ATX: & nbsp

Acetylsalicylic acid in combination with psycholeptics

Pharmacodynamics:

Combined drug.

Acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) has antipyretic and anti-inflammatory effect, relieves pain, especially caused by the inflammatory process, and also inhibits thrombus formation, improves microcirculation in the inflammatory focus.

Caffeine increases the excitability of spinal cord reflex, excites the respiratory and vasomotor centers, dilates blood vessels in skeletal muscle, brain, heart, kidneys, reducing platelet aggregation; reduces drowsiness, a feeling of fatigue, increases mental and physical performance. In this combination caffeine in a small dose practically does not have a stimulating effect on the central nervous system, it increases the tone of the vessels of the brain and promotes the acceleration of blood flow.

Paracetamol has analgeziruyuschim, antipyretic and weak anti-inflammatory effect, which is due to its influence on the center of thermoregulation in the hypothalamus and a weak ability to inhibit the synthesis of prostaglandins in peripheral tissues.

Pharmacokinetics:

ASA: Absorption is complete upon ingestion. During absorption, it undergoes presystemic elimination in the intestinal wall and systemic in the liver (deacetylated). The resorbed part is rapidly hydrolyzed by cholinesterases and albumin esterase, therefore the elimination half-life is no more than 15-20 min.In the body it circulates (75-90% in association with albumin) and is distributed in tissues as an anion of salicylic acid. Time to reach a maximum concentration of 2 hours Metabolized mainly in the liver with the formation of 4 metabolites, found in many tissues and urine. It is excreted by active secretion in the renal tubules in the form of salicylate (60%) and its metabolites. Removal of unchanged salicylate depends on the pH of the urine (with alkalinization of urine ionization of salicylates increases, their reabsorption worsens and the excretion increases significantly). The rate of excretion depends on the dose: when taking small doses, the half-life period is 2-3 hours, with an increase in the dose may increase to 15-30 hours. In newborns, the elimination of salicylates is much slower than in adults.

Paracetamol: adsorption is high, the maximum concentration is reached after 0.5-2 hours and is 5-20 μg / ml, the connection with plasma proteins is 15%. Penetrates through blood-brain barrier. Less than 1% of the accepted dose of breastfeeding mothers penetrates into breast milk. The therapeutically effective concentration of paracetamol in plasma is achieved with a dose of 10-15 mg / kg.Metabolised in the liver (90-95%): 80% enters the conjugation reaction with glucuronic acid and sulfates with the formation of inactive metabolites; 17% undergoes hydroxylation with the formation of 8 active metabolites, which are conjugated with glutathione with the formation of already inactive metabolites. With a lack of glutathione, these metabolites can block the enzyme systems of hepatocytes and cause their necrosis. The isoenzyme CUR2E1 also participates in the metabolism. The half-life is 1-4 hours. It is excreted by the kidneys in the form of metabolites, mainly in the form of conjugates. Only 3% are displayed unchanged. In elderly patients, the clearance of the drug decreases and the half-life increases.

Caffeine: when ingested absorption is good, occurs throughout the intestine. Absorption occurs mainly due to lipophilicity, and not water solubility. The maximum concentration is reached after 50-75 minutes and is 1.58-1.76 mg / l. It is quickly distributed in all organs and tissues of the body: it easily penetrates the blood-brain barrier and the placenta. The volume of distribution in adults is 0,4-0,6 l / kg, in newborns - 0,78-0,92 l / kg.Communication with blood proteins (albumins) is 25-36%. Metabolism in the liver is more than 90, in children of the first years of life up to 10-15%. In adults, about 80% of the dose of caffeine is metabolized to paraxanthin, about 10 % - in theobromine and about 4% in theophylline, which are subsequently demethylated into monomethylxanthines, and then into methylated uric acids. The half-life in adults is 3.9-5.3 hours (sometimes up to 10 hours), in newborns - 65-130 hours (by 4-7 months of life it decreases to the value as in adults). The excretion of caffeine and its metabolites is carried out by the kidneys (in unchanged form in adults it is deduced 1-2%, in newborns - up to 85%).

