OPIODS
⚫Opiod analgesics are one of the oldest remedies for
relief pain.
⚫Opium is
obtained
the dark brown
from the poppy
gummy
capsule
exudate
(papaver
somniferum)
⚫Opium has been in use since 4000BC.
CLASSIFICATION
Based on receptor occupation
1.Agonists
A.Natural opium alkaloids
Morphine ,codeine,
B.Synthetic opioids
Pethidine,Methadone
2.Antagonists
Naloxone,naltrexone
3.Mixed agonist antagonists
Pendazocine,nalpurine,butorphanol,Buprenorphine,nalorphine
MORPHINE
In CNS mu ( ),kappa( k)and delta( ) receptors
Stimulationof opioid receptors (Morphine)
Decrease the Intra cellular Calcium Level
Decrease the release of Neurotransmitter
It decreases the visceral Pain
Pharmacological action
⚫1.Analgesia:
Morphine is a potent analgesic and relieves pain without loss of
consciousness.in higher doses it relieves severe pain as that of biliary
colic.
⚫2.Euphoria ,sedation and hypnosis
Rapid IV inj of morphine produces a warm flushing of the
skin and an immensely pleasurable sensation.
It also produces drowsiness
3.Respiration
Morphine produce respiratory depression. It
directlydepresses the respiratory center in the
brain stem
4.Cough center
Itdirectlydepress thecough center and thereby
suppress cough.opioids should be used as
antitussiveonly in the dry cough
5.Nausea and emesis
Morphine directly stimulates the CTZ in the medula causing
nausea and vomitting.in higher doses it depress the
vomitting center and hence there is no vomitting in
poisoning .
6.pupil
Morphine produces miosis resulting in a characteristic
pinpoint pupil in high doses.
7.vagus
Morphine stimulates vagal center causing bradycardia.
8.Heat regulation
Opioids shift the equlibirium point of heat regulating
center so that body temperature falls slightly.
9.Truncal rigidity
Higher dose of fentanyl found to enhance the tone of
the large trunk muscles by acting at supraspinal
levels.
10.Excitatory effect
In high doses opioids produce convulsion
• In therapeutic dose morphine produces
hypotension by;
• Direct peripheral vasodilatation.
• Inhibition of baroreceptor reflexes.
• In higher doses ,it causes depression of vasomotor
center and histamine release both contributing to a fall
in BP.
Cardiovascular system
• GIT
Opioids decrease the motility of the gut.
• Stomach
Gasric motility is decreased resulting in increased gastric empting time.gastric
acid secretion is reduced.
• Intestine :
Morphine diminises all secretions,delays digestion of food in the small
intestine.
• Other Smooth Muscles
Biliary tract – Morphine causes spasm of the sphincter of Oddi.Atrophine partially
antagonise this .
Urinary Bladder and Ureter – Opioids inhibit urinary voiding reflex, as a result of this
urinary retention occurs especially in the elderly males with Prostatic hypertrophy.
Bronchi –Morphine causes release of histamine from the mast cells leads to broncho
constriction.
Adverse effects
• Nausea, Vomiting
• Respiratory Depression
• Dysphoria (Stateof being
Unhappy)
• Dizziness
• Hypotension
• Skin Rashes
Contraindications
• Respiratory insufficiency
• Head injury
• Undiagnosed acute
abdomen
• Elderly males
Dosage
• 10-50mg
• 5 times daily
• No respiratory depression
until pain relief is there
Routes
• Oral
• Sc
• Intrathecal
• iv
TOLERANCE
• Tolerance is defined as the capacity of the body to
endure or become less responsive to a substance.
• Lethal dose of Morphine is 250 mg, addict can tolerate
morphine in gms .
DEPENDENCE
⚫Its ability to produce euphoria, makes it a drug of
addiction.
⚫Opioids produce both psychological and physical
dependence.
OTHER OPIOIDS
Heroin
It is converted to morphine in the
body.
It has higher lipid solubility.
It gives euphoric effects faster and
greater.
It is used as analgesics and banned in most
countries.
OTHER OPIOIDS
Codiene- It is Commonly used anti tussives. It is
also available with Paracetamol for analgesia.
Dexomethorphan -It acts centrally to elevate the
threshold forcoughing. It is effectiveas codeine.
Fentanyl
It is about 100 times more potent than morphine. It is
highly lipid solubleand fastacting.
