Taking Analgin with food and drink

During treatment with Analgin, it is not recommended to use alcohol due to the possibility of increasing the side effects of the drug.

Pregnancy and breast-feeding

If you are pregnant or breast-feeding, think you may be pregnant or are planning to have a baby, ask your doctor or pharmacist for advice before taking this medicine.

Pregnancy
Available data on the use of metamizole during the first three months of pregnancy are limited, but do not indicate harmful effects for the embryo. In certain cases, where there are no other treatment options, it is possible to accept the administration of single doses of metamizole in the first and second trimesters after consulting a doctor or pharmacist and after careful consideration of the benefits and risks of using metamizole. In general, however, the use of metamizole in the first and second trimesters is not recommended.

During the last three months of pregnancy, you should not take Analgin because of an increased risk of complications for the mother and child (bleeding, premature closure of an important blood vessel, the so-called Bottali ductus, in the unborn, which closes naturally only after birth).

Metamizole
breakdown products pass into breast milk in significant quantities and a risk to the infant cannot be excluded. Therefore, repeated use of metamizole during breast-feeding should be avoided. In the case of a single administration of metamizole, mothers are advised to collect and dispose of breast milk for 48 hours after dosing.

Driving and using machines

When taking high doses of Analgin, it is not recommended to drive motor vehicles or work with machines requiring active attention, as it is likely to adversely affect attention and disrupt reactions to unexpected situations.

Analgin contains wheat starch

The wheat starch in this medicine contains only very small amounts of gluten and is unlikely to cause problems if you have celiac disease (gluten intolerance). One tablet contains no more than 3.4 micrograms of gluten.
If you have an allergy to wheat (a condition other than celiac disease), you should not take this medicine.

Analgin contains sodium

This medicinal product contains 32.7 mg sodium per tablet, equivalent to 1.6% of the WHO recommended maximum daily intake of 2 g sodium for an adult.

3. How to use Analgin

Always use Analgin exactly as described in this leaflet. Check with your doctor or pharmacist if you are not sure.
The dose depends on the intensity of pain or fever and individual sensitivity to analgin.
The lowest dose needed to manage pain and fever should be selected. Your doctor will tell you how to take Analgin. Tablets are taken by mouth.

Adults and adolescents over 15 years of age Adults and adolescents 15 years of age
or older (weighing more than 53 kg) can take up to 1000 mg of metamizole as a single dose (2 tablets), which can be taken up to 4 times a day at intervals of 6 – 8 hours. The maximum daily dose is 4,000 mg (corresponding to 8 tablets).

Children from 10 to 14 years of age (weighing from 32 kg to 53 kg)
The following table shows the recommended single doses and maximum daily doses depending on weight or age:

Children under 10 years of age Analgin tablets 500 mg is not recommended for children under 10 years due to the inability to dosage in this age
group. Other dosage forms/quantities of the active substance are available which may be appropriately dosed in younger children.

A pronounced effect can be expected 30 to 60 minutes after oral administration.

Elderly and patients with poor general health/renal impairment
The dose should be reduced in the elderly, in debilitated patients and in patients with reduced renal function, as the excretion of metamizole degradation products may be delayed.

Patients with impaired renal or hepatic function
Since the rate of excretion is reduced in patients with impaired renal or hepatic function, repeated high doses should be avoided. No dose reduction is required only with short-term use. There is no experience available from long-term use.

Duration of treatment

Apply Analgin no more than 3 to 5 days. If within 3 days there is no relief of symptoms, normalization of temperature, consult the attending physician.
