No-spa injections: instructions for use. No-shpa: instructions for use No-shpa Shpa injections for children

Antipyretics for children are prescribed by a pediatrician. But there are emergency situations with fever when the child needs to be given medicine immediately. Then the parents take responsibility and use antipyretic drugs. What is allowed to be given to infants? How can you lower the temperature in older children? What medications are the safest?

No-spa is an antispasmodic drug.

No-shpa should be used with caution against the background of arterial hypotension, in children and during pregnancy.

When administering an injection solution intravenously, due to the risk of collapse, the patient must lie down.

Directions for use and dosage

Pills

  • Adults: single dose – 1-2 tablets, frequency of administration – 2-3 times a day (maximum – 240 mg);
  • Children from 12 years of age: single dose – 1-2 tablets, frequency of administration – 1-4 times a day (maximum – 160 mg);
  • Children 6-12 years old: single dose – 1 tablet, frequency of administration – 1-2 times a day.

The recommended duration of taking No-shpa without consulting a doctor is usually 1-2 days. If the drug is used for auxiliary therapy, the duration of the course without medical advice can be increased to 3 days. If there is no improvement, you should consult a doctor.

If the patient can independently diagnose the symptoms of his illness, since they are well known to him, he can also evaluate the effectiveness of therapy (disappearance of pain). If, within several hours after taking No-shpa at the maximum single dose, the pain decreases moderately or does not decrease at all, or if there is no significant improvement in the condition after taking the maximum daily dose, you should consult a doctor.

Injection solution

No-shpa solution is administered intravenously or intramuscularly.

Average adult daily dose is 40-240 mg of drotaverine hydrochloride (divided into 1-3 doses) intramuscularly.

For acute stone colic (cholelithiasis and/or kidney stones), the solution is administered intravenously at a dose of 40-80 mg.

In order to shorten the dilatation phase of the cervix at the beginning of the stretching period during physiological labor, 40 mg of No-shpa is administered intramuscularly; within 2 hours, if the effect is unsatisfactory, the solution can be re-administered.

Side effects

During the use of No-shpa at any dosage form the following disorders may develop (>10% - very common; >1% and<10% – часто; >0.1% and<1% – нечасто; >0.01% and<0,1% – редко; <0,01%, включая отдельные сообщения – очень редко; с неизвестной частотой – при невозможности определить частоту развития побочных действий по имеющимся данным):

  • Nervous system: rarely - dizziness, headache, insomnia;
  • Digestive system: rarely - constipation, nausea;
  • Cardiovascular system: rarely - palpitations, decreased blood pressure;
  • Immune system: rarely - allergic reactions (in the form of angioedema, itching, urticaria, rash).

special instructions

1 tablet contains 52 mg of lactose monohydrate, which is why patients with lactose intolerance may experience problems with the digestive system. No-shpa in this dosage form should not be taken by patients with lactase deficiency, galactosemia, or galactose/glucose malabsorption syndrome.

The injection solution contains bisulfite, which can lead to the development of allergic-type reactions, including anaphylactic symptoms and bronchospasm, especially in patients with a history of asthma or allergic diseases. In case of hypersensitivity to sodium metabisulfite, parenteral use of No-shpa is not recommended.

If any adverse reactions develop while taking the drug orally, the question of the ability to drive vehicles and operate machinery requires individual consideration. If dizziness occurs after taking No-shpa, it is recommended to avoid performing potentially hazardous types of work. After parenteral, especially intravenous administration, you should refrain from working on machines and driving a vehicle for 1 hour after using the drug. 4.91 Rating: 4.9 - 22 votes

Registration number: P N011854/01-050713
Tradename: No-shpa®.
International nonproprietary name: drotaverine.
Dosage form: solution for intravenous and intramuscular administration.

Compound
One ampoule (2 ml) contains the active ingredient: drotaverine hydrochloride - 40 mg;
excipients: sodium disulfite (sodium metabisulfite) - 2.0 mg, ethanol 96% - 132.0 mg, water for injection up to 2.0 ml.