Epidural fentanyl is used for postoperative and
obstetricanalgesia
Itcan also used in chronic pain .
-Routes – transdermal patches
ADVERSE EFFECT
Cough musclerigidity,
Nausea & Vomiting
Respiratory Depression
Tramadol
• Centrally acting atypical opiod
• it inhibits reuptake of NA and 5-HT, increases
5-HT release, and thus activates
monoaminergic spinal inhibition of pain
• i. v. I 00 mg tramadol is equianalgesic to IO mg
i.m. morphine.
• Oral bioavailability of
tramadol is good
• The t½ is 5-6 hours and
effects last for 4-6 hrs.
• Tramadol causes
insignificant respiratory
depression, sedation,
constipation or urinary
retention.
• nausea and dizziness may
be prominent.
• sleepiness, dry mouth,
sweating
• lowering of seizure
threshold, therefore
contraindicated in epileptics
• risk of 'serotonin syndrome‘
in patients on ssri
• Tramadol is indicated for mild-to-moderate
short-lasting pain
– due to diagnostic procedures, injury, surgery, etc,
as well as for chronic pain including cancer pain,
but is not effective in severe pain.
• Little tendency to dose escalation by chronic
users is seen and abuse potential is low.
• Dose: 50---100 mg oral/ i.m./slow i.v. infusion
(children I 2 mg/kg) 4 6 hourly.
• Roll in PMR
– Both nociceptive and neuropathic pain
– Chronic non malignant low back pain ( resistent to
nsaids)
– treating post herpetic neuralgia, phantom limb pain,
diabetic neuropathy, and polyneuropathy of various
etiologies
– American College of Rheumatology (ACR)
recommends tramadol for OA patients who failed to
achieve adequate benefit from nonnarcotic analgesic
medications
Tapentadol
• Newer atypical opiod
• Similar mechanism to tramadol
• useful alternative to tramadol for acute as well
as chronic pain of moderate severity. With less
nausea
• Dose· 50 I 100 mg 2-4 times/day.
Specific roll of opiods in PMR
• Post op analgesia- transdermal patches
• 2nd and 3rd line drugs for neuropathic pain
syndromes- phantom limb pain, diabetic
neuropathy
• Procedural pain
• Non productive cough suppression ( which
disturbs sleep)
• Diarrhoea treatment
NSAIDS
• Inflammation is the immediate response of our
body in response of harmful stimulus.
• The treatment of patients with inflammation
involves two primary goals
– Relief of symptoms and the maintenance of function:
usually the major continuing complaints of the patient;
– Slowing or arrest of the tissue-damaging process.
• Reduction of inflammation with NSAIDs often
results in relief of pain for significant periods
NSAID
• Aspirin, the original NSAID, has a number of adverse
effects.
• Many other NSAIDs have been developed in attempts
to improve upon aspirin’s efficacy and decrease its
toxicity.
• Although there are many differences in the kinetics of
NSAIDs, they have some general properties in common
• Most are well absorbed, and food does not
substantially change their bioavailability.
• Most are highly metabolized, some by
– Phase I followed by phase II mechanisms
– others by direct glucuronidation (phase II) alone
Pharmacokinetics
• NSAID metabolism proceeds, in large part, by way
of the CYP3A or CYP2C families of P450 enzymes
in the liver.
• While renal excretion is the most important
route for final elimination
• Nearly all undergo varying degrees of biliary
excretion and re-absorption
• Most of the NSAIDs are highly protein-bound
(∼ 98%), usually to albumin
• All NSAIDs can be found in synovial fluid after
repeated dosing
Pharmacodynamics
• Mediated chiefly through inhibition of prostaglandin
biosynthesis
• Various NSAIDs have additional possible mechanisms
of action
– inhibition of chemotaxis,
– down-regulation of interleukin-1 production,
– decreased production of free radicals and superoxide
– interference with calcium-mediated intracellular events
• NSAID’s may be either non-selective COX inhibitor or
preferentially/selective COX-2 inhibitor
Cyclooxygenase (COX)Pathway
Classification
• Non-selective COX inhibitors
– Salisylates Aspirin
– Propionic Acid derivatives: ibuprofen naproxen ketoprefen
flurbiprofen
– Anthranilc acid derivative: mephanamic acid
– Aryl-acetic acid derivative: Diclofenac aceclofenac
– Oxicam: piroxicam tenoxicam
– Pyrolo-pyrolle derivative: ketorolac
– Indole derivative: indomethacin
– Pyrozolone derivative: phenylbutazone oxyphenbutazone
• Preferentical COX-2 inhibitors Nimesulide, meloxicam,
nabumetone
• Selective COX-2 inhibitors: Celecoxib Etoricoxib parecoxib
• Analgesic-antipyretics
– Paraminophenol: Paracetamol
– Pyrozolone derivative: metamizol, propiphenazone
Prefferential/selective COX-2
inhibitors
• Do not affect platelet function at their usual
doses.
