Baralgin tablets m composition
One tablet contains: active ingredient: metamizole sodium - 500 mg; excipients: macrogol 4000 47 mg, magnesium stearate 3 mg.
Description Round, flat tablets from white to almost white in color with BARALGIN-M engraved on one side, scored on the other and chamfered on both sides.
Pharmacotherapeutic group: non-narcotic analgesic.
ATX code: N02BB02.
Pharmacological properties Pharmacodynamics An analgesic non-narcotic drug, a pyrazolone derivative, non-selectively blocks cyclooxygenase and reduces the formation of prostaglandins from arachidonic acid. It prevents the conduction of painful extra- and proprioceptive impulses along the Gaulle and Burchard bundles, increases the threshold of excitability of the thalamic centers of pain sensitivity, and increases heat transfer. A distinctive feature is the insignificant anti-inflammatory effect, which causes a weak effect on water-salt metabolism (retention of sodium and water ions) and the mucous membrane of the gastrointestinal tract. It has an analgesic, antipyretic and some antispasmodic (in relation to the smooth muscles of the urinary and biliary tract) effect.
Pharmacokinetics Metamizole sodium is well and quickly absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract. After oral administration, metamizop sodium is completely metabolized to form active 4-N-methylaminoantipyrine. The connection of the active metabolite with blood plasma proteins is 50-60%. Mainly excreted by the kidneys. After taking 1 g of metamizole sodium, the renal clearance for 4-N-methylaminoantipyrine was 5±2 ml/min. The half-life is 2.7 hours.
In therapeutic doses it passes into breast milk.
In patients with liver cirrhosis, the half-life of 4-14-methylaminoantipyrine increased threefold and was about 10 hours.

How to inject Baralgin intramuscularly
If spasms of the smooth muscles of the stomach occur during an exacerbation of a peptic ulcer, then the convulsively compressed muscles impede the blood supply to the intestines and stomach. This condition leads to the death of the tissues of the internal organs compressed by the muscles, so emergency treatment is necessary, which consists of administering Baralgin solution intramuscularly.
Baralgin injections help relieve severe attacks of pain due to renal or stomach colic. However, if the cause of the spasms has not been established, intramuscular or intravenous injections, according to the instructions for use, are strictly prohibited. If a patient has an acute inflammatory process in the gallbladder or kidney, then emergency pain relief will “blur” the picture, making it difficult to make a diagnosis, which can lead to a worsening of the patient’s condition.
Side effects
Since the drug acts systemically on the smooth muscles of all internal organs, its use may be accompanied by side effects from a variety of internal organs:
- From the urinary system, in some cases, oliguria, impaired renal function, anuria, interstitial nephritis, proteinuria, and red staining of urine may occur.
- Lecopenia, thrombocytopenia, and agranulocytosis may be observed on the part of the hematopoietic organs.
- Allergic reactions, including urticaria (including on the mucous membranes of the nasopharynx and conjunctiva), toxic epidermal necrolysis (Lyell's syndrome), angioedema, in rare cases Stevens-Edzhonson syndrome, bronchospastic syndrome, anaphylactic shock.
- During the use of Baralgin, anticholinergic effects such as decreased sweating, dry mouth, tachycardia, accommodation paresis, and difficulty urinating may occur. With intramuscular administration of ampoules, infiltrates are possible at the injection site.
When anaphylactic shock develops, emergency medical care is required - a slow intravenous injection of adrenaline solution (repeated after 15-30 minutes if necessary). Then glucocorticoids and antihistamines are administered, blood volume is replaced, and heart massage is performed.
