Uses: Analgesic; antipyretic Uses: antiinfectant Uses: dispersing agent in liquid scintillation counting Uses: manufacture of azo dyes, photographic chemicals. Uses: Acetaminophen is widely used as an analgesic and fever-reducing agent. Acetaminophen is designed for moderate analgesia. It is also effective like aspirin and is used in analgesia for headaches (from weak to moderate pain), myalgia, arthralgia, chronic pain, for oncological and post-operational pain, etc.
Usage This product is antipyretic and analgesic whose international nonproprietary name is Paracetamol. It is the most common non anti-inflammatory analgesia-antipyretic drugs without anti inflammatory and anti rheumatism action. Its antipyretic effect is similar to aspirin, but analgesic effect is weak. It is the best of breed of acetanilid drugs. The product is especially suitable for patients who cannot use carboxylic acids drugs. It is used for cold and toothache. Acetaminophen is also used as organic synthesis intermediates, stabilizer of hydrogen peroxide, photographic chemicals. Dosage 1. Oral (1) Paracetamol tablets or paracetamol capsules: adults take 300~600mg at a time and 3~4 times a day according to the need. The daily dosage should not be greater than 2g. Defervescence treatment is generally less than 3 days and the administration of pain relief lasts less than 10 days. Children take 10~15mg/kg every 4~ 6 hours. The dosage of children under the age of 12 does not exceed 5 times a day, a five-day course at most. This product should not be taken for a long time.
2. Dispersible tablets: When take tablets, disperse them in warm water dispersion. The commonly used amount of children is 10~15mg/kg every 4~ 6 hours. The dosage of children under the age of 12 does not exceed 5 times a day, a five-day course at most. Children under 3 years old cut back on the amount.
The chemiacal name of 4-acetaminophen is N-(4-hydroxy phenyl) acetamide and the trade name is paracetamol belonging to acetanilide antipyretic analgesics. It was first synthesized by Morse in 1878 and first used in clinic by VonMering in 1893. It has become an over the counter drug in the USA since 1955 and our country started production at the end of the 1950's. 4-acetaminophen is a white crystalline or a crystalline powder in appearance with melting point from 168ºC to 172ºC, odorless, slightly bitter taste, freely soluble in hot water or ethanol, dissolved in acetone, practically insoluble in cold water and petroleum ether. It is stable below 45ºC but will be hydrolyzed into p-aminophenol when exposed to humid air, then oxidized further. The color grades gradually from pink to brown then to black, so it should be sealed and stored in a cool and dry place.
4-Acetamidophenol has the antipyretic activity by inhibiting the synthesis of hypothalamic thermoregulation prostaglandins and its strength of antipyretic effect is similar to aspirin. On the other hand, 4-Acetamidophenol can produce analgesic effect by inhibiting the synthesis of prostaglandins in the central nervous system and blocking impulses of nociceptive nerve endings, but weaker than aspirin. Compared with aspirin, 4-Acetamidophenol has minor irritation, few allergic reactions and other advantages. Its antipyretic and analgesic effect is similar to phenacetin, and the use of 4-acetaminophen increases due to limiting or banning using phenacetin in many countries.
In clinical, it is mainly used for fever and headache caused by cold and relieving mild to moderate pain such as joint pain, muscle pain, neuralgia, migraine, dysmenorrhea, cancer pain, postoperative analgesia and so on. It can be used for patients who are allergic to aspirin, intolerant of aspirin, or unsuited for aspirin, such as patients with varicella, hemophilia and other hemorrhagic disease (patients having anticoagulant therapy included), as well as patients with slight peptic ulcer and gastritis. In addition, it also can be used for the synthesis of benorylate and used as asymmetric synthetic intermediates, photographic chemicals and stabilizer of hydrogen peroxide.