• Efficacy of COX-2-selective drugs equals that
of the older NSAIDs, while GI safety may be
improved.
• Selective COX-2 inhibitors may increase the
incidence of edema and hypertension.
– Only celecoxib has FDA approval
Adverse Effect
• Central nervous system: Headaches, tinnitus, and dizziness.
• Cardiovascular: Fluid retention, hypertension, edema, and
rarely, myocardial infarction, and congestive heart failure.
• Gastrointestinal: Abdominal pain, dysplasia, nausea, vomiting, and
rarely, ulcers or bleeding.
– all NSAID are gastric irritants and can be associated with GI ulcers to
some extent
• Hematologic: Rare thrombocytopenia, neutropenia, or even
aplastic anemia.
• Hepatic: Abnormal liver function tests and rare liver failure.
• Pulmonary: Asthma.
• Skin: Rashes, all types, pruritus.
• Renal: Renal insufficiency, renal failure, hyperkalemia, and
proteinuria
Aspirin
• Rarely used as an anti-
inflammatory
medication
• But it has proved to be
beneficial for CVS
patient in terms of its
anti-platelet effects
Other uses of Salicylates
• Salicylates are used to treat:
– rheumatoid arthritis
– juvenile arthritis
– osteoarthritis
– other inflammatory disorders
• 5-Amino salicylates (mesalamine, sulfasalazine):
Crohn's disease.
• Salicylic acid is used topically to treat:
– plantar warts
– fungal infections
– Corns
Adverse Effect
• Common side effects listed earlier
• Adverse effects at antithrombotic doses are
gastric upset (intolerance) and gastric and
duodenal ulcers
• Hepatotoxicity, asthma, rashes, GI bleeding,
and renal toxicity rarely if ever occur
at antithrombotic doses.
• Contraindicates its use by patients with
hemophilia
Adverse effects
• The use of aspirin and
other salicylates to
control fever during viral
infections in children and
adolescents is totally
contraindicated
• Is associated with an
increased incidence of
Reye's syndrome,
characterized by
– vomiting,
– hepatic disturbances,
– Encephalopathy that has a
35% mortality rate.
PROPIONIC ACID DERIVATIVES -
Ibuprofen
• Better tolerated alternative to aspirin
• All have similar pharmacodynamic properties
• But differ considerably in potency and to some extent
in duration of action.
• The analgesic, antipyretic and anti-inflammatory
efficacy is rated somewhat lower than high dose of
aspirin
• All inhibit PG synthesis: Naproxen being the most
potent
• Inhibition of platelet aggregation is short-lasting with
ibuprofen, but longer lasting with naproxen.
Clinical Use: Ibuprofen
• Available as an 'over-the-counter’ drug as 200
mg, 400 mg, 600 mg
• Used as a simple analgesic and antipyretic
• Effective in dysmenorrhoea
• Ibuprofen and its congeners are widely used in
rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis and other
mucoskeletal disorder
• indicated in soft tissue injuries, fracture, tooth
extraction and to relieve post- partum pain
Clinical Use: Ibuprofen
• oral and intravenous routes are
equally effective
• Topical cream preparation appears
to be absorbed into fascia and
muscle;
– Relieve joint pain in osteoarthritis
• A liquid gel preparation 400 mg,
provides prompt relief and good
overall efficacy in postsurgical
mucosal pain.
Adverse Effect
• Common adverse effects are already listed
• Contraindicated in individuals with nasal polyps,
angioedema, and bronchospastic reactivity to
aspirin
• Aseptic meningitis (particularly in patients with
systemic lupus erythematosus), and
fluid retention have been reported
• Concomitant administration of ibuprofen
and aspirin
– Antagonistic effect
Diclofenac
• Phenylacetic acid derivative
that is relatively non-
selective as a COX inhibitor.
