Pharmacological properties
Pharmacodynamics
Ibuklin Junior for children is a combined preparation, the action of which is due to the properties of its constituent components.
Paracetamol - has antipyretic and analgesic effects, indiscriminately blocks cyclooxygenase (COX).
Ibuprofen is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that also has analgesic and antipyretic effects. Its effect is due to the inhibition of COX-1 and COX-2 and a violation of the metabolism of arachidonic acid, thereby reducing the amount of prostaglandins (mediators of pain, inflammation and hyperthermic reaction). It has a suppressive effect on the exudative and proliferative phases of inflammation.
The combination of these substances is more effective in comparison with monotherapy with one of them.
Pharmacokinetics
Paracetamol is highly absorbed. Communication with plasma proteins - ˂ 10%. The maximum concentration is 5–20 μg / ml and is reached in 30–120 minutes. Able to cross the blood-brain barrier. Less than 1% of the dose taken is found in human milk. Metabolism of 90–95% of paracetamol occurs in the liver. The half-life is 2-3 hours. It is excreted mainly by the kidneys.
When taken orally, ibuprofen is rapidly and almost completely absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract (GIT). The maximum concentration of the substance is reached in 60-120 minutes. The half-life is about 2 hours. Communication with plasma proteins - ˃ 90%. Ibuprofen slowly penetrates into the joint cavity, accumulates in the synovial fluid, where its concentration is higher than in plasma. It is excreted mainly by the kidneys, as well as with bile.
