PHARMACODYNAMICS
Paracetamol is a centrally-acting analgesic and antipyretic with
minimal anti-inflammatory properties.
_Analgesic _
The mechanism of analgesic action has not been fully determined.
Paracetamol may act predominantly by inhibiting prostaglandin
synthesis in the central nervous system (CNS) (specifically
cyclooxygenase (COX)-2) and, to a lesser extent, through a
peripheral action by blocking pain-impulse generation.
The peripheral action may also be due to inhibition of prostaglandin
synthesis or to inhibition of the synthesis or actions of other
substances that sensitize pain receptors to mechanical or chemical
stimulation.
_Antipyretic _
Paracetamol acts centrally on the hypothalamic heat-regulating
centre to produce peripheral vasodilatation resulting in increased
blood flow through the skin, sweating and heat loss.
Paracetamol reduces fever by inhibiting the formation and release
of prostaglandins in the CNS and by inhibiting endogenous
pyrogens at the hypothalamic thermoregulator centre.
PHARMACOKINETICS
_Absorption _
Following oral administration, paracetamol is rapidly absorbed.
Paracetamol absorption takes place mainly in the small intestine
and therefore the rate of absorption is depending on the rate of
gastric emptying. It has been shown that drugs which delay gastric
emptying also delay the absorption of paracetamol whereas
metoclopramide (a drug which increases the rate of gastric
emptying) accelerates absorption of the paracetamol.
The presence of food in the stomach has also been reported to
reduce the rate of absorption of paracetamol. Alterations in gastric
pH have no appreciable effect on paracetamol absorption.
During absorption, the amount of paracetamol which is inactivated
is negligible and it has been shown that paracetamol does not aff
