Naklofen injection solution 75 mg/3 ml in 3 ml ampoules in blister No. 5x1


Pharmacological properties of the drug Naklofen

Diclofenac ([o-(2,6 dichloroanilino)phenyl]acetate sodium salt) is an NSAID with pronounced anti-inflammatory, analgesic and antipyretic effects. The mechanism of action is associated with the inhibition of COX and the resulting disruption of prostaglandin synthesis. By blocking the synthesis of prostaglandins, diclofenac eliminates or significantly reduces the severity of symptoms of inflammation. Diclofenac reduces prostaglandin-induced increased sensitivity of nerve endings to mechanical stimuli and biologically active substances that are formed at the site of inflammation. Helps lower body temperature, preventing the effect of prostaglandins on the hypothalamic region of the thermoregulation process, reduces the concentration of prostaglandins in menstrual blood and the intensity of pain during primary dysmenorrhea. During treatment with diclofenac, the concentration of prostaglandins in the urine, gastric mucosa and synovial fluid decreases. During the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, the drug intensively penetrates into the joint cavity, reduces pain at rest and during movement, helps to increase the range of motion in the affected joints, and reduces morning stiffness and swelling of the joints. Naklofen is used to treat rheumatic diseases; to eliminate pain of any localization of various origins. The tablets are coated with an acid-resistant coating and dissolve after entering the intestines. Naklofen Duo contains diclofenac in the form of granules that are resistant to the action of gastric juice and prolonged-release granules, as a result of which the capsules have both rapid and prolonged action. Retard tablets are intended for long-term treatment. After oral administration, diclofenac sodium is rapidly absorbed in the duodenum and small intestine. Over 90% of the drug is absorbed, but due to metabolism during the initial passage through the liver, bioavailability is about 60%. About 99% of diclofenac binds to plasma proteins, mainly albumin. The half-life is 1–2 hours. More than 70% of diclofenac is excreted in the urine in the form of biologically inactive metabolites, only 1% is excreted unchanged. Diclofenac easily penetrates into the synovial fluid, where its concentration reaches 60–70% of the level in the blood serum. After 3–6 hours, the concentration of the drug and its metabolites in the synovial fluid is higher than in the blood serum. Diclofenac is eliminated from synovial fluid much more slowly than from blood serum.

It is especially not recommended to prescribe the drug in the third trimester of pregnancy, since the blockade of prostaglandin synthesis caused by it can lead to premature closure of the ductus arteriosus. It is recommended to stop breastfeeding while taking the drug. The drug may slightly affect the patient’s ability to drive and operate machinery. Patients with dizziness and central nervous system disorders should refrain from driving vehicles and working with potentially dangerous mechanisms.