Increased risk of bleeding after taking acetylsalicylic acid persists for 4-8 days. Very rarely, there may be severe bleeding (eg, cerebral hemorrhage), especially in patients with untreated hypertension and (or) with simultaneous use of anticoagulants, in some cases life threatening.

Overdose:

Acetylsalicylic acid

With mild intoxication - dizziness, noise in the ears, deafness, increased sweating, nausea, vomiting, headache and confusion. It occurs at a plasma concentration of 150-300 μg / ml. Treatment - dose reduction or cancellation of therapy. At concentrations above 300 μg / ml, severe intoxication occurs, manifested by hyperventilation, fever, anxiety, ketoacidosis, respiratory alkalosis, and metabolic acidosis. Oppression of the central nervous system can lead to coma, cardiovascular collapse and respiratory failure can also occur.

The greatest risk of developing chronic intoxication is noted in children and the elderly with more than 100 mg / kg / day for several days.

Treatment

If suspicion of intake of more than 120 mg / kg of salicylates during the last hour is repeatedly injected Activated carbon inside.

When taking more than 120 mg / kg salicylates should determine their plasma concentration, although it is impossible to predict its severity on the basis of this indicator, it is also necessary to take into account the clinical and biochemical indicators.

If the plasma concentration exceeds 500 μg / ml (350 μg / ml for children under 5 years), intravenous sodium bicarbonate effectively removes salicylates from the plasma. If the plasma concentration exceeds 700 μg / ml (lower concentrations in children and the elderly) or in severe metabolic acidosis, the therapy of choice is hemodialysis or hemoperfusion.

Paracetamol overdose

Overdose may lead to intoxication, especially in elderly patients, children, patients with liver diseases (caused by chronic alcoholism), in patients with malnutrition, as well as in patients taking inductors of microsomal liver enzymes, at which fulminant hepatitis, hepatic insufficiency, cholestatic hepatitis, cytolytic hepatitis, in the cases mentioned above, sometimes with a fatal outcome, may develop.

The clinical picture of acute overdose develops within 24 hours after taking paracetamol.

Symptoms: gastrointestinal disorders (nausea, vomiting, decreased appetite, a feeling of discomfort in the abdominal cavity and (or) abdominal pain), pallor of the skin.When single-step administration to adults is 7.5 g or more, or children of more than 140 mg / kg cytolysis of hepatocytes occurs with complete and irreversible necrosis of liver development of hepatic insufficiency, metabolic acidosis and encephalopathy, which may lead to coma and death. After 12-48 hours after the injection of paracetamol, the activity of microsomal liver enzymes, lactate dehydrogenase, bilirubin concentration and a decrease in prothrombin content are noted. Clinical symptoms of liver damage are manifested after 2 days after drug overdose and reach a maximum of 4-6 days.

Treatment

Immediate hospitalization.

Determination of the quantitative content of paracetamol in blood plasma before treatment at the earliest possible time after an overdose; Introduction donators SH- groups and precursors of the synthesis of glutathione - methionine and acetylcysteine - is most effective in the first 8 hours.

The need for additional therapeutic measures (further introduction of methionine, intravenous injection of acetylcysteine) is determined depending on the concentration of paracetamol in the blood, as well as on the time elapsed after its administration.

Symptomatic treatment.

Laboratory studies of the activity of microsomal liver enzymes should be performed at the beginning of treatment and then every 24 hours.

In most cases, the activity of microsomal liver enzymes is normalized within 1 -2 weeks. In very serious cases, liver transplantation may be required.

Caffeine

Common symptoms are gastralgia, agitation, delirium, anxiety, nervousness, anxiety, insomnia, mental agitation, muscular twitching, confusion, convulsions, dehydration, frequent urination, hyperthermia, headache, increased tactile or painful sensitivity, nausea and vomiting (sometimes with blood), tinnitus. In severe overdose, hyperglycemia may occur. Cardiac disorders are manifested by tachycardia and arrhythmia.