• Its available as diclofenac
sodium salt.
• Antiplatelet action is short
lasting.
• T1/2 : 2 hrs
• Good tissue penetrability
Diclofenac – Clinical Use
• Most extensively used NSAID
• Combination of diclofenac and omeprazole: effective
with respect to the prevention of recurrent bleeding
– but renal adverse effects were common in high-risk
patients.
– Dosage above 150 mg/d: impair renal blood flow and
glomerular filtration rate
• Other combination includes ibuprofen+diclofenac:
excellent pain management
Diclofenac – Clinical Use
• Can be used after intraocular lens implantation
and strabismus surgery.
• Rectal suppository form can be considered for
preemptive analgesia and postoperative nausea
• Also available as an oral mouthwash and for
intramuscular administration
• osteoarthritis, bursitis, ankylosing spondylitis,
toothache, dysmenorrhoea - quick relief of pain
• Td patches- 1/3% diclofenac epolamine- used
for minor soft tissue injuries
KETOROLAC
• Novel NSAID with potent
analgesic and moderate
anti-inflammatory effect.
• In post operative pain it
has equivalent efficacy of
morphine
– But it does not interact
with opoid receptors and
is free of opioid side effect
KETOROLAC
• Rapidly absorbed after oral and i.m. administration.
• T1/2 5-7 hrs, highly plasma bound and 60% excreted
unchanged.
• Metabolic pathway is glucuronidation conjugation
• Clinical use
– frequently used in postoperative pain management: dental
• and acute musculoskeletal pain
– When used with an opioid, it may decrease the opioid
requirement by 25–50%.
• inflammatory conditions.
KETOROLAC – Clinical Use
• renal colic and pain due to bony metastasis
• Orally it is used in a dose of 10-20mg
• Rated superior to aspirin, paracetamol (600
mg) and equivalent to ibuprofen (400 mg)
• Continuous use for more than 5 day is not
recommended - renal toxicity
Paracetamol
• Acetaminophen: de-ethylated active
metabolite of phenacetin
• Central analgesic action of paracetamol is like
aspirin, i.e. it raises pain threshold
• It is a poor inhibitor of PG synthesis in
peripheral tissues, but more active on COX in
the brain.
• Its a good and promptly acting antipyretic, but
negligible anti-inflammatory action
Pharmacology
• Analgesic action of aspirin and paracetamol is
additive.
• Well tolerated orally, but only about 1/4th is
protein bound
• It is uniformly distributed in the body
• Metabolism occurs mainly by conjugation of
glucuronic acid and sulfate
• Plasma t1/2 2-3 hrs, effects after an oral dose last
for 3-5 hours
Routes
• Oral –tablet, syrup,
suspension
Dose
• 10-15 mg/kg 6th hourly for
pain.
Clinical Use
• One of the most commonly OTC drug for
analgesic: headache, migraine,
musculoskeletal pain, dysmenorrhea
• But is relatively ineffective when inlflamation
is prominent.
• First choice analgesic for osteoarthritis
• Drug of choice: as antipyretic, especially in
children (no risk of Reye's syndrome)
Clinical Use
• Equally efficacious as aspirin for non-
inflammatory conditions, without its side
effect
– Insignificant gastric irritation, mucosal erosion and
bleeding
– Occurs rarely in overdose.
– does not affect platelet function, clotting factors
– Used in combination with opiods
– Decrease dose requirement of both
Adverse Effect
• Safe and well tolerated
• Nausea and rashes occur occasionally and other side
effects are similar to other NSAID
• Analgesic nephropathy: after years of heavy use
– Personality defect.
– Pathological lesions like necrosis, tubular atrophy followed
by renal fibrosis
• Acute paracetamol poisoning: especially in small
children who have low hepatic glucuronide conjugating
ability.
• If a large dose > 150 mg/kg or > 10 g in an adult: serious toxicities
• Fatality is common > 250 mg/kg.
Celecoxib
• selective COX-2 inhibitor—about 10–20 times
more selective for COX-2 than for COX-1
• associated with fewer GI ulcers than most other
NSAIDs
• Probably because it is a sulfonamide, celecoxib may
cause rashes
• does not affect platelet aggregation at usual
doses.
• It interacts occasionally with warfarin
• Adverse effects are the common toxicities listed above.
