How Analgesine works

Analgesine is thought to act primarily in the CNS, increasing the pain threshold by inhibiting both isoforms of cyclooxygenase, COX-1, COX-2, and COX-3 enzymes involved in prostaglandin (PG) synthesis.

Food Interaction

  • Take with or without food. When taken after meals, the Cmax and Tmax of oral antipyrine are reduced, but the overall bioavailability is not significantly impacted.