Treatment - lowering the dose or eliminating caffeine.

Interaction:

Acetylsalicylic acid

*Combination*	*Possible effects*
Other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs	Increase the damaging effect on the mucous membrane of the gastrointestinal tract (GIT), increase the risk of developing gastrointestinal bleeding.If it is necessary to use simultaneously, it is recommended to use gastroprotectors for the prevention of NSAID-induced gastrointestinal ulcers, therefore, simultaneous use is not recommended.
Glucocorticosteroids	Increase the damaging effect on the mucosa of the gastrointestinal tract, increase the risk of developing gastrointestinal bleeding. If it is necessary to simultaneously use it is recommended to use gastroprotectors, especially in persons over 65 years of age, so simultaneous use is not recommended.
Oral anticoagulants (eg, coumarin derivatives)	Acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) can potentiate the effect of anticoagulants. Clinical and laboratory monitoring of bleeding time and prothrombin time is necessary. Simultaneous use is not recommended.
Thrombolytics	Increased risk of bleeding. The use of ASA in patients during the first 24 hours after acute stroke is not recommended. Simultaneous use is not recommended.
Heparin	Increased risk of bleeding. Clinical and laboratory monitoring of bleeding time is required. Simultaneous use is not recommended.
Inhibitors of platelet aggregation (ticlopidine, paracetamol, clopidogrel, cilostazol)	Increased risk of bleeding. Clinical and laboratory monitoring of bleeding time is required. Simultaneous use is not recommended.
Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs)	Simultaneous use may affect blood clotting or platelet function, leading to an increased risk of bleeding in general, and in particular gastrointestinal bleeding, therefore simultaneous use is not recommended.
Phenytoin	ASA increases the plasma concentration of phenytoin, which requires its monitoring.
Valproic acid	ASA disrupts communication with plasma proteins and, therefore, can lead to an increase in its toxicity. It is necessary to monitor the plasma concentration of valproic acid.
Antagonists of aldosterone (spironolactone, canrenoate)	ASA can reduce their activity due to a violation of sodium excretion, proper blood pressure control is necessary.
Loop diuretics (for example, furosemide)	ASA can reduce their activity due to a glomerular filtration disorder caused by inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis in the kidneys.Simultaneous use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) can lead to acute renal failure, especially in dehydrated patients. If diuretics are used simultaneously with ASA, it is necessary to ensure sufficient rehydration of the patient and monitor kidney function and blood pressure, especially at the beginning of treatment with diuretics.
Hypotensive drugs (ACE inhibitors, angiotensin II receptor antagonists, blockers of "slow" calcium channels)	ASA may reduce their activity due to inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis in the kidneys. Simultaneous application can lead to acute renal failure in elderly or dehydrated patients. If diuretics are used simultaneously with ASA, it is necessary to ensure adequate rehydration of the patient and monitor kidney function and blood pressure. When used concomitantly with verapamil, bleeding time should be monitored.
Uricosuric agents (eg, probenecid, sulfinopupazone)	ASA can reduce their activity by inhibiting tubular reabsorption, resulting in a high plasma concentration of ASA.
Methotrexate ≤ 15 mg / week	ASA, like all NSAIDs, reduces the tubular secretion of methotrexate, increasing its plasma concentration and thus toxicity. In this regard, the simultaneous use of NSAIDs in patients receiving high doses of methotrexate is not recommended (see section "Contraindications"). In patients taking low doses of methotrexate, the risk of interaction between methotrexate and NG1VP should also be considered, especially in cases of impaired renal function. If combined therapy is necessary, it is necessary to monitor the general blood test, liver and kidney function, especially in the first days of treatment.
Derivatives of Sulfonylureas and insulin	ASA enhances their hypoglycemic effect, so a high dose of salicylates may require a reduction in the dose of hypoglycemic drugs. It is recommended to more often monitor the glucose in the blood.
Alcohol	Increases the risk of gastrointestinal bleeding, concomitant use should be avoided.