• Use – in patients with concomitant use of other
anticoagulants, before spinal or intra articular
injections

nsaids and opiods in pmr

  • 1. ROLE OF OPIOIDS and NSAIDS IN PMR MODERATOR: • Dr Sandeep Kumar Gupt Assisstant prof DEPT OF PMR KGMU PRESENTED BY: • Dr Joe Antony JR1 DEPT OF PMR KGMU
  • 2. Contents • Opiods – Classification – Moa – Pharmacological action – Specific opiods • Nsaids – Classification – Moa – Pharmacological action – Specific drugs • Who pain ladder
  • 3. OPIODS ⚫Opiod analgesics are one of the oldest remedies for relief pain. ⚫Opium is obtained the dark brown from the poppy gummy capsule exudate (papaver somniferum) ⚫Opium has been in use since 4000BC.
  • 4. CLASSIFICATION Based on receptor occupation 1.Agonists A.Natural opium alkaloids Morphine ,codeine, B.Synthetic opioids Pethidine,Methadone 2.Antagonists Naloxone,naltrexone 3.Mixed agonist antagonists Pendazocine,nalpurine,butorphanol,Buprenorphine,nalorphine
  • 5. MORPHINE In CNS mu ( ),kappa( k)and delta( ) receptors Stimulationof opioid receptors (Morphine) Decrease the Intra cellular Calcium Level Decrease the release of Neurotransmitter It decreases the visceral Pain
  • 6. Pharmacological action ⚫1.Analgesia: Morphine is a potent analgesic and relieves pain without loss of consciousness.in higher doses it relieves severe pain as that of biliary colic. ⚫2.Euphoria ,sedation and hypnosis Rapid IV inj of morphine produces a warm flushing of the skin and an immensely pleasurable sensation. It also produces drowsiness
  • 7. 3.Respiration Morphine produce respiratory depression. It directlydepresses the respiratory center in the brain stem 4.Cough center Itdirectlydepress thecough center and thereby suppress cough.opioids should be used as antitussiveonly in the dry cough
  • 8. 5.Nausea and emesis Morphine directly stimulates the CTZ in the medula causing nausea and vomitting.in higher doses it depress the vomitting center and hence there is no vomitting in poisoning . 6.pupil Morphine produces miosis resulting in a characteristic pinpoint pupil in high doses. 7.vagus Morphine stimulates vagal center causing bradycardia.
  • 9. 8.Heat regulation Opioids shift the equlibirium point of heat regulating center so that body temperature falls slightly. 9.Truncal rigidity Higher dose of fentanyl found to enhance the tone of the large trunk muscles by acting at supraspinal levels. 10.Excitatory effect In high doses opioids produce convulsion
  • 10. • In therapeutic dose morphine produces hypotension by; • Direct peripheral vasodilatation. • Inhibition of baroreceptor reflexes. • In higher doses ,it causes depression of vasomotor center and histamine release both contributing to a fall in BP. Cardiovascular system
  • 11. • GIT Opioids decrease the motility of the gut. • Stomach Gasric motility is decreased resulting in increased gastric empting time.gastric acid secretion is reduced. • Intestine : Morphine diminises all secretions,delays digestion of food in the small intestine. • Other Smooth Muscles Biliary tract – Morphine causes spasm of the sphincter of Oddi.Atrophine partially antagonise this . Urinary Bladder and Ureter – Opioids inhibit urinary voiding reflex, as a result of this urinary retention occurs especially in the elderly males with Prostatic hypertrophy. Bronchi –Morphine causes release of histamine from the mast cells leads to broncho constriction.
  • 12. Adverse effects • Nausea, Vomiting • Respiratory Depression • Dysphoria (Stateof being Unhappy) • Dizziness • Hypotension • Skin Rashes Contraindications • Respiratory insufficiency • Head injury • Undiagnosed acute abdomen • Elderly males
  • 13. Dosage • 10-50mg • 5 times daily • No respiratory depression until pain relief is there Routes • Oral • Sc • Intrathecal • iv
  • 14. TOLERANCE • Tolerance is defined as the capacity of the body to endure or become less responsive to a substance. • Lethal dose of Morphine is 250 mg, addict can tolerate morphine in gms .
  • 15. DEPENDENCE ⚫Its ability to produce euphoria, makes it a drug of addiction. ⚫Opioids produce both psychological and physical dependence.
