  • A Comparative Efficacy of Propacetamol and Ketorolac in Postoperative Patient Controlled Analgesia
    Korean J Pain 2015 July; Vol. 28, No. 3: 203-209 pISSN 2005-9159 eISSN 2093-0569 http://dx.doi.org/10.3344/kjp.2015.28.3.203 | Original Article | A Comparative Efficacy of Propacetamol and Ketorolac in Postoperative Patient Controlled Analgesia Department of Anesthesiology and Pain Medicine, Chonnam National University Medical School, Gwangju, Korea Bong Ha Heo, Ji Hun Park, Jung Il Choi, Woong Mo Kim, Hyoung Gon Lee, Soo Young Cho, and Myoung Ha Yoon Background: Ketorolac has been used as a postoperative analgesia in combination with opioids. However, the use of ketorolac may produce serious side effects in vulnerable patients. Propacetamol is known to induce fewer side effects than ketorolac because it mainly affects the central nervous system. We compared the analgesic effects and patient satisfaction levels of each drug when combined with fentanyl patient-controlled analgesia (PCA). Methods: The patients were divided into two groups, each with n = 46. The patients in each group were given 60 mg of ketorolac or 2 g of propacetamol (mixed with fentanyl) for 10 minutes. The patients were then given 180 mg of ketorolac or 8 g of propacetamol (mixed with fentanyl and ramosetron) through PCA. We assessed the visual analogue pain scale (VAS) at the time point immediately before administration (baseline) and at 15, 30, and 60 minutes, and 24 hours after administration. Also, the side effects of each regimen and each patient’s degree of satisfaction were assessed. Results: There was a significant decline in the VAS score in both groups (P < 0.05). However, there were no significant differences in the VAS scores between the groups at each time point.

  • Paracetamol Kabi Data Sheet
    NEW ZEALAND DATA SHEET 1 Paracetamol Kabi Solution for Infusion 10mg/mL 2 QUALITATIVE AND QUANTITATIVE COMPOSITION Paracetamol Kabi solution for infusion contains 10 mg/mL of paracetamol (50 mL vial/bag contains 500 mg of paracetamol, 100 mL vial/bag contains 1 g of paracetamol). Paracetamol Kabi solution for infusion contains the excipients mannitol, cysteine hydrochloride, nitrogen (as protective gas), water for injections. 3 PHARMACEUTICAL FORM Paracetamol solution for infusion 10 mg/mL is a clear to slightly yellowish solution. Paracetamol is a white crystalline solid or powder chemically described as 4 – acetamidophenol. It is soluble in water (1 in 70), soluble in alcohol (1 in 7), acetone (1 in 13), glycerol (1 in 40), propylene glycol (1 in 9) and also soluble in solutions of the alkali hydroxides. 4 CLINICAL PARTICULARS 4.1 Therapeutic indications Paracetamol 10 mg/mL solution for infusion is indicated for the relief of mild to moderate pain and the reduction of fever where an intravenous route of administration is considered clinically necessary. 4.2 Dose and method of administration The prescribed dose must be based on the patient’s weight. Unintentional overdose can lead to serious liver damage and death (see section 4.9 OVERDOSE). Healthcare providers are reminded that it is essential to follow both the weight-related dose recommendations and to consider individual patient risk factors for hepatotoxicity including hepatocellular insufficiency, chronic alcoholism, chronic malnutrition (low reserves of hepatic glutathione), and dehydration (see section 4.2 DOSE AND METHOD OF ADMINISTRATION – Hepatic Impairment). It is recommended that suitable oral analgesic treatment be substituted for Paracetamol solution for infusion as soon as the patient can be treated by the oral route (see section 4.3 CONTRAINDICATIONS).

    Alexandria Journal of Anaesthesia and Intensive Care 49 Propacetamol Versus Placebo for Management of Acute Postoperative Pain After Elective Tonsillectomy in Children. Mahmoud A Nassef, MD*. Ashraf M Moustafa, MD**. Ashraf A Moussa, MD***. *Department of Anesthesia, Beni-Suef Faculty of Medicine, Cairo University **Department of Anesthesia, Menoufiya University ***Department of Anesthesia,Menoufiya Liver Institute, Menoufiya University ABSTRACT The analgesic efficacy and safety of propacetamol, an injectable prodrug of acetaminophen, was assessed versus placebo after elective tonsillectomy operation in children. Using a double-blind, randomized parallel group design, 70 children aged 6-12 years were included to evaluate the effect of a single iv infusion of 40 mg/kg propacetamol versus a single infusion of 100 ml normal saline ( placebo ) given at the recovery room. Analgesic efficacy was assessed on pain scores rated on a four-points verbal scale, a five-points visual scale ( faces ) and a four-points pain relief verbal scale; before administration ( T0 ) and 0.25, 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 hours after the infusion. The global efficacy was rated on a five-point scale at the end of the study. Rescue medication was allowed freely and the time for re-medication as well as the occurrence of any side effects was recorded. Propacetamol was statistically superior to placebo on all assessment criteria. The global final efficacy evaluation demonstrated 12 patients in the propacetamol group with good and very good scores compared to only one patient in the placebo group. Rescue medication was used in 40% of patients in the propacetamol group versus 83% in the placebo group.

