  • Metamizol Suicide - Lethal Outcome Despite Maximum Therapy
    Toxichem Krimtech 2012;79(2):71 Report from the Clinical Toxicology Committee of the Society of Toxicological and Forensic Chemistry (GTFCh) Metamizol Suicide - Lethal Outcome Despite Maximum Therapy Detlef Haase, Sabine Hübner, Silke Kunellis, Gerlinde Kotzerke, Harald König Helios Hospital Schwerin, Institute for Laboratory and Transfusion Medicine, Toxicology Department, Wismarsche Straße 393-397, D-19049 Schwerin, Germany Abstract A 70 year old female patient, suffering for years from rheumatoid arthritis and associated chronic pain was referred to the hospital by an emergency physician. Her blood pressure was no longer measurable; a hemiparesis has developed. A preliminary examination was carried out in the emergency department by a neurologist and a cerebral CT was requested. Immediately after examination, the patient suffered from hypodynamic cardiac arrest and had to be cardiopulmonary resuscitated. After stabilisation she was transferred to the Stroke Unit, where tonic-clonic convulsive seizures occurred. Toxicological general-unknown analysis of the patient's serum confirmed a suspected metamizol intoxication. Despite a maximum permissible dose of noradrenaline, she died four days after hospitalisation due to multiple organ failure. 1. Introduction 1.1. Metamizol Metamizol (novaminsulfone), closely related to phenazone and propyphenazone, is the most powerful analgesic and antipyretic of the pyrazolone derivatives and still on the market. 4-N- methyl-aminoantipyrine (MAA) is also effective, but formed through metamizol hydrolysis in the body. Patients with glucose-6-dehydrogenase deficiency should never use metamizol, be- cause a haemolytic crisis could be triggered. In addition, metamizol has a considerable poten- tial for side-effects, of which agranulocytosis is the most significant [1]. Therefore, metamizol is no more licensed in many countries.

  • Development of a SPE–UHPLC–MS/MS Methodology for the Determination of Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory and Analgesic Pharmace
    Development of a SPE–UHPLC–MS/MS methodology for the determination of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory and analgesic pharmaceuticals in seawater Paula Paíga, Aleksandar Lolic´, Floris Hellebuyck, Lúcia H.M.L.M. Santos, Manuela Correia, Cristina Delerue-Matos a b s t r a c t An analytical methodology for the simultaneous determination of seven pharmaceuticals and two metabolites belonging to the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and analgesics therapeutic groups was developed based on off-line solid-phase extraction and ultra-high performance liquid chro- matography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry (SPE–UHPLC–MS/MS). Extraction conditions were optimized taking into account parameters like sorbent material, sample volume and sample pH. Method detection limits (MDLs) ranging from 0.02 to 8.18 ng/L were obtained. This methodology was successfully applied to the determination of the selected pharmaceuticals in seawater samples of Atlantic Ocean in the Northern Portuguese coast. All the pharmaceuticals have been detected in the seawater samples, with pharmaceuticals like ibuprofen, acetaminophen, ketoprofen and the metabolite hydroxyibuprofen being the most frequently detected at concentrations that can reach some hundreds of ng/L. Keywords: Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs Analgesics UHPLC–MS/MS SPE Seawater 1. Introduction Pharmaceuticals have been recognized as important emerging killifish [11].

Apart from any use as permitted under the Copyright Act 1968, no part may be repoduced by any process without written permission from AusInfo. Requests and enquiries concerning reproduction and rights should be directed to the Manager, Legislative Services, AusInfo, GPO Box 1920, Canberra, ACT 2601. Publication approval number 2446 ii FOREWORD The Australian Statistics on Medicines (ASM) is an annual publication produced by the Drug Utilisation Sub-Committee (DUSC) of the Pharmaceutical Benefits Advisory Committee. Comprehensive drug utilisation data are required for a number of purposes including pharmacosurveillance and the targeting and evaluation of quality use of medicines initiatives. It is also needed by regulatory and financing authorities and by the Pharmaceutical Industry. A major aim of the ASM has been to put comprehensive and valid statistics on the Australian use of medicines in the public domain to allow access by all interested parties. Publication of the Australian data facilitates international comparisons of drug utilisation profiles, and encourages international collaboration on drug utilisation research particularly in relation to enhancing the quality use of medicines and health outcomes. The data available in the ASM represent estimates of the aggregate community use (non public hospital) of prescription medicines in Australia. In 1997 the estimated number of prescriptions dispensed through community pharmacies was 179 million prescriptions, a level of increase over 1996 of only 0.4% which was less than the increase in population (1.2%).

Requests and inquiries concerning reproduction and rights should be addressed to the Manager, Legislative Services, AusInfo, GPO Box 1920, Canberra ACT 2601. Publications Approval Number: 3183 (PA7270) FOREWORD Comprehensive and valid statistics on use of medicines by Australians in the public domain should be accessible to all interested parties. From the first edition in 1992 until 1999 the Drug Utilisation SubCommittee (DUSC) produced the Australian Statistics on Medicines (ASM) for each calendar year to 1998. It is pleasing indeed to be able to present these again this year, with the inclusion of estimates for the years since the last edition. A continuous data set representing estimates of the aggregate community use (non public hospital) of prescription medicines in Australia is a key tool for the Australian Medicines Policy. The ASM presents dispensing data on most drugs marketed in Australia and is the only current source of data in Australia to cover all prescription medicines dispensed in the community. Drug utilisation data can assist the targeting and evaluation of quality use of medicines initiatives, and the evaluation of changes to the availability of medicines. It is also needed for pharmacosurveillance by regulatory and financing authorities and by the Pharmaceutical Industry. Publication of the Australian data also facilitates international comparisons of drug utilisation profiles and encourages international collaboration on drug utilisation research particularly in relation to enhancing the quality use of medicines and health outcomes.