  • 16. OTHER OPIOIDS Heroin It is converted to morphine in the body. It has higher lipid solubility. It gives euphoric effects faster and greater. It is used as analgesics and banned in most countries.
  • 17. OTHER OPIOIDS Codiene- It is Commonly used anti tussives. It is also available with Paracetamol for analgesia. Dexomethorphan -It acts centrally to elevate the threshold forcoughing. It is effectiveas codeine.
  • 18. Fentanyl It is about 100 times more potent than morphine. It is highly lipid solubleand fastacting. Epidural fentanyl is used for postoperative and obstetricanalgesia Itcan also used in chronic pain . -Routes – transdermal patches ADVERSE EFFECT Cough musclerigidity, Nausea & Vomiting Respiratory Depression
  • 19. Tramadol • Centrally acting atypical opiod • it inhibits reuptake of NA and 5-HT, increases 5-HT release, and thus activates monoaminergic spinal inhibition of pain • i. v. I 00 mg tramadol is equianalgesic to IO mg i.m. morphine.
  • 20. • Oral bioavailability of tramadol is good • The t½ is 5-6 hours and effects last for 4-6 hrs. • Tramadol causes insignificant respiratory depression, sedation, constipation or urinary retention. • nausea and dizziness may be prominent. • sleepiness, dry mouth, sweating • lowering of seizure threshold, therefore contraindicated in epileptics • risk of 'serotonin syndrome‘ in patients on ssri
  • 21. • Tramadol is indicated for mild-to-moderate short-lasting pain – due to diagnostic procedures, injury, surgery, etc, as well as for chronic pain including cancer pain, but is not effective in severe pain. • Little tendency to dose escalation by chronic users is seen and abuse potential is low. • Dose: 50---100 mg oral/ i.m./slow i.v. infusion (children I 2 mg/kg) 4 6 hourly.
  • 22. • Roll in PMR – Both nociceptive and neuropathic pain – Chronic non malignant low back pain ( resistent to nsaids) – treating post herpetic neuralgia, phantom limb pain, diabetic neuropathy, and polyneuropathy of various etiologies – American College of Rheumatology (ACR) recommends tramadol for OA patients who failed to achieve adequate benefit from nonnarcotic analgesic medications
  • 23. Tapentadol • Newer atypical opiod • Similar mechanism to tramadol • useful alternative to tramadol for acute as well as chronic pain of moderate severity. With less nausea • Dose· 50 I 100 mg 2-4 times/day.
  • 24. Specific roll of opiods in PMR • Post op analgesia- transdermal patches • 2nd and 3rd line drugs for neuropathic pain syndromes- phantom limb pain, diabetic neuropathy • Procedural pain • Non productive cough suppression ( which disturbs sleep) • Diarrhoea treatment
  • 25. NSAIDS • Inflammation is the immediate response of our body in response of harmful stimulus. • The treatment of patients with inflammation involves two primary goals – Relief of symptoms and the maintenance of function: usually the major continuing complaints of the patient; – Slowing or arrest of the tissue-damaging process. • Reduction of inflammation with NSAIDs often results in relief of pain for significant periods
  • 26. NSAID • Aspirin, the original NSAID, has a number of adverse effects. • Many other NSAIDs have been developed in attempts to improve upon aspirin’s efficacy and decrease its toxicity. • Although there are many differences in the kinetics of NSAIDs, they have some general properties in common • Most are well absorbed, and food does not substantially change their bioavailability. • Most are highly metabolized, some by – Phase I followed by phase II mechanisms – others by direct glucuronidation (phase II) alone
  • 27. Pharmacokinetics • NSAID metabolism proceeds, in large part, by way of the CYP3A or CYP2C families of P450 enzymes in the liver. • While renal excretion is the most important route for final elimination • Nearly all undergo varying degrees of biliary excretion and re-absorption • Most of the NSAIDs are highly protein-bound (∼ 98%), usually to albumin • All NSAIDs can be found in synovial fluid after repeated dosing