  • A Rare Case of Cerebral Venous Sinus Thrombosis (CVST) Induced by Norethisterone Enanthate: Report from a Medical University Hospital in Bangladesh
    Case Report Annals of Clinical Case Reports Published: 25 Jan, 2019 A Rare Case of Cerebral Venous Sinus Thrombosis (CVST) Induced by Norethisterone Enanthate: Report from a Medical University Hospital in Bangladesh Raknuzzaman1, Anis Ahmed1*, Masud Rana1, Kazi Jannat Ara1 and Dewan Md Emdadul Hoque1 1Department of Neurology, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University, Bangladesh 2Department of Epidemiology and Preventive Medicine, International Centre for Diarrhoeal Disease Research, Bangladesh Abstract Cerebral Venous Sinus Thrombosis (CVST) is a rare condition and the association between norethisterone enanthate and CVST in the literature has very seldom been reported. In this case report, a 22-year-old unmarried woman of Bangladesh presented with acute onset of headache and vomiting with history of oral intake of 5 mg norethisterone thrice daily during past 2 years for menstrual disorder. She had no history of seizure, visual disturbances, and neck stiffness, imbalance of gait and weakness of any limbs, any sensory complaints or any episode of unconsciousness during the course of illness. Bilateral papilloedema was present with more marked on left eye and serum homocysteine level was high. A brain CT scan, MRI and Magnetic Resonance Venogram (MRV) revealed thrombosed anterosuperior segment of superior sagittal sinus.

  • Norethisterone Enanthate Has Neither a Direct Effect on the Testis Nor On
    European Journal of Endocrinology (2005) 152 655–661 ISSN 0804-4643 EXPERIMENTAL STUDY Norethisterone enanthate has neither a direct effect on the testis nor on the epididymis: a study in adult male cynomolgus monkeys (Macaca fascicularis) Aris Junaidi, C Marc Luetjens, Joachim Wistuba, Axel Kamischke, Ching-Hei Yeung, Manuela Simoni and Eberhard Nieschlag Institute of Reproductive Medicine of the University, Domagkstr. 11, D-48149 Mu¨nster, Germany (Correspondence should be addressed to E Nieschlag; Email:[email protected]) A Junaidi is now at the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Gadjah Mada University, Jl. Olah Raga, Yogyakarta, Indonesia Abstract Objective: Norethisterone enanthate (NETE) is evaluated in trials of hormonal male contraception. It has been speculated that progestins may exert their contraceptive effects not only by suppressing gon- adotropins but also by direct effects on male organs. NETE was given to monkeys in which endogen- ous gonadotropin secretion was suppressed by a gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) antagonist, and replaced by human follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG). If NETE has a direct effect on spermatogenesis and/or epididymal function, some changes in testicular histology, sperm motility and/or morphology should occur soon after exposure to NETE. Methods: Fifteen adult intact male monkeys were grouped and treated for a 38-day period. Group I received GnRH antagonist, FSH, hCG and NETE while group II received a regime identical to group I without NETE and group III received only NETE and vehicle. Ejaculates, body weight, testicular biop- sies and volume, and hormones were evaluated. Results: There was a similar pattern of serum FSH and testosterone in groups I and II.

  • Study on Sperm Suppression Using Norethisterone Enanthate and Testosterone Undecanoate
    Study on sperm suppression using Norethisterone enanthate and testosterone undecanoate Objectives Overall goal: and The study was designed to address the following primary objectives: Background 1. The rate of suppression of spermatogenesis induced by a regimen of NET-EN and TU administered every 8 weeks for up to 4 injection visits; and 2. The level of contraceptive protection provided by the continued administration of NET-EN and TU every 8 weeks for an efficacy period of up to 56 weeks. Background: The study was designed to evaluate whether the combination of a progestin, norethisterone enantate (NET-EN), and an androgen, testosterone undecanoate (TU), represents a safe and effective method of male fertility regulation. The study had 3 phases. The suppression phase was to initiate a status of decreased sperm count and activity to a level which would be considered as contraceptive. When this was reached it was sustained with subsequent injections in the efficacy phase, which would end after 56 weeks, or if a pregnancy occurs. After these, the participant was then placed in the recovery phase, and was observed until normal sperm counts and activity returns to normal. 487 participants were screened for eligibility, of which 167 were excluded. The remaining 320 were enrolled into the study, into the suppression phase. A total of 274 completed the suppression phase. Of these 8 discontinued before transitioning to the Efficacy phase, and were moved to recovery phase. A total of 266 transitioned to the efficacy phase, among which 111 completed 56 weeks follow up or until a pregnancy occurred. The remaining 155 were discontinued, either because of the stopping of the study by the sponsor (96), death (1, unrelated to the study), or for other reasons (58).
