PORO
TABLET
INGREDIENT(S):
Each tablet contains:
Paracetamol (Acetaminophen)
................................................... 500mg
ACTION(S):
1. Paracetamol (Acetaminophen) may act by inhibiting prostaglandin
synthesis
in the central nervous system and through a peripheral action by
blocking
pain impulse generation. The peripheral action may also be due to
inhibition
of the synthesis of prostaglandins which sensitized pain receptors to
mechani-
cal or chemical stimulation.
2. Paracetamol produces antipyresis by acting centrally on the
hypothalamic
heat-regulation
center
to
produce
peripheral
vasodilation
resulting
in
increased blood flow through the skin, sweating and heat loss. The
central
action probably involves inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis in the
hypothala-
mus.
3. Paracetamol is readily and completely absorbed from the
gastrointes-
tinal tract with peak plasma concentration occurring between 15
minutes to 2
hours after ingestion. Paracetamol is uniformly distributed throughout
most
body fluids; the apparent volume of distribution is 1 to 1.2 L/kg.
Paracetamol
may cross placenta and excreted in milk. At therapeutic plasma levels,
no
protein binding occurs.
Paracetamol is metabolized by the hepatic microsomal enzyme system. In
adults at therapeutic doses, paracetamol is mainly conjugated with
glucuro-
nide (45-55%) or sulphate (20-30%). A minor proportion (less than 20%)
is
metabolized to catechol derivatives, and mercapturic acid compounds
via
oxidation. Paracetamol is metabolised differently by infants and
children
compared to adults, the sulphate conjugate being predominant.
Paracetamol is excreted by active tubular secretion: 85-90% of the
adminis-
tered dose is eliminated in the urine within 24 hours of
administration
Paracetamol has a half-life of 1 to 4 hours. Less than 5 % is excreted
as
unchanged paracetamol.
INDICATION(S):
For the symptomatic relief of mild to moderate pain and to reduce
fever.
DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION:
The usual adult dose is 1 - 2 table