  • 28. Pharmacodynamics • Mediated chiefly through inhibition of prostaglandin biosynthesis • Various NSAIDs have additional possible mechanisms of action – inhibition of chemotaxis, – down-regulation of interleukin-1 production, – decreased production of free radicals and superoxide – interference with calcium-mediated intracellular events • NSAID’s may be either non-selective COX inhibitor or preferentially/selective COX-2 inhibitor
  • 30. Classification • Non-selective COX inhibitors – Salisylates Aspirin – Propionic Acid derivatives: ibuprofen naproxen ketoprefen flurbiprofen – Anthranilc acid derivative: mephanamic acid – Aryl-acetic acid derivative: Diclofenac aceclofenac – Oxicam: piroxicam tenoxicam – Pyrolo-pyrolle derivative: ketorolac – Indole derivative: indomethacin – Pyrozolone derivative: phenylbutazone oxyphenbutazone • Preferentical COX-2 inhibitors Nimesulide, meloxicam, nabumetone • Selective COX-2 inhibitors: Celecoxib Etoricoxib parecoxib • Analgesic-antipyretics – Paraminophenol: Paracetamol – Pyrozolone derivative: metamizol, propiphenazone
  • 31. Prefferential/selective COX-2 inhibitors • Do not affect platelet function at their usual doses. • Efficacy of COX-2-selective drugs equals that of the older NSAIDs, while GI safety may be improved. • Selective COX-2 inhibitors may increase the incidence of edema and hypertension. – Only celecoxib has FDA approval
  • 32. Adverse Effect • Central nervous system: Headaches, tinnitus, and dizziness. • Cardiovascular: Fluid retention, hypertension, edema, and rarely, myocardial infarction, and congestive heart failure. • Gastrointestinal: Abdominal pain, dysplasia, nausea, vomiting, and rarely, ulcers or bleeding. – all NSAID are gastric irritants and can be associated with GI ulcers to some extent • Hematologic: Rare thrombocytopenia, neutropenia, or even aplastic anemia. • Hepatic: Abnormal liver function tests and rare liver failure. • Pulmonary: Asthma. • Skin: Rashes, all types, pruritus. • Renal: Renal insufficiency, renal failure, hyperkalemia, and proteinuria
  • 33. Aspirin • Rarely used as an anti- inflammatory medication • But it has proved to be beneficial for CVS patient in terms of its anti-platelet effects
  • 34. Other uses of Salicylates • Salicylates are used to treat: – rheumatoid arthritis – juvenile arthritis – osteoarthritis – other inflammatory disorders • 5-Amino salicylates (mesalamine, sulfasalazine): Crohn's disease. • Salicylic acid is used topically to treat: – plantar warts – fungal infections – Corns
  • 35. Adverse Effect • Common side effects listed earlier • Adverse effects at antithrombotic doses are gastric upset (intolerance) and gastric and duodenal ulcers • Hepatotoxicity, asthma, rashes, GI bleeding, and renal toxicity rarely if ever occur at antithrombotic doses. • Contraindicates its use by patients with hemophilia
  • 36. Adverse effects • The use of aspirin and other salicylates to control fever during viral infections in children and adolescents is totally contraindicated • Is associated with an increased incidence of Reye's syndrome, characterized by – vomiting, – hepatic disturbances, – Encephalopathy that has a 35% mortality rate.
  • 37. PROPIONIC ACID DERIVATIVES - Ibuprofen • Better tolerated alternative to aspirin • All have similar pharmacodynamic properties • But differ considerably in potency and to some extent in duration of action. • The analgesic, antipyretic and anti-inflammatory efficacy is rated somewhat lower than high dose of aspirin • All inhibit PG synthesis: Naproxen being the most potent • Inhibition of platelet aggregation is short-lasting with ibuprofen, but longer lasting with naproxen.
  • 38. Clinical Use: Ibuprofen • Available as an 'over-the-counter’ drug as 200 mg, 400 mg, 600 mg • Used as a simple analgesic and antipyretic • Effective in dysmenorrhoea • Ibuprofen and its congeners are widely used in rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis and other mucoskeletal disorder • indicated in soft tissue injuries, fracture, tooth extraction and to relieve post- partum pain
  • 39. Clinical Use: Ibuprofen • oral and intravenous routes are equally effective • Topical cream preparation appears to be absorbed into fascia and muscle; – Relieve joint pain in osteoarthritis • A liquid gel preparation 400 mg, provides prompt relief and good overall efficacy in postsurgical mucosal pain.
