Pharmacological properties

Pharmacokinetics

After oral administration, paracetamol is rapidly absorbed from gastrointestinal tract(Gastrointestinal tract), mainly in small intestine... After a single dose of 500 mg maximum concentration in blood plasma (Cmax) is reached within 60 minutes and is about 16 μg / ml, then gradually decreases and after 6 hours is 11-12 μg / ml. The blood protein binding is less than 10%. It is excreted in the urine mainly in the form of glucuronide and sulfate conjugates.

Caffeine is metabolized in the liver (97%) to 1,7-methylxanthine,
1,7-dimethylmethylxanthine and 1,3-dimethyl uric acid, which are excreted in the urine.

After oral administration, phenylephrine is poorly absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract. It is metabolized with the participation of MAO in the intestinal wall and during the "first pass" through the liver. The bioavailability of phenylephrine is low.

Chlorpheniramine penetrates well into various tissues and through the blood-brain barrier. It is metabolized in the liver by methylation. It is excreted in the form of metabolites and unchanged by the kidneys and gastrointestinal tract.

Pharmacodynamics

Rinza® has analgesic, antipyretic and anti-allergic effects due to the active substances that make up the drug.

Paracetamol has an analgesic and antipyretic effect: reduces pain syndrome observed with colds - sore throat, headache, muscle and joint pain, reduces high fever... The mechanism of action is associated with the suppression of the synthesis of prostaglandins, mainly in the center of thermoregulation in the hypothalamus.

Caffeine has a stimulating effect on the central nervous system(CNS), which leads to increased mental and physical performance.

Phenylephrine hydrochloride is an α1-adrenergic agonist. Has a vasoconstrictor effect, reduces edema and hyperemia of the mucous membranes upper divisions respiratory tract and paranasal sinuses nose.

Chlorpheniramine maleate - a blocker of histamine H1 receptors, has an antiallergic effect, reduces swelling and hyperemia of the mucous membranes of the nasal cavity, nasopharynx and paranasal sinuses, eliminates itching in the eyes and nose, reduces exudative manifestations.

Indications for use

Symptomatic treatment:

ARVI ( febrile syndrome, pain syndrome, rhinorrhea)

Allergic rhinitis

Other colds accompanied by rhinitis, nasal congestion, headache, fever, chills, pain in joints, muscles.

From the nervous system: dizziness, sleep disturbance, irritability.

From the side of cardio-vascular system: increase blood pressure, tachycardia.

From the side digestive system: nausea, vomiting, pain in the epigastric region, dryness of the oral mucosa, hepatotoxic effect.

Drug interactions"type =" checkbox ">

Drug interactions

Enhances the effects of monoamine oxidase inhibitors, sedatives, ethanol.

When taken with digoxin or other cardiac glycosides, the risk of arrhythmias and myocardial infarction may increase.

Antidepressants, antiparkinsonian drugs, antipsychotics, phenothiazine derivatives - increase the risk of urinary retention, dry mouth, constipation. Glucocorticosteroids increase the risk of developing glaucoma. Microsomal oxidation inhibitors (cimetidine) reduce the risk of hepatitis toxic action... Metoclopramide and domperidone increase, and cholestyramine reduces the rate of absorption of paracetamol. Paracetamol reduces the effectiveness of uricosuric drugs. With the simultaneous administration of Rinza® with barbiturates, diphenin, carbamazepine, rifampicin and other inducers of liver microsomal enzymes, the risk of developing the hepatotoxic effect of paracetamol increases. In most patients on long-term warfarin, infrequent use of paracetamol usually has little or no effect on the international normalized ratio (INR). However, with prolonged regular use, paracetamol enhances the effect of indirect anticoagulants (warfarin and other coumarin derivatives), which increases the risk of bleeding. A single high dose of caffeine increases the excretion of lithium by the kidneys. Abrupt termination ingestion of caffeine can lead to an increase in serum lithium concentration.

Chlorpheniramine concurrently with monoamine oxidase inhibitors, furazolidone can lead to hypertensive crisis, agitation, hyperpyrexia.

Phenylephrine when taken with monoamine oxidase inhibitors can increase blood pressure. Phenylephrine reduces the effectiveness of beta-blockers and antihypertensive drugs. Tricyclic antidepressants increase the adrenomimetic effect of phenylephrine, the simultaneous administration of halothane increases the risk of developing ventricular arrhythmias... Reduces the hypotensive effect of guanethidine, which, in turn, enhances the alpha-adrenostimulating activity of phenylephrine.

Application during pregnancy and during breastfeeding

Due to the lack of clinical data, the safety of using the drug during pregnancy and during breastfeeding has not been established, therefore, the appointment of the drug in this category of patients is contraindicated.