Description: transparent liquid of greenish-yellow color.

Pharmacotherapeutic group: antispasmodic.
ATX code: A03AD02.

Pharmacological properties:

Drotaverine is an isoquinoline derivative that exhibits a powerful antispasmodic effect on smooth muscle by inhibiting the enzyme phosphodiesterase (PDE). The phosphodiesterase enzyme is necessary for the hydrolysis of c-AMP to AMP. Inhibition of the phosphodiesterase enzyme leads to an increase in the concentration of c-AMP, which triggers the following cascade reaction: high concentrations of c-AMP activate c-AMP-dependent phosphorylation of myosin light chain kinase (MLCK). Phosphorylation of MLCK leads to a decrease in its affinity for the calcium (Ca2+)-calmodulin complex, resulting in an inactivated form of MLCK supporting muscle relaxation. c-AMP also affects the cytosolic concentration of Ca2+ by stimulating the transport of Ca2+ into the extracellular space and the sarcoplasmic reticulum. This C2+-lowering effect of drotaverine through c-AMP explains the antagonistic effect of drotaverine on Ca2+.
In vitro, drotaverine inhibits the PDE-4 isoenzyme, without inhibiting the PDE-3 and PDE-5 isoenzymes. Therefore, the effectiveness of drotaverine depends on the concentrations of PDE-4 in tissues, the content of which varies in different tissues. PDE-4 is most important for suppressing the contractile activity of smooth muscles, and therefore selective inhibition of PDE-4 may be useful for the treatment of hyperkinetic dyskinesias and various diseases accompanied by a spastic state of the gastrointestinal tract.
The hydrolysis of c-AMP in the myocardium and vascular smooth muscle occurs mainly with the help of the PDE-3 isoenzyme, which explains the fact that with high antispasmodic activity, drotaverine has no serious side effects on the heart and blood vessels and no pronounced effects on the cardiovascular system .
Drotaverine is effective against smooth muscle spasms of both neurogenic and muscular origin. Regardless of the type of autonomic innervation, drotaverine has a relaxing effect on the smooth muscles of the gastrointestinal tract, biliary tract, and genitourinary system.

Pharmacokinetics
Drotaverine and/or its metabolites may slightly penetrate the placental barrier.
In vitro - drotaverine has a high binding to plasma proteins (95-97%), especially with albumin, γ and β-globumin, as well as α-HDL (high density lipoprotein).
In humans, drotaverine is almost completely metabolized by O-desethylation. Its metabolites quickly conjugate with glucuronic acid. The main metabolite is 4"-desethyldrotaverine, in addition to which 6-desethyldrotaverine and 4"-desethyldrotaveraldine have been identified.
In humans, a two-chamber mathematical model was used to assess the pharmacokinetics of drotaverine. The terminal half-life of plasma radioactivity was 16 hours.
The half-life is 8-10 hours. Within 72 hours, it is almost completely eliminated from the body, more than 50% through the kidneys (mainly in the form of metabolites) and about 30% through the intestines. Unchanged drotaverine is not detected in urine.

Indications for use

Spasms of smooth muscles associated with diseases of the biliary tract: cholecystolithiasis, cholangiolithiasis, cholecystitis, pericholecystitis, cholangitis, papillitis.
- spasms of smooth muscles of the urinary tract: nephrolithiasis, urethrolithiasis, pyelitis, cystitis, bladder tenesmus.
As an adjuvant therapy (when the tablet form cannot be used):
- for spasms of smooth muscles of gastrointestinal origin: peptic ulcer of the stomach and duodenum, gastritis, spasms of the cardia and pylorus, enteritis, colitis
- for gynecological diseases: dysmenorrhea.