  • 40. Adverse Effect • Common adverse effects are already listed • Contraindicated in individuals with nasal polyps, angioedema, and bronchospastic reactivity to aspirin • Aseptic meningitis (particularly in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus), and fluid retention have been reported • Concomitant administration of ibuprofen and aspirin – Antagonistic effect
  • 41. Diclofenac • Phenylacetic acid derivative that is relatively non- selective as a COX inhibitor. • Its available as diclofenac sodium salt. • Antiplatelet action is short lasting. • T1/2 : 2 hrs • Good tissue penetrability
  • 42. Diclofenac – Clinical Use • Most extensively used NSAID • Combination of diclofenac and omeprazole: effective with respect to the prevention of recurrent bleeding – but renal adverse effects were common in high-risk patients. – Dosage above 150 mg/d: impair renal blood flow and glomerular filtration rate • Other combination includes ibuprofen+diclofenac: excellent pain management
  • 43. Diclofenac – Clinical Use • Can be used after intraocular lens implantation and strabismus surgery. • Rectal suppository form can be considered for preemptive analgesia and postoperative nausea • Also available as an oral mouthwash and for intramuscular administration • osteoarthritis, bursitis, ankylosing spondylitis, toothache, dysmenorrhoea - quick relief of pain • Td patches- 1/3% diclofenac epolamine- used for minor soft tissue injuries
  • 44. KETOROLAC • Novel NSAID with potent analgesic and moderate anti-inflammatory effect. • In post operative pain it has equivalent efficacy of morphine – But it does not interact with opoid receptors and is free of opioid side effect
  • 45. KETOROLAC • Rapidly absorbed after oral and i.m. administration. • T1/2 5-7 hrs, highly plasma bound and 60% excreted unchanged. • Metabolic pathway is glucuronidation conjugation • Clinical use – frequently used in postoperative pain management: dental • and acute musculoskeletal pain – When used with an opioid, it may decrease the opioid requirement by 25–50%. • inflammatory conditions.
  • 46. KETOROLAC – Clinical Use • renal colic and pain due to bony metastasis • Orally it is used in a dose of 10-20mg • Rated superior to aspirin, paracetamol (600 mg) and equivalent to ibuprofen (400 mg) • Continuous use for more than 5 day is not recommended - renal toxicity
  • 47. Paracetamol • Acetaminophen: de-ethylated active metabolite of phenacetin • Central analgesic action of paracetamol is like aspirin, i.e. it raises pain threshold • It is a poor inhibitor of PG synthesis in peripheral tissues, but more active on COX in the brain. • Its a good and promptly acting antipyretic, but negligible anti-inflammatory action
  • 48. Pharmacology • Analgesic action of aspirin and paracetamol is additive. • Well tolerated orally, but only about 1/4th is protein bound • It is uniformly distributed in the body • Metabolism occurs mainly by conjugation of glucuronic acid and sulfate • Plasma t1/2 2-3 hrs, effects after an oral dose last for 3-5 hours
  • 49. Routes • Oral –tablet, syrup, suspension Dose • 10-15 mg/kg 6th hourly for pain.
  • 50. Clinical Use • One of the most commonly OTC drug for analgesic: headache, migraine, musculoskeletal pain, dysmenorrhea • But is relatively ineffective when inlflamation is prominent. • First choice analgesic for osteoarthritis • Drug of choice: as antipyretic, especially in children (no risk of Reye's syndrome)
  • 51. Clinical Use • Equally efficacious as aspirin for non- inflammatory conditions, without its side effect – Insignificant gastric irritation, mucosal erosion and bleeding – Occurs rarely in overdose. – does not affect platelet function, clotting factors – Used in combination with opiods – Decrease dose requirement of both
  • 52. Adverse Effect • Safe and well tolerated • Nausea and rashes occur occasionally and other side effects are similar to other NSAID • Analgesic nephropathy: after years of heavy use – Personality defect. – Pathological lesions like necrosis, tubular atrophy followed by renal fibrosis • Acute paracetamol poisoning: especially in small children who have low hepatic glucuronide conjugating ability. • If a large dose > 150 mg/kg or > 10 g in an adult: serious toxicities • Fatality is common > 250 mg/kg.
  • 53. Celecoxib • selective COX-2 inhibitor—about 10–20 times more selective for COX-2 than for COX-1 • associated with fewer GI ulcers than most other NSAIDs • Probably because it is a sulfonamide, celecoxib may cause rashes • does not affect platelet aggregation at usual doses. • It interacts occasionally with warfarin • Adverse effects are the common toxicities listed above. • Use – in patients with concomitant use of other anticoagulants, before spinal or intra articular injections
