Andipal (Tablets) Instructions for Use
ATC Code
N02BB72 (Metamizole sodium in combination with psycholeptics)
Clinical-Pharmacological Group
Spasm analgesic
Pharmacotherapeutic Group
Analgesics; other analgesics and antipyretics; pyrazolones
Pharmacological Action
A combination drug that exerts vasodilating, analgesic, spasmolytic, and sedative effects.
Sodium metamizole has analgesic, antipyretic, and weak anti-inflammatory effects. The combination of spasmolytics (Bendazole and papaverine hydrochloride) with sodium metamizole enhances the analgesic effect of the latter for headache and migraine. The presence of phenobarbital in the preparation contributes to the manifestation of a sedative effect and enhances the action of the other components.
By reducing total peripheral vascular resistance and acting on arterioles, it lowers blood pressure, improves collateral circulation, and increases oxygen delivery to the heart.
Indications
Pain syndrome associated with spasm of peripheral arteries, smooth muscles of the gastrointestinal tract, and cerebral vessels.
Arterial hypertension.