Contraindications

Hypersensitivity to the active substance or to any of the excipients of the drug.
Hypersensitivity to sodium disulfite (see section "Special instructions").
- Severe liver or kidney failure.
- Severe chronic heart failure.
- Children's age (the use of drotaverine in children has not been studied in clinical studies).
- Breastfeeding period.

Carefully:

In case of arterial hypotension (danger of collapse, see section “Special instructions”);
- In pregnant women (see section “Pregnancy and lactation”)

Pregnancy and lactation period

As shown by studies on reproductive toxicity in animals and retrospective studies of clinical data, the use of drotaverine during pregnancy had neither teratogenic nor embryotoxic effects. Despite this, when prescribing drotaverine to pregnant women, caution should be exercised and it should be used only in cases where the potential benefit to the mother outweighs the potential risk to the fetus, and the injection dosage form of the drug No-shpa® should be avoided in pregnant women. The drug should not be used during childbirth (potential risk of developing postpartum atonic hemorrhage).
Due to the lack of necessary clinical data, it is not recommended to prescribe the drug during lactation.

Directions for use and doses

Adults:
The average daily dose is 40-240 mg of drotaverine hydrochloride (divided into 1-3 doses per day) intramuscularly.
For acute colic (renal or cholelithiasis) - 40-80 mg intravenously slowly (duration of administration is approximately 30 seconds).

Side effect

Use during pregnancy or breastfeeding

Pregnancy. As shown by the results of retrospective clinical studies and animal studies, the use of the drug did not cause any signs of any direct or indirect effect on pregnancy, embryonic development, childbirth or postpartum development. However, caution should be exercised when prescribing the drug to pregnant women. Drotaverine should not be used during childbirth.

Lactation. Due to the lack of data from relevant animal studies, administration of the drug during lactation is not recommended.

Children

The drug is used for children.

Features of application

Due to the risk of collapse When administering No-shpa ® intravenously, the patient should be in a supine position.

Use with caution in case of arterial hypotension.

The drug contains metabisulfite, which may cause allergic-type reactions, including symptoms of anaphylactic shock and bronchospasm in sensitive patients, especially those with a history of asthma or allergies. In case of hypersensitivity to sodium metabisulfite, parenteral administration of the drug should be avoided.

Caution should be exercised when administering the drug parenterally to pregnant women (see Section “Use during pregnancy or lactation”).

The ability to influence reaction speed when driving a vehicle or operating machinery

It is necessary to warn patients that after parenteral, especially intravenous administration of the drug, it is recommended to refrain from driving and performing work that requires increased attention.

Interaction with other drugs and other types of interactions

Phosphodiesterase inhibitors (No-shpa ® , papaverine) reduce the antiparkinsonian effect of levodopa. No-shpa ® should be used with caution simultaneously with levodopa, since the antiparkinsonian effect of the latter decreases, and rigidity and tremor increase.

Pharmacological properties

Pharmacological. Drotaverine is an isoquinoline derivative that has an antispasmodic effect on smooth muscles by inhibiting the action of the enzyme phosphodiesterase IV (PDE IV), which leads to an increase in the concentration of cAMP and, due to the inactivation of myosin light chain kinase (MLCK), to relaxation of smooth muscles.

In vitro drotaverine inhibits the action of the enzyme PDE IV and does not affect the action of the isoenzymes phosphodiesterase III (PDE iii) and phosphodiesterase V (PDE V). PDE IV is of great functional importance in reducing the contractile activity of smooth muscles, so selective inhibitors of this enzyme may be useful in the treatment of diseases that are accompanied by hypermotility, as well as various diseases during which spasms of the gastrointestinal tract occur.

In the smooth muscle cells of the myocardium and blood vessels, cAMP is hydrolyzed mainly by the PDE III isoenzyme, therefore drotaverine is an effective antispasmodic agent that does not have significant side effects on the cardiovascular system and a strong therapeutic effect on this system.

