PHARMACOLOGY:
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 (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 act centrally on the hypothalamic heat-regulating center
to
produce peripheral vasodilatation resulting in increase blood flow
through the
skin, sweating and heat loss.
Paracetamol reduces fever by inhibiting the formulation and release of
prostaglandins in the CNS and by inhibiting endogenous pyrogens at the
hypothalamic thermoregulator center.
Pharmacokinetics
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 analgesic through the
total
amount absorbed doses not increase.
The presence of food in the stomach has also been reported to reduce
the
rate
of
absorption
of
paracetamol.