Paracetamol

*Combination*	*Possible effects*
Inducers of microsomal liver enzymes or potentially hepatotoxic substances (eg, alcohol, rifampicin, isoniazid, hypnotics and antiepileptics, including phenobarbital, phenytoin and carbamazepine)	An increase in the toxicity of paracetamol, which can lead to liver damage even with non-toxic doses of paracetamol, therefore, liver function should be monitored. Simultaneous use is not recommended.
Chloramphenicol	Paracetamol may increase the risk of increased concentrations of chloramphenicol. Simultaneous use is not recommended.
Zidovudine	Paracetamol may increase the propensity to develop neutropenia, and therefore hematological indicators should be monitored. Simultaneous application is possible only with the permission of the doctor.
Probenecid	Probenecid reduces the clearance of paracetamol, which requires a reduction in the dose of paracetamol. Simultaneous use is not recommended.
Indirect anticoagulants	Multiple paracetamol administration for more than one week increases the anticoagulant effect. Episodic reception of paracetamol has no significant effect.
Propantine and others drugs slowing down evacuation from the stomach	Reduce the suction speed paracetamol, which can delay or reduce the rapid relief of pain.
Metoclopramide and others preparations accelerating evacuation from the stomach	Increases suction speed paracetamol and, accordingly, effectiveness and the beginning of analgesic action.
Kolestyramine	Reduces the rate of absorption of paracetamol, so if you need maximum analgesia, colestramine take no earlier than 1 hour after taking paracetamol.

Caffeine

*Combination*	*Possible effects*
Sleeping pills (for example, benzodiazepines, barbiturates, blockers H1-histamine receptors)	Simultaneous application can reduce the hypnotic effect or reduce the anticonvulsant effect of barbiturates, so simultaneous use is not recommended. If it is necessary to apply simultaneously, the combination should be taken in the morning.
Lithium	The abolition of caffeine can increase the plasma concentration of lithium, since caffeine increases the renal clearance of lithium, so if you cancel caffeine, you may need to reduce the dose of lithium. Simultaneous use is not recommended.
Disulfiram	Patients treated with disulfiram,should warn about the need to avoid the use of caffeine, to avoid the risk of aggravation of alcohol withdrawal syndrome, due to the stimulating effect of caffeine on the cardiovascular and central nervous system.
Ephedrine-like substances	Increased risk of drug dependence. Simultaneous use is not recommended.
Sympathomimetics or levothyroxine	Due to mutual potentiation, the chronotropic effect can increase. Simultaneous use is not recommended.
Theophylline	Simultaneous use reduces the excretion of theophylline.
Antibacterials from the quinolone group, enoxacin, and piperidic acid), terbinafine, cimetidine, fluvoxamine and oral contraceptives	An increase in the half-life of caffeine due to inhibition of liver cytochrome P450, therefore, patients with impaired liver function, heart rhythm disorder and latent epilepsy should avoid using caffeine.
Nicotine, phenytoin and phenylpropanolamine	Decrease the terminal half-life of caffeine
Clozapine	Caffeine increases the serum concentration of clozapine, probably due to both pharmacokinetic,and pharmacodynamic mechanisms. It is necessary to monitor the serum concentration of clozapine. Simultaneous use is not recommended.

Special instructions:

Are common

This drug should not be taken concomitantly with medicines containing ASA or paracetamol.

Like other means for treating migraine, care should be taken to exclude other potentially serious neurological disorders prior to initiating treatment for suspected migraine in patients who have not previously been diagnosed with migraine, or for those patients with migraine who have atypical symptoms.

If patients develop vomiting during> 20% of migraine attacks, or> 50% of seizures require bed rest, the drug should not be used.

If migraine after taking the first two tablets of the drug is not stopped, you need to seek medical help.

The drug should not be used if the patient has had more than 10 headache attacks per month for at least the last three months. In this case, you should suspect a headache due to excessive use of drugs and cancel treatment.In addition, patients should seek medical help. Caution should be exercised in patients with risk factors for dehydration, for example, with vomiting, diarrhea, or before or after a major operation.

Due to its pharmacodynamic properties, the drug can mask the signs and symptoms of infection.