Drotaverine is effective against smooth muscle spasms of both nervous and muscular origin. Drotaverine acts on the smooth muscles of the gastrointestinal, biliary, genitourinary and vascular systems, regardless of the type of their autonomous innervation. It increases blood circulation in tissues due to its ability to dilate blood vessels.

pharmachologic effect

An antispasmodic agent, an isoquinoline derivative, similar in chemical structure and pharmacological properties to papaverine, but with a stronger and longer-lasting effect. It has a powerful antispasmodic effect on smooth muscles due to inhibition of the PDE enzyme. The enzyme PDE is necessary for the hydrolysis of cAMP to AMP. Inhibition of PDE leads to an increase in cAMP concentration, which triggers the following cascade reaction: high concentrations of cAMP activate cAMP-dependent phosphorylation of myosin light chain kinase (MLCK). Phosphorylation of MLCK leads to a decrease in its affinity for the Ca2+-calmodulin complex, as a result of which the inactivated form of MLCK maintains muscle relaxation. In addition, cAMP affects the cytosolic concentration of Ca2+ ion by stimulating the transport of Ca2+ into the extracellular space and the sarcoplasmic reticulum. This lowering Ca2+ ion concentration effect of drotaverine through cAMP explains the antagonistic effect of drotaverine towards Ca2+. In vitro, drotaverine inhibits the PDE4 isoenzyme without inhibiting the PDE3 and PDE5 isoenzymes. Therefore, the effectiveness of drotaverine depends on the concentration of PDE4 in tissues (the content of PDE4 in different tissues varies). PDE4 is most important for suppressing the contractile activity of smooth muscles, and therefore selective inhibition of PDE4 may be useful for the treatment of hyperkinetic dyskinesias and various diseases accompanied by a spastic state of the gastrointestinal tract. The hydrolysis of cAMP in the myocardium and vascular smooth muscle occurs mainly with the help of the PDE3 isoenzyme, which explains the fact that with high antispasmodic activity, drotaverine has no serious side effects on the heart and blood vessels and no pronounced effects on the cardiovascular system. Drotaverine is effective against smooth muscle spasms of both neurogenic and muscular origin. Regardless of the type of autonomic innervation, drotaverine relaxes the smooth muscles of the gastrointestinal tract, biliary tract, and genitourinary system. Due to its vasodilating effect, drotaverine improves blood supply to tissues.

Pharmacokinetics

In humans, a two-chamber mathematical model was used to assess the pharmacokinetics of drotaverine. Absorption After oral administration, drotaverine is quickly and completely absorbed. After first-pass metabolism, 65% of the administered dose of drotaverine enters the systemic circulation. Cmax in blood plasma is reached after 45-60 minutes. Distribution In vitro, drotaverine is highly bound to plasma proteins (95-98%), especially albumin, beta and gamma globulins. Drotaverine is evenly distributed in tissues and penetrates smooth muscle cells. Does not penetrate the BBB. Drotaverine and/or its metabolites are able to slightly penetrate the placental barrier. Metabolism In humans, drotaverine is almost completely metabolized in the liver by O-desethylation. Its metabolites quickly conjugate with glucuronic acid. The main metabolite is 4"-desethyldrotaverine, in addition to which 6-desethyldrotaverine and 4"-desethyldrotaveraldine have been identified. Elimination T1/2 is 8-10 hours. The final T1/2 of plasma radioactivity was 16 hours. Within 72 hours, drotaverine is almost completely eliminated from the body. More than 50% of drotaverine is excreted by the kidneys and about 30% through the intestines (excretion into bile). Drotaverine is mainly excreted in the form of metabolites; unchanged drotaverine is not found in the urine.

