ANTIPIRINA - 40 BIOVET
DESCRIPTION
Antipyrine (phenazone) in oral and injectable solution.
TECHNICAL PROPERTIES
Antipyrine is a pyrazolic derivative with non-esteroidal antithermic, analgesic and anti-inflammatory action.
It inhibits the synthesis of prostaglandins in the thermoregulator hypothalamic centers. Absorption of antipyrine by intramuscular injection or oral route is quick and complete. It will diffuse in the blood linked to plasma proteins. It is excreted through the urine. Antipyrine has fewer side-effects than other non-esteroidal anti-inflammatories.
SPECIES & INDICATIONS
Indicated for poultry, pigs, sheep, goats and cattle with the following indications:
- Fever and inflammations of infectious origin. Here antipyrine presents some advantages over corticosteroids as antipyrine does not have proinfectious action. Steroidal anti-inflammatories decrease the activity of leukocytes subsequently decreasing the immune response and thus "helping" infections to proliferate.
- Arthritis, tendinitis, bursitis, contusions and local inflammations.
- Postpartum fever.