Rinza Is a combination drug that is aimed at combating the symptoms of colds and acute respiratory diseases ( ARI), including influenza. This drug contains several components at once that act on almost all symptoms of acute respiratory diseases ( ARI), which saves the patient from taking several drugs at once. Rinza contains paracetamol, caffeine, phenylephrine hydrochloride and chlorphenamine maleate. These substances are recognized as safer and more effective in clinical practice.

Rinza mechanism of action

The medicinal properties of this drug are due to the presence in it of components that have antipyretic, analgesic, vasoconstrictor, antiallergic and psychostimulating effects.

Paracetamol is a drug that has antipyretic and analgesic effects. Due to its properties, it reduces pain cider, namely, sore throat, headache, joint pain and muscle pain, and reduces fever. All this is associated with the inhibition of the synthesis of prostaglandins in the center of thermoregulation, which is located in the hypothalamus.

Phenylephrine hydrochloride is a vasoconstrictor. It acts on α1-adrenergic receptors, which are located on blood vessels the nasal mucosa, and leads to their narrowing. As a result, the volume of blood flowing to the nose decreases and nasal congestion is relieved. This makes nasal breathing much easier.

Chlorphenamine maleate is a remedy that has an anti-allergic effect - it eliminates itching of the eyes, nose, swelling and hyperemia of the mucous membranes of the nasal cavity, nasopharynx and paranasal sinuses. This is due to the fact that this substance is a histamine inhibitor ( mediator allergic reactions immediate type).

Also, antibiotics are divided into several groups according to their chemical structure - macrolides, aminoglycosides, tetracyclines and others.

Rinza is not an antibiotic, but refers to a drug that has anti-inflammatory, analgesic and antipyretic effects as a result of inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis by inhibiting the activity of the enzyme cyclooxygenase ( COX).

What is the difference between Rinza and antiviral drugs ( remantadine, ingavirin)?

Antiviral drugs are medicines that are aimed at combating viral diseases (flu, measles, mumps and others). Today there are many antiviral drugs that can be obtained different ways... However, the process of obtaining them is rather complicated, due to which the price of these drugs may be overstated.

The risk of developing arrhythmias and myocardial infarction may increase.

Barbiturates, rifampicin, tricyclic antidepressants

Drugs that have a depressing effect on the central nervous system.

In case of overdose and simultaneous reception with paracetamol, the risk of liver toxicity increases.

Corticosteroids(prednisolone, hydrocortisone)

Rinza overdose

As a rule, an overdose is due to paracetamol. If the patient has taken more than 10 g of paracetamol, then he has liver damage. Also, intake of more than 5 g can lead to liver damage, but the patient may have several risk factors - regular overuse alcohol, malnutrition, cystic fibrosis, HIV infection, long-term treatment phenobarbital, rifampicin and other drugs that stimulate liver enzymes.

In case of an overdose with paracetamol, mainly adverse reactions such as anorexia ( lack of appetite), nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, pallor of the skin, increased sweating, general malaise, jaundice, acute liver failure, hepatomegaly ( enlarged liver). The consequences of acute liver failure there may be sepsis ( blood poisoning), fungal infection, bleeding from the gastrointestinal tract, cerebral edema, coma, hypoglycemia ( a decrease in the concentration of glucose in the blood), respiratory failure, pancreatitis and others.

There are also cases in which an overdose of other components of the rhinza is not excluded.

In case of an overdose of phenylephrine, nausea, vomiting, irritability, insomnia are observed, headache, convulsions, tachycardia and increased blood pressure.

Symptoms of a caffeine overdose are abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, chills, fever, arrhythmia, tachypnea ( rapid breathing), headache. Anxiety, insomnia, weakness, irritability, loss of appetite, tremors, hypokalemia ( a decrease in the concentration of potassium in the blood), hyponatremia ( a decrease in the concentration of sodium in the blood), hyperglycemia ( increased blood glucose concentration) and other pathological conditions.

Chlorpheniramine overdose can lead to hyperthermia ( overheating), dilated pupils, dry mouth, urinary retention, tachycardia, nausea, vomiting. Disorientation, hallucinations, psychosis, seizures and cardiac arrhythmias can also develop with an overdose of this substance.

Treatment of a suspected overdose includes gastric lavage and the appointment of activated charcoal by mouth and an antidote ( in the case of paracetamol, acetylcysteine ​​acts as an antidote) intravenously. This treatment is effective up to 24 hours after taking paracetamol. Further treatment must be carried out in a specialized department of the hospital with the help of doctors.