Special conditions

The tablets contain 52 mg of lactose, as a result of which complaints from the digestive system are possible in patients with lactose intolerance. Therefore, the drug in tablet form is not prescribed to patients with lactase deficiency, galactosemia or impaired glucose/galactose absorption syndrome. The solution for intravenous and intramuscular administration contains sodium bisulfite, which can cause allergic reactions, including anaphylactic and bronchospasm, in sensitive individuals (especially in individuals with bronchial asthma or a history of allergic reactions). In case of hypersensitivity to sodium metabisulfite, parenteral use of the drug should be avoided. When administering the drug intravenously to patients with low blood pressure, the patient should be in a horizontal position due to the risk of collapse. Effect on the ability to drive vehicles and operate machinery When taken orally in therapeutic doses, drotaverine does not affect the ability to drive vehicles and perform work that requires increased concentration. If any adverse reactions occur, the issue of driving and operating machinery requires individual consideration. If dizziness occurs after taking the drug, you should avoid engaging in potentially hazardous activities, such as driving vehicles and working with machinery. After parenteral administration of the drug, it is recommended to refrain from driving vehicles and engaging in other potentially hazardous activities that require high concentration and speed of psychomotor reactions.

Use the drug with caution in case of arterial hypotension (due to the risk of collapse), during pregnancy; in children (for tablets).

No-spa dosage

  • 20 mg/ml 40 mg 80 mg

No-spa side effects

  • From the central nervous system: headache, dizziness, drowsiness. From the cardiovascular system: arterial hypotension, tachycardia, hot flashes. From the digestive system: nausea, constipation; rarely (when taken in high doses and long-term use) - toxic liver damage. From the hematopoietic system: agranulocytosis, thrombocytopenia. Allergic reactions: skin rash; very rarely - bronchospasm, swelling of the nasal mucosa. When taking the drug in very high doses, death (irreversible tissue necrosis) is possible. When using the drug according to indications in recommended doses, side effects are rare.

Drug interactions

Drug interactions caused by drotaverine When No-shpalgin is used simultaneously with levodopa, drotaverine reduces its effect, which can lead to increased tremor and muscle rigidity. Drug interactions caused by paracetamol When No-shpalgin is used simultaneously with inducers of microsomal liver enzymes (salicylamide, barbiturates, antiepileptic drugs, tricyclic antidepressants, ethanol, rifampicin), an increase in the toxicity of paracetamol is observed. With the simultaneous use of No-shpalgin with chloramphenicol, the half-life of chloramphenicol is prolonged and its toxicity increases. When No-shpalgin is used simultaneously with doxorubicin, there is a risk of developing a hepatotoxic effect. Paracetamol, when used simultaneously, reduces the effectiveness of uricosuric drugs. Metoclopramide and domperidone enhance the absorption of paracetamol, and cholestyramine reduces it

Overdose

nausea, vomiting, circulatory disorders and respiratory depression are the main symptoms of a codeine overdose. The condition of a patient who has taken an excessively high dose of paracetamol may be satisfactory during the first 3 days, and only after that signs of liver damage appear.

Storage conditions

  • keep away from children
  • store in a place protected from light

pharmachologic effect

Antispasmodic myotropic action.
Reduces the tone of the smooth muscles of internal organs, reduces their motor activity, and moderately dilates blood vessels.
It is superior to papaverine in terms of severity and duration of antispasmodic action. Has no effect on the autonomic nervous system and central nervous system.
Due to the fact that No-Spa acts directly on smooth muscles, it can be used as an antispasmodic in cases where drugs from the group of anticholinergics are contraindicated (glaucoma, prostate hypertrophy).
When administered intravenously, the effect of the drug appears within 2-4 minutes. The maximum effect develops after 30 minutes.

Pharmacokinetics

When taken orally, drotaverine hydrochloride is quickly absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract, the half-absorption period is 12 minutes. Bioavailability is about 100%. Cmax in serum is reached after 45-60 minutes.
Distribution
Drotaverine hydrochloride does not penetrate the BBB.
Metabolism
Drotaverine hydrochloride is biotransformed in the liver.
Removal
After 72 hours, it is practically excreted from the body in the form of metabolites - 50% in urine and 30% in feces.
