug contains sodium.

Contains aspartame (E 951), a source of phenylalanine. May be toxic to patients with phenylketonuria.

The drug should not be combined with ethanol .

Application in violation of liver function

Use in children

Contraindicated in children under 12 years.

Impact on the ability to drive and operate machinery

When driving and engaging in other potentially hazardous activities, it is important to take into account that the drug may cause side effects such as dizziness