Due to the content in the preparation of acetylsalicylic acid

The drug should be used with caution in patients with gout, impaired renal or hepatic function, dehydration, uncontrolled hypertension, deficiency of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase and diabetes mellitus.

Due to the inhibition of ASA platelet aggregation, the drug may lead to prolonged bleeding time during and after surgical interventions (including small ones, for example, tooth extraction).

The drug should not be used simultaneously with anticoagulants and other drugs that violate blood coagulation, without the supervision of a doctor (see section "Interaction with other drugs"). Patients with blood clotting disorders should be carefully monitored. Care should be taken with metro or menorrhagia.

If a patient develops bleeding or ulceration of the gastrointestinal tract when taking the drug, it must be immediately canceled. At any point in the treatment of any NSAID, potentially lethal bleeding, ulceration and perforation of the gastrointestinal tract may occur with and without precursors and severe gastrointestinal complications in the history, and without them. These complications, as a rule, are more severe in elderly patients. Alcohol, glucocorticosteroids and NSAIDs may increase the risk of gastrointestinal bleeding (see section "Interaction with other drugs"). The drug can promote the development of bronchospasm and the appearance of exacerbation of bronchial asthma (including bronchial asthma due to intolerance to analgesics) or other hypersensitivity reactions. Risk factors include bronchial asthma, seasonal allergic rhinitis, nasal polyposis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, chronic respiratory tract infections (especially associated with symptoms characteristic of allergic rhinitis). Such phenomena can also occur in patients with allergic reactions (for example, skin, including pruritus and urticaria) on other substances. In such patients it is recommended that special care be taken.

Children under 18 should not be prescribed medications containing acetylsalicylic acid as an antipyretic, since in the case of a viral infection they can increase the risk of developing Reye's syndrome. Symptoms of Reye's syndrome include hyperpyrexia, prolonged vomiting, metabolic acidosis, disorders of the nervous system and psyche, hepatomegaly and impaired liver function, acute encephalopathy, respiratory failure, convulsions, coma.

ASA can distort the results of laboratory tests of thyroid function due to a false positive concentration of levothyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3) (see section "Interaction with other drugs").

Due to the content of paracetamol in the preparation

Caution should be exercised when prescribing the drug to patients with impaired renal or hepatic function or alcohol dependence.

The risk of paracetamol poisoning is increased in patients taking other potentially hepatotoxic drugs or drugs that induce microsomal liver enzymes (for example, rifampicin, isoniazid, chloramphenicol, hypnotics and anticonvulsants, including phenobarbital, phenytoin and carbamazepine). Patients with an alcoholism in the anamnesis are a special risk group for liver damage (see section "Interaction with other drugs").

Serious skin reactions such as acute generalized exanthematous pustulosis, Stevens-Johnson syndrome, toxic epidermal necrolysis, which can lead to death, can develop when the drug is used. Patients should be informed of the signs of serious skin reactions. The drug should be discontinued at the first manifestations of skin reactions or any other signs of hypersensitivity.

Due to the caffeine content in the preparation

The drug should be administered with caution to patients with gout, hyperthyroidism and arrhythmia.

When using the drug should limit the consumption of products containing caffeine, as excessive intake of caffeine can lead to nervousness, irritability, insomnia and, in some cases, increased heart rate.

Impact on laboratory research

High doses of ASA can distort the results of a number of clinical and biochemical laboratory studies.

The use of paracetamol can affect the results of the determination of uric acid by the phosphotungstic acid method and glycemia glucose oxidase / peroxidase method.

Caffeine can reverse the effects of dipyridamole on the bloodstream in the myocardium, thus distorting the results of this study. During the study, it is necessary to refrain from taking caffeine within 8-12 hours.

Effect on the ability to drive transp. cf. and fur:

During the use of the drug should refrain from driving and working with other mechanisms, t. caffeine, which is part of the drug, can cause a violation of concentration and reaction rate, and acetylsalicylic acid, also included in the preparation, may in rare cases cause dizziness.
